Hi everyone,
Re: Taxi Transfers from Faro Airport - Riu Atlantico, Isla Canela, Spain
I'm hoping Cubis is online actually as he seems to know loads about portugal.
I'm trying to arrange taxi transfers for my parents from Faro Airport to Isla Canela Spain.
I have rcvd several quotes from what I can see are reputable companies fully insured and registered and was just wondering whether anyone could shed some light. I have read many good reports about Alan ownersinportugal, however he does seem to be the most expensive at 170 Euros return but discounted to 150 Euros for April! It does say on his website that they sometimes price match but unfortunately Ive not heard back from him for a couple of days.
Quotes received are as follows;
njoyportugal 108 euros Return
algarvetransfersdirect 110 Euros Return
low-cost-transfers 114 euros Return
faroairporttransfers116 euros Return
bravotur 120 euros return
ttaxi 140 euros Return
Alan at happyguest 170 Euros return (discounted to 150 Euros return for April)
Can anyone advise from experience whether the Taxis at the airport are more expensive or approx. the same.
Many Thanks
Bridgette

There is an Isla Canela website, run by an apartment owner, Can anyone advise from experience whether the Taxis at the airport are more expensive or approx. the same.
... Almost invariably more expensive than a pre-booked transfer.
We go to costa esuri which is on they way to IC but find it easier to hire a car would this be an option.
Are the roads from the airport into Spain and on towards Isla Canela very good? What are teh approx rates for car hire and coudol you recommend a good company?
Bridgette, the roads are fabulous and it's a pleasant and direct drive from Faro airport to Isla Canela. I would say it'll take about 1-1.5 hours max, as you'll obviously be taking it a little more careful, unknown route and roads etc, I do the same drive quite regularly and have done the drive in about 45 minutes. I would happily recommend economy car hire, based in UK, all inclusive rates, and I either book via them or direct with TravelRent. Costing depends upon the time of year, with the usual seasonal charges, but you are covered for 2 drivers, all inclusive, and OK to take the car into Spain. Hope this helps. Regards, Scoyas.
