Simple question hopefully, the shuttle train I see in the square - where does it go and for what part of the season does it run ? Presumably it goes to a car park ?

It always used to go round the town, up to Rocha Brava and back. You can't get on or off during the trip, the taxi drivers complained. It also does a trip to Ferragudo on a couple of days. To be honest, I'm surprised it hasn't hibernated yet. It's a nice little trip round town.

Only 3 euros for about 45-60 minute ride around cvo, what a bargain

It's not a shuttle train - it is not licensed/allowed to pick up and drop off - the Taxi drivers saw to that :)

We have that in London - they are called taxis; and only £45-£60 for a 3 minute ride! :)

Tourist train without any commentary. Is worth the price. As the one who is usually driving , was nice to sit back and let the train take the strain!
