I wonder will anyone be able to help me. Next year i am staying one week in Lagos and one week in Carvoeiro I thinking of getting a train from Lagos to Estombar station can anyone tell me how long the journey is, approx how much it will cost (one way) and if it is possible to get a taxi from there to take me to my villa, I thought the ride might be scenic or would it be cheaper and a lot less hassle just to get a taxi or two from Lagos (there are 10 of us travelling). Thanks in advance.

Loretta, try this link and watch out for the English version. Not sure how much but I do know it's pretty cheap. You could always arrange one of the CVO mini bus companies to pick you all up as I don't think there's a cab company at Estombar. www.cp.pt and go to timetables.

Dont even think about a cab - use the train- its fun, punctual, clean and cheap (eg Algoz to Faro - about 45km €2.20 one way).

The website link you have been given works well and there is an english language option

Thanks both of you for you swift replies.

How you doing Loretta? Bet youre looking forward to that hol next year? sounds good one ..ellie
