On time, nice, clean and comfortable Rede Expressos bus. Once we found out where to get the bus exactly, it was easy to find. For the first time, keep some extra time for getting the information and locating your bus.

The bus was on time and arrived 5-10 min after scheduled arrival time. The ticket clerk and bus drive were rude when requesting a change in seats as we were assigned different seats as a couple. Bus driver did not speak much English or maybe did not want to communicate in other languages besides Portuguese

RENEX Lisbon Albufeira recent customer reviews

Overall very good. I was a bit disappointed I had to pay extra 10 euros to change time. My bus was 3 hours late so I missed the 1:30pm bus to Albuferia . I had thought it was free to just change tickets. Maybe I had got this wrong.
