Hi, my elderly Mother-in-law and Father-in-law moved to from São Bartolomeu de Messines to Algoz about 3 years ago, they are now increasingly unable to drive and are very easily confused (but fiercely independent). I am trying to help them find transport to get to places such as supermarkets and towns (such as Albufeira) To compound things further, they have limited funds and live in a rather remote location. Can anyone help with the times of buses and where they stop? (I am also trying to find them a plumber, but that's another story!) thanks in advance

That sounds a bit tricky, it is always a problem when people get too old to drive and aren’t in an accessible location. I don't have any times but I have found algarvebus.info has lots of information on buses. I think you would be very lucky to find someone on here who has the bus times specifically for Algoz to hand but who knows.

Sounds like you might have to do a bit of Googling, I have found bus times are available online, good luck!

Thank you so much! I have managed to locate the nearest bus stop to them using google street view, now to work out which buses stop there, and what time....

Thanks again!

Well I hope the bus stop has buses. We have a lovely bus shelter in our village but no buses come through it any more!

Oh gosh! I will keep my fingers crossed! (attached photo shows it is not as grand as your lovely shelter!)

Easiest is if you put Algoz into the algarve bus info website it tells you not just what buses go to Algoz but also the times and where they stop.
