Alicante to Faro

I am trying to find a way of getting from Alicante to Faro in August this year, for myself, wife and two children.

Car hire is only possible from the big companies and they charge a drop off fee of over 600 euros.

Is there either a train or bus service that links these two towns? If there is, how long does it take and how expensive is it?

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Jamie

Hi Jamie,

Difficult and a LONG WAY, even driving would take you 8 - 10 hours!

Flights may be the best bet, info here..

Hi Jamie

There are not any trains (that I know off, 99% sure) between Seville and Faro, so although you could get a train (with changes) between Alicante and Seville you would have to get the coach from there.

I have just checked the Spanish Train website and cant find any details of trains between Alicante and Seville, here is a link for the site in English, it may be better to call them as they could suggest a train route, via Madrid I imagine...

I hope this helps you
