Travel Details

The journey from Faro airport should be no more than 20 mins. 

There are always plenty of taxis outside the arrivals terminal. The cost per car is 20-25€.

The house is in the old town of Olhão. Many of the taxi drivers know the house, but not all. If you put Casa Fuzetta into google maps, it will pop up and if you use What3words /// politics.times.mergers it will bring you straight to the front door. 

Otherwise, the GPS coordinates are 37.026272 -7.842708.

When you book you will have access to the  Casa Fuzetta app which contains dynamic maps.

If you are travelling from LISBON

Transport options are: coach, train, or private transfer all of which need a minimum of 3-3.5hrs.

NOTE: trains will be to Faro, from where a taxi on to Olhão will be needed for last leg of the journey (approx.20min).

The public bus/coach, which is highly rated,  goes from Lisbon Sete Rios (central area) to just around the corner from Casa Fuzetta  in Olhão- price currently approx 10-20€pp - see: https://rede-expressos.pt/en/timetables ). This is definitely the cheapest option. Takes the same amount of time as any of the other options and usually operates several times per day. 

For a private transfer from Lisbon Casa Fuzetta suggest speaking to Joao Cordeiro at Domitur Transfers.
