FARO PORTUGAL 2022 🇵🇹 | Is it WORTH VISITING?

Faro Portugal is the capital of the Algarve and is centrally located in the far southern region of Portugal. Faro is home to an international airport, bus, and train station and has access to one of the main hospitals in the area. This city is the hub for the entire region and an area you will most likely at least pass through when visiting the Algarve. We had traveled through Faro twice and until now never actually stopped to visit the city. So the big question - Faro Portugal is it worth visiting? In this video, we will take you through the old town, marina and shopping district, as well as head over by bus to Faro Island. We will share with you our final thoughts if we felt Faro would be on our list of places to see while visiting the Algarve. #portugal #travelportugal #algarveportugal

Faro is your main connection when flying into the Algarve as well if you are traveling by train to the far east or west end - you will change trains here. From here you can head east to the border town of Vila Real de Santo Antonio or to the furthest train stop to the west, Lagos. If your goal is to be in a central location to be able to explore all of the Algarve, this may be the best place to stay!

Is Faro Portugal the best place to visit in the Algarve, or at least add to your list of places to visit while here? Join us and decide for yourself!
Cheers!!!

Faro is the best day trip of the central Algarve region, and is highly recommended if you are on holiday to Albufeira, Vilamoura or Quarteira.

[KattieMetChris]

This may not be top of the list but all of the Algarve looks wonderful! Nice one guys 🤙🤙

Viva Faro! Una ciudad que merece ser conocida. Faro no es solo un aeropuerto amigos... En el Largo San Francisco fuera de la muralla hay casas super bonitas con azulejos y miles de colores. Hasta luego. Viva Faro!

[diogolucas]

Faro is not just about the beach and the airport, as you can see in the video. Faro is a historic city with a great history, Faro has a great culture, the best seafood in Portugal, that is, with great seafood restaurants. But of course if you don't appreciate these things of course it's not recommended to come to Faro. Faro is for more people who like history and culture and from what they made clear in the video, this is not the case for you, since they didn't say anything about it in the video

Luv it! Thanks. I’m going to Faro for 2 weeks and taking it slow lol :)

[cherokesky]

Without saying it you have demonstrated the benefits of the slow travel life. Not the top of your list however another adventure and what appears to be a nice relaxing day. Can't It's hard not to jump the gun prematurely....

My husband went to Portugal for two weeks in 2023 September and then we went to Madeira for a week. We did go to Faro and under the archway or actually above the arch way of the city you just went into. I’m watching right now those nests were so huge for storks. It was crazy.😊 we loved Cascias (ocean town) and Porto, Douro Valley.

[maypage]

Thank you do We where looking forward to this

[Norwood]

Enjoy your videos! I hope you make a trip to Tarragona, 🇪🇸. The surrounding area was interesting.

[OpenRehearsal]

I’ll say hi if I see you pas in Lagos! I love here, nice Faro vid, always wondered what the beach was like out Pat the lagoon :)

[iancrawford]

We visited Faro back in February, we were underwhelmed - we never made it to the beach though and that looked nice. We went on to Evora, Douro valley, Porto & Lisbon - found Porto & Lisbon very expensive (especially accommodation). Loved Carvoeiro - very high ex-pat population, , ,

[alexsumbati]

Hi guys, good to see you in another part of the world. I was in Portugal in 2018 attending the International Living Conference in CARVOEIRO. A well run conference with a ton of information for those interested in relocating to the country. Whilst I loved Lisbon and Cascais the most, I found the Algarve region a bit too quiet for my liking.The conference also organised a viewing of several apartments for sale and again I did not express a WOW feeling for any of them. Perhaps they were only trying to show us the cheaper end of the market to make the point that Real Estate in Portugal is Very AFFORDABLE.

[AdrianoStAubyn]

In Faro you can see, perhaps, the only train bridge in the world that prevents boats from leaving the marina at high tide. It's a tourist attraction.

[PretzelKid]

You guys must walk 7 miles a day easy????

[tozomona]

I hear it gets really hot in the summer. How hot does it get? In F please.

[johnkeith]

Thank you for the continuing tour of the Algarve. What we have been surprised about is the lack of people/ tourist. Is it true that the crowds mainly show up in July and august based on your experience/understanding? If yes, are you seeing a lot of seasonal closures even in June?

I have been told the average Portuguese is friendlier (and speaks better English) than the average Spaniard.
I realize it's a compromising question, but according to your own experience, would you say that's true?
Thanks!
