Travelling to and around the Algarve is a very simple process.
Flights into the region arrive at Faro airport and are available from most major airports around the world, making it the quickest and easiest way to travel.
Although that is not the only way to get there. By being part of mainland Europe, it is a driveable destination through either Spain or Portugal itself, and you can also travel by boat or ferry by using the Port of Portimao.

Once in the Algarve, getting around is just as simple.
There is a wide range of public transport which is reasonably priced and very efficient.
There is a train service from Vila Real de Santo to Lagos that stops off at all the major towns along the way.
There is also a comprehensive network of buses that cover the whole region, including the smaller villages.
And if that's not enough, the mini-cabs are well priced and easily found in all major town centres and resorts.
But for those who prefer to travel around without the hustle and bustle of public transport, car hire is a viable option.
Driving in the Algarve isn't too difficult to get along with, aslong as you remeber the cars drive on the right hand side of the road.
