I use Hoppa all the time, they are reliable!
Recently the price has risen even using the voucher code.
Usually they subcontract to Greenbus, but this time it says Escudo tours?
Has anyone else noticed this?

Inflation is rife across the "free world".

It’s fine they’ve just changed providers . I used them and it was fine though they don’t go to private addresses just somewhere nearby

Why not go direct
The Largest Portuguese Airport Transfers Company, Shuttle Transfers Faro Airport Algarve, Porto, Lisbon - GreenBus

EMR

Hoppa switched from Greenbus because of service issues.
If you have a flight to catch you need a company that is reliable and turns up on time.
Yellowfish private transfers, door to door , not a shared bus have one off the highest reputations but not the cheapest.

Hi,
Did you have a shared minibus or a private transfer?

EMR

Always go for Privatetransfer.You do not want to be the last drop off when the bus is full or the very early first and drive around picking up others for an hour.

When going to East Algarve there are rarely other drop offs and if so they take little time

The trick is to use the Hoppa (or similar) for the outbound journey when it's not time critical and a private hire when going back to the airport to catch a plane - then you don't have the anxiety.

I checked prices to pick up and drop off at my place out west, and it was +300 euros.

If I leave my car at the airport [or the private 'park + fly' parking on the 125] it's 5 per day.

So now I park my car on the street a few km from the airport where it's free, and get a local taxi; that still costs 10 euros each way.

I remember when the GNR had a purge on those using off airport roads for parking.
Keep your fingers crossed.
