Faro Airport: Transfers To and From Luz, Algarve

Faro Airport Transfers Praia da Luz Private Door-to-Door Taxi Service

For any traveler arriving at Faro Airport, a smooth transfer to Praia da Luz should be the perfect introduction to your holiday in the Algarve. Our private transfer service is tried and true between Faro Airport (FAO) and Luz, whether you are needing a relaxing arrival or a return trip to the airport. Our fixed rates, door-to-door convenience, and driver's knowledge of every twist and turn on the A22, means everything is quick, comfortable and on schedule.

Why Private Transfers Beat the Alternatives for Praia da Luz

Most passengers arriving into Faro Airport have the same goal: they want to get from Faro to Luz Airport without delays, transfers or hidden charges. The public Aerobus or Vamus local buses with luggage transfer at Lagos and taxi or Aonda transfers, can turn an hour's trip into 2 or 4 hours. Shared shuttles incur waiting and detours. Public taxis from the rank can be punching your wallet with a higher metered rate when you factor-in luggage and extras.

Our private transfer avoids all this. You're off the plane, you see your driver's name sign and off to your destination in Praia da Luz, be it a hotel on the front door on the promenade, a villa close to Rocha Negra, or a holiday apartment in the centre of the village. No ride sharing, no queues, and complete flexibility for delay times.

How Far Is Faro Airport from Praia da Luz?

88-90 km is the approximate distance via the A22 motorway and other roads. With light traffic this takes 70-90 minutes. We have real-time traffic data and other slow non-busy streets to ensure no delay around Porto de Mos or Meia Praia.
