Private rides between Algarve towns
Dinner in Lagos, a beach near Tavira, a move from Albufeira to a villa in Carvoeiro — a private car door to door, with the price agreed before you go.
Public transport between Algarve towns is limited in the evening and taxis can be hard to find at closing time. Booking a return at the time you want to leave means nobody has to stay sober to drive, and the whole group travels together.

Frequently asked questions
Can the driver bring us back afterwards?
Yes — book a return trip and choose the time you want to be picked up. The return is a separate ride on the same booking, so you are not paying for a driver to wait while you play or explore.
Is the price per person?
No — it is per vehicle, so a group travelling together pays one price. The booking form only shows vehicles where your whole group fits.
Who drives me?
Every ride booked on Ride the Algarve is contracted and provided by About Rides, a private transfer company operating across Portugal. Your booking, payment, cancellation terms and support are with About Rides.
