I thought I would check the cost of Yellowfish,for use in the future.10 Euro dearer than hiring a car for 5 days,& that was not the cheapest car. ------------- He Who Dies With The Most Toys Wins |

And €10 more than Funny Orange. I've always used Yellowfish for their reliability. They have always been bang on time. But now I'm thinking about F.O. Anyone have experience of them? Please don't suggest hiring a car. As I don't have a licence the GNR would take a dim view of me doing so. ------------- It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an Airport' appear. Douglas Adams |

Jock never used funny orange but I know the couple who own it........or I did years ago when they worked in Coyote Bar.....Paulo & Angela and a nicer couple you could not meet. I would imagine the company will be well run.

Hi all, I normally use yellow fish or hire a car but would be interested in any more feed back on Funny Orange please. Booked a late short break for this weekend and thinking of giving them a try, dont think I’ll use a car on this trip 🍺🍺😁 Thanks |

Hi all, Have used FO on my last 3 trips to Albufeira. Nothing but good things to say about them really. Will certainly be using them again in April when I return! Highly recommended.

Absolutely spot on used them to and from airport as we were going back to UK for 14 days so worked out cheaper. Booked online private pick up 27 euros each way for 1-4 persons.. Waiting for us at airport for pick up and waiting ten minutes early for us for return. They use A22. Drivers both ways were not crazy like a lot are that drive those transfers. Nothing but thumbs up from me.

I can report back that all went well with Funny Orange transfer this morning. Lovely lad called Tiago was my driver. If the return is as good I will definitely be using them again. |

Always travelled with Yellowfish but this time I'm going to bite the bullet and try Funny Orange. I've always been completely happy with YF but FE are €12 cheaper. One question. Do they
email the day before to confirm date and time of return pickup as
Yelllowfish do? If they don't I'll probably phone them the day before to check that they're coming to get me. I'm a nervous traveller! ------------- It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an Airport' appear. Douglas Adams |

Yes Alex, slightly cheaper and same service. I also recommend Mywaytransfers algarve run by a guy called Eddie whos family run the Solcaffe In Oura/st Eulalia. Great service, very mannerly and drives who don't go mad on the road. They can be slightly cheaper than both the others, ask for a quote . He has a website https://mywayalgarve.business.site/ and also a facebook page where he will answer your request very quickly. https://www.facebook.com/mywaytransfers/ ------------- Polli the dancing cat strikes again. |

Just back. Funny Orange were perfect. Turned up for the return pickup slightly ahead of time which suits me. I did, though, phone the day before to confirm the pickup. I'd be happy to pay for a confirmation text. ------------- It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an Airport' appear. Douglas Adams |
