Weather and car rentals

[tomtom]

Hi everybody,we are coming for a 10 day stay 31st Oct.
Has anyone got any idea as to what the early November weather should be like ?Also, I have been told that Atlaschoice car rentals at Faro Airport are very good value, any comments ?

We return to the UK on the 31st, so the rain will have stopped and it will be nice again!

[tomtom]

Really hope the rain does stop ,not seen any sunshine here in the UK all Summer.
Driving from Faro to Carvoeiro have they started charging tolls yet ?If so,how much are they and what's involved ?

Rain? What rain?

Tomorrow not looking as good, but hey - we've been lucky so far!

Long range weather forecast - light at times with alternating periods of dark...

Talk in the town is about getting the raincoats looked out for tomorow. Ah well, just find a pub with plenty of sport on TV.

Rain overnight, but sunny now. Temperature 21 at present and sunny, but rain forecast overnight, but it is nearly November, so we have been very lucky that summer has lasted so long.
This weather forecast not as bad as shown on home page http://www.windguru.cz/int/index.php?sc=48971

Why not support the website and use http://www.algarvedriver.com?

[snaj1]

Fully agree with Lazer. Support the site. We booked with Algarvedriver, no probs.

[tomtom]

I am very willing to support the website and use Algarvedriver,can you recommend them ?
Also, are the tolls operational yet ?

I've used them a lot and never any problems. Had a car die on me but they sorted that quickly. No tolls yet.

Thanks for the advice,I will be using Algarve driver.
We are on a bit of a budjet, can you recommend any good restraunts selling decent food at sensible prices.
We found "Tia Lada" and "Casa Algarvia" a little expensive last time.

I and family have used Algarvedriver several times. So far no probelms. They operate a 'booking points' system. After several bokings you can be eligible for a free weeks hire in the low season. Useful if frequent visitor. Even during previous years car hire shortage, managed to get a car albeit sen better days!! But then got us from A to B and beyond.

Food? We like 'A Fonte', up the steps beside Irish Times on the In Road. Used by locals and seen ou taxi driver in their several times.

Enjoy your visit. Hope weather improves, bit of a storm last night, patio chairs went for a walk across the garden!!
