Great place for a walk and to enjoy the local architecture. And it is not over busy regardless Faro being quite a touristic town. I recommend going on a Ferris wheel for even more goo views. Full review by CassimaSK

We really enjoyed walking around. There were some street performers, lots of shops and restaurants. Glad we went. We parked on top of hill next to a small bar. Paid parking Full review by BRUNO G

One of the easiest places to get around. We arrived at the railway station from Tavira, walked a little then got on the little train that takes you on a tour of the city. Its very easy and cheap.
We are here in Tavira, visiting for the first time. We would like to take the bus to Faro for a day trip. First of all we need to find the bus stop or terminal and the times of the buses ... we're wondering how far the Faro bus station is from the old, historic area.
A:
We jumped a taxi from Cabanas, try the train, you may find its a bit quicker?
Is Faro suitable for 5-day city break? Is there enough to do?
A:
Faro is a great place to stay. You can get to the beach and visit the old town. There is the new MAR shopping centre near Loule and Loule town is a great place to visit
