scottincarlisle Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 There are many taxi/mini buses that operate around Faro airport that will gladly shuttle people back & forward to match. Contact your accommodation for a recommendation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arbroath55 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I've also got a price for an 8 seater which comes in at 40 euros and the guy ( Yellowfish Transfers ) has 2 of them. Two of those running from Olhao looks as if they would have the capacity for everybody on here and would be less of a financial risk than taking a 26 seater or 50 seater.

Guy I've booked it with is Yellow Fish Transfers algarve@yellowfishtransfers.com The price given is (per vehicle): 1-4pax - 30,00 5-8pax - 40,00 If it's 16pax, so it's 80eur each way (5eur per person) Please let us know if you wish to go ahead with the booking.

gallus79 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Arrive in Olhao Friday late afternoon. Also looking to cadge a lift to and from stadium. Just needing one space, cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoopyhill Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 We arrived last night and the Real Marina apartments are pretty impressive. I've arranged a taxi through them to and from the stadium, we will be heading down a wee bit early to have a look at the fan zone and returning right after the match. It's not cheap at €70 return and there is 1 space available (€17) if anyone needs it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arbroath55 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Olhao = nice wee town, the locals were a bit bemused with kilts wandering through the fish market, everywhere we went we were welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Went to Olhao today. 1:40 euro on train from Faro. Beautiful little town. Had lunch up a side street in a cafe full of locals. Great service & value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
