Would appreciate if someone can advise how long it would take to drive to Lisbon. Will be in Carvoeiro in Sept and kind of interested in doing this trip.

Otherwise is it the type of trip that would be nice by train?

Where would you hook up with a train for such a service. Have 2 children so considering easiest options.

Cannot wait to return to Carvoeiro.... was there 2 yrs ago for honeymoon and loved it!!!!

Hello g g
The reporter for Daily Mirror said he drove from Lisbon to Faro in 2 hours.
If you scroll back on these pages you should find topic by Martin with info on train service. Good luck!

We have driven from Lisbon to Carvoeiro a couple of times and averaged around 2 hours without stops.

It costs about 18 euros in tolls on the new road, but I think it is worth it.
