Where to Visit in the Algarve by Faro Airport Car Hire
September 1, 2010
When you visit Faro in the Algarve there are well known tourist attractions and some not so well known tourist attractions – all of these will be easier to reach if you do decide to take out Faro Airport Car Hire from Logan. Some sites will say that some of the tourist attractions are over rated. I think you should make up your own mind about what you think is over rated, as everyone’s opinion will be different. I hope this information I have collated will be of use to you as you travel around The Algarve.
Use Faro Airport Car Hire to go to the Beach
There are always beaches that you will find easier to reach if you take faro airport car hire. What I like about this flexibility is that you can travel between beaches on the same day if you find that one is more busy than you would like or you want to make the most of your days and fit a lot of site seeing into your trip.
The Old City is accessible with Faro Airport Car Hire
The Old City district also known as either the ‘Centro Historico’ or the ‘Cidade Velha’ is a place where you can see some history and get a real understanding of the culture of Faro.
Your Faro Airport Car Hire can take you to the lively Harbour
If you are looking for nice cafes to chill out in or people watch then the harbour has to be the place to head to. It is also a hive of activity in the evenings and a great place to socialise.
These are only a few suggestions as to how much having a car can open up your trip to Portugal and the Algarve. Check out the great prices on our Faro Airport Car Hire booking engine.

Booking your People Carrier or Minivan at Faro Airport with Logan Car Hire
July 27, 2009
Travel is an important part of any holiday, but even more so if there are several people travelling together. At certain times of the year there can be a shortage of larger vehicles for hire at Faro Airport. This is usually due to the popularity of this size of vehicle for parties of 5 persons or more. You should think now about your car hire requirements for your next trip to the Faro region.
Those experienced in hiring a car at Faro or from other airports in Portugal may well have experienced the challenges involved when trying to fit 5 adults and 5 large pieces of luggage along with everyone’s hand baggage into a 5 seater car. If you also have a child seat or baby carriage to add to your already heavily laden car, this can make for a very stressful and uncomfortable journey.
As you and your passengers travel from Faro Airport to your destination, make sure you will all have enough leg room to enjoy the start of your vacation. You may also be using the car you hired to take you around Faro and booking the right size of vehicle can help to make your stay in Faro much more enjoyable for everyone.
You can use your vehicle to travel along the coastal routes to other beaches and beauty spots and go sightseeing at the many attractions, castles, museums, towns and villages that are in the surrounding areas of Faro and Portugal.
If you are on a golfing or sporting holiday, you may need extra space for all of your sporting equipment, wither you bring it with you or rent if while you are in the Faro region. Don’t forget about the extra space you might need for gifts you buy while touring around the Faro area.
You can book a seven seater (7 seater) people carrier, an eight seater (8 seater) or even a nine seater (9 seater) minivan. These are always very popular and do go very fast, so don’t leave it until nearer your holiday time before making your booking. You could find there are no people carrier or minivans available at Faro Airport and you might have to travel to Faro itself or even further afield to be able to collect your vehicle.
