plenty of info here Ronnie

There is a bus service from Portimao to Carvoeiro (Carvalho is end of line), afaik if you get a 'through' bus to Portimao the one ticket cover the journey, if however you have to change bus in Lagoa its another fare. looks like plenty of connections from Lagoa to Armacao or Lagos.

Ronnie, we got taxis from/to Portimao and Lagoa in the past. They cost approx 20 euro and 8 euro respectively as far as I can recall.

Haven't got a taxi to Armacao de Pera but did cycle there and it seemed to be a little longer distance than from CVO to Portimao so the taxi fare should be small bit higher.

The above prices were daytime so I assume if it is at night it would cost a little more. Hope this helps.

I would say that is about right Ronnie, it did seem to be a bit longer than the distance to Portimao.
