The Algarve is the beautiful southern coastline of Portugal. This area is home to some beautiful beaches, picturesque fishing towns and has an amazing climate all year round. All these attributes make the Algarve the perfect holiday destination.
So how is it like now that COVID has hit the world?
Well, it’s pretty much the same. The Faro district, where Algarve is, is one of the regions with the lowest number of cases in the country. As long as you take safety precautions, you will be fine.
Safety precautions
The Portuguese government urges people to maintain a 2-metre distance wherever possible. Face masks are mandatory in public areas. In Portugal these legally must be worn in areas such as public transport (the police often come on these to ensure that everyone is abiding by this); wash and disinfect your hands as often as possible, especially when visiting and using public facilities.
How does this affect your travel with us?
At Portugal Airport Transfer, your safety and confidence are extremely important to us and for this reason, our drivers will wear their masks and carry out appropriate sanitation practices. We also would ask you to sit in the back seats to maintain a distance from your driver. Apart from this, our services are still delivered at a high standard.

-
Caves
Both the Benagil and Zorreira caves are a top destination for tourists and it’s not hard to see why. We can drive you to the coast where you can kayak or take a boat to reach them.
-
Beaches

-
Lagos - São Lourenço Church
Located in the Almancil area. This church was built in the 17th century and is still something to marvel at today. Why don’t you let us take you there to see for yourself? The Lagos old town is also worth a stroll around and it’s the home of so many beautiful historic buildings.
