Car Hire Faro

Cheap Car Rental in Faro

Though many people stop only briefly in Faro before moving on to the famous beaches of the Algarve, the city is in fact a great place to spend a few days. Whitewashed houses and streets lined with flower baskets cluster around the Old Town (Cidade Velha), while a good selection of vibrant bars and excellent restaurants can be found throughout Faro. A bizarre and unforgettable attraction is the macabre Capela d’Ossos (The Chapel of Bones) where the walls are lined with over twelve hundred human skulls! The impressive cathedral (Sé) is another fine building constructed in both Renaissance and Gothic styles. Escape the heat and buzz of the city in its cool, beautiful cloisters or take a look at the ornate old tiles and sculptures. Of course, you may just want to sip a cold drink by Faro’s fishing harbour and watch the world go by!

Faro by Car: Great Sights at Bargain Prices

It’s well worth hiring a car and taking a daytrip to enjoy the wonderful natural beauty of the Ria Famosa, a lush and serene lagoon where thousands of flamingos and other bird species congregate and feed. Another fascinating place to visit is the nearby town of Olhao, with its almost cubist Moorish architecture and boisterous (somewhat pungent!) fish markets!
