Algarve - Lagos

Faro is 80kms from Lagos.

The Algarve is a region 180km wide by 40km deep. You will not be able to explore everything in 2 days.

I suggest that if Lagos interests you, you should here here. You can change from the Lisbon to Faro train at Tunes junction and take a local train to Lagos.

There are twice daily buses from Lagos to Seville.

See Cubsur's page on this here:

As regards good restaurants, the town is full of them. Depends where you staying. Canthinho Algarvio on Rua Alfonso Almeida just up from the yellow Camara Building is a good place to start.
