CAR HIRE
Car hire is widely available at Faro Airport through all popular companies.
We have had no issues driving in the local area.
Taxis and Ubers π
There are usually taxis at the airport, but if you arrive at a busy time there can be a bit of a wait. Just come out of arrivals and head to the right for the taxi rank.
Taxi ranks can also be found within the resorts and in tourist areas such as the water parks, shopping centres etc.
Uber and Bolt are available in the area. We usually find them to be reliable and well-priced. However, as with anywhere there can be availability issues. Some patience may be required!
