- Kathy S8 contributionsBest transfer in AlgarveI always use yellow fish to transfer to, and from the airport when visiting Albufeira and other places in Portugal, usually my friend books it but this time I did, and the process was very simple. The drivers are very punctual. They turn up, greet you with a smile help you with your luggage. The car is always clean and big enough for what you have as they ask you roughly what you will be bringing at the point of booking. On our return journey the driver arrived in plenty of time and even helped me with my dreadful pronunciation of Portuguese that I have been trying to learn, Elvis you are an asset to your company and I hope that that is appreciated. We had a very enjoyable transfer time with you. having said that we have never had a bad driver with yellow fish. They are all friendly and all of them speak English and I am sure other languages much better than me who struggles to learn just one . Highly recommend yellowish.Visited October 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 6 October 2023
- kathi1199Widnes, United Kingdom37 contributionsGreat transferBrilliant reliable company. We usually end up on a coach transfer when we go on holiday but wanted something more direct. Communication was fantastic, drivers where friendly and safe, and the cars where spotless. Wouldnt use any other fransfer company when we returnVisited October 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 7 October 2023
- Charmaine S1 contributionExcellent Service, Doing so many things right!I was searching for a transfer for a recent business trip in Portugal and I came across Yellowfish. After reading the great comments I decided to book. I am very impressed with the ease of booking, the ability to reach customer service and their quick response time, clean vehicles, timely service, pleasant drivers and consistency. I needed to make a request for them to pick me up and take me to another hotel but wasn’t able to get that done on the website. I sent an email to the office and they literally held my hand through the entire process. 10 points Yellowfish. I highly recommend this company. They are a little pricier than if you take an independent taxi but well worth it for the service and ease.Visited October 2023Travelled on businessWritten 7 October 2023
- dave mSt Ives, United Kingdom7 contributionsFirst ClassMy trip from my hotel in Burgau to Faro Airport was faultless. The booking online was easy, I was kept informed before the trip and he was there spot on time for my pick-up. I have mobility issues and your driver took my baggage from my hotel to the vehicle and assisted me into the car. We had a friendly conversation throughout the journey during which he spoke very good English whilst also improving my limited Portuguese. At the Airport he was able to locate my Special Assistance and wait with me until they arrived. I found the entire trip an enjoyable experience and competitively priced.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten 7 October 2023

- judith lManchester, United Kingdom136 contributionsGood Reliable Service.First time I have used Yellowfish Transfers but would use again. On arrival the driver was waiting in the terminal with our name on a board as promised. We were driven to Cabanas and on arrival at the apartment the driver made sure we were at the correct block of apartments before departing. On collection day, the driver arrived 10 minutes early . I received text message reminders before each trip which was great. The drivers were friendly and the vehicles clean.Visited October 2023Travelled with familyWritten 16 October 2023

There's a reason why this firm gets so many good reviews. We booked a transfer from Faro to Quinta do Lago, and subsequently booked the return journey at the end of our holiday. In both cases the driver was ready and waiting for us ahead of time, and was unfailingly friendly and polite. The vehicles were spacious, comfortable and clean.
Before we booked the return leg, we briefly toyed with the idea of getting an Uber to the airport in case it was significantly cheaper (taxis were a no-go as these were much more expensive). However, pre-booking an Uber wasn't much cheaper, and we weren't sure whether our luggage would all fit (with Yellowfish you specify what luggage you're taking so that they bring an appropriately sized vehicle). We didn't want to risk trying to get an Uber without pre-booking, as we weren't sure what the availability would be like that early in the morning. So we booked the return with Yellowfish again and were really glad that we did. Our driver was a lovely guy who asked us about where we had been during our trip and gave us lots of interesting additional information about those places, turning a functional journey into a very enjoyable experience. Would use again without hesitation.

Our first visit to the Algarve Post covid. We used the scheduled bus service from the airport to Albufiera. While this went very well it was not much cheaper than using Yellowfish both ways. We booked a transfer back at the end of our stay, and as usual received the great service that we have come to expect from this company. I can't reccomend highly enough.

12 Golf Buddies headed out from Liverpool to Faro Airport on Our way to Amendoeira Golf Resort.
Yellowfish collected Us & 12 Golf Bags and whisked Us from the airport to Our Golf destination.
They were ready & waiting for Us as We emerged from Arrivals and escorted Us to 2 very comfy Minibuses with ample room for both Golf & Hand luggage.
No delay and on Our Way.
For Our return Flight they were bang on time to collect Us and drop Us ready for Bag Drop.
Yellowfish Website was utter simplicity to use and the price was calculated instantly.
Yellowfish was the best price by far and no secret hiden extras because Yellowfish included everything exactly as their bright & lively website says.
Thanks Guys, You are FIRST CLASS !
See You on Our next trip.

We booked Yellowfish transfers for a journey from Faro airport to Alvor late in the evening @ 1030 at night. They were super-friendly and efficient, and easy to spot as we came out of the luggage collection point into the arrivals area of the airport. The journey passed with the minimum of fuss and we reached our destination safely and securely. Much better than queuing to pick up a hire car, which can be done more easily the following day in resort, especially when you have tired young children just recovering from a late evening flight. Highly recommended.

Amazing service from start to finish!
Due to my lack of organisation I left the booking quite late and only booked a few days in advance, but that wasn’t an issue.
I travelled with 5 other adults from Faro to Lagos and we had a private transfer.
The communication/messages from Yellowfish gave you complete confidence in their service, they were on time, helpful, friendly and I would 100% recommend to anyone and definitely book with them again.

We have been using Yellowfish Transfers for a number of years now, but this time our flight arrived earlier than planned, We got into the arrivals Hall heading straight to our driver Rui, who promptly took our luggage from us and got us on the way to our hotel. Rui was caring and considerate an all round lovely bloke, Once at the hotel he opened the doors for us and put our luggage into the hotel reception.
Our return 8 days later, to our surprise we had the same driver Rui, who again loaded our luggage and got us on route to the airport. Again a lovely transfer.
Now Yellowfish,
I honestly can't rate this company highly enough, we had to make several changes due to covid and changed hotels several times, Just sent them a email and they promptly responded with the updated information.
Being a chauffeur service in England for over 25 years myself,
I cannot fault Yellowfish in anyway, I would highly recommend them to anyone, and will continue to use them whenever I got to Portugal without any doubt.

We are a family of five and recently used Yellowfish as a private transfer for Faro airport to Tavira. We were delayed on our arrival flight but received an email to say not to worry as our flight was being monitored by Yellowfish. The driver was indeed waiting when we finally arrived. The journey took approx 30 minutes in an air conditioned minibus. On the return leg we had a 4.20am collection from our location in Tavira. Again the driver was on time and collected us in a modern, air conditioned minibus. We would highly recommend Yellowfish and would definitely use them again.

We used Yellowfish 4 times during our 2 week trip and every transfer was efficient and stress free ...the drivers were courteous and if you felt like conversing you could and if not you didn’t feel uncomfortable not doing so .
Vehicles were clean and Covid precautions in place . Our daughter had a solo airport transfer and felt safe and comfortable.
All in all would most definitely recommend Yellowfish 😀

Hi
When booking do you enter your actual plane landing time or estimated time that transfer will be needed ie time when through baggage reclaim etc.
Written 27 April 2019
I think you put the flight number and the time of flight arrival they track the flight number and they then see if the flight is delayed or lands early. They will always be monitoring the flight and will be there waiting for you never have any problems will be using them again this year.

Hello, How much would a transfer from Faro airport to Lagos for 1 person be? Thank you
Written 19 April 2019
Best thing you can do is go on their website and get an online quote - its quick and easy and doesn't tie you in to actually making a booking.
Its going to be in the region of 65 Euros i would imagine, but that just a guess based on the last price i was given for a transfer from Faro to Carvoeiro which was 51 Euros.
