What Car Rental Faro Agencies are in Faro Airport?

Car rental Faro is one of the best ways to get around the Algarve.  If you’re in a dilemma as to whether to take public transport or to rent a car, car hire is by far your safest bet.

You may associate the Algarve with sun, sand, sea and golf but there’s so much more to see.

When you land in Faro airport, you’ll find car hire agencies located in the arrivals hall. 

The Algarve is home to myriad towns and villages that have escaped unscathed from the region’s mass tourism boom.  Getting around with a rental car allows you to visit places such as Tavira (36.9km from Faro) – a picturesque old town that stands either side of the River Gilao.  The town provides a wonderful escape from the overcrowded beaches of Albufeira and Praia da Rocha.  Another destination well worth travelling to is Loulé  (16.9km from Faro) – a charming little market town where you can enjoy hearty local dishes such as ‘caldeirada’ fish stew.

No round up of off-the-beaten track Algarve day trips would be complete without mentioning the town of Monchique (85.4km from Faro).  Located in the magical woodland setting of the Serra de Monchique, this village manages to retain the friendly atmosphere of a by-gone age without giving in to twee commercialism.

Those looking for car rental Faro bargains will find price comparator sites offer the best value for money. All you have to do is enter your location, times and dates and they search and compare a range of car rental suppliers for the best availability.
