I will check the links you have mentioned and book my flights around those times.

I will no doubt be back if I may to further pick your brains if and when :)

Thank you so much

The winter timetable for Aerobus has only those two a day, one at 1115 and one at 1815. You would almost certainly not make the 1115. Complete timetable at http://www.algarvebus.info/101.htm

Should by some miracle you do, get off at Albufeira, 1200, and then take the 1245 number 13 bus to Armação de Pêra.

The alternative is go on the local number 16 bus to Faro terminal at 1135 or 1205. That takes about 20 minutes, so you could make the number 57 Transrápido bus to Armação de Pêra at 1230. The next direct bus after that isn't until 1445, so time for lunch in Faro perhaps?

PS it's cash only on the buses except with pre paid VAMUS passes, which you won't have. At Albufeira, you buy your ticket inside the building at the ticket counter to your left as you go in from where the buses are.

Complete times Faro to AdeP www.algarvebus.info/002w.htm and coming back www.algarvebus.info/002e.htm

The only other buses at Armação de Pêra are the infrequent weekdays only route 31 to Silves - http://www.algarvebus.info/014.htm

Weekend bus service is now almost non existent. The bus company used the excuse of the so called pandemic to stop running them and most never came back.

Am spending 3 weeks in Armação de Pêra and will be using bus services to get around rather than driving.
