Algarve Holidays

The package holiday has changed a bit over recent years with a growing number of independent travellers wanting to book parts of their holiday separately. But the package holiday is still going strong and has a new partner to complete the holiday market - the 'tailor-made' package holiday offering flexibility and choice so everyone can have the perfect package holiday! This of course is good news for the Algarve and its fans, because the perfect Algarve holiday is just a few clicks away! You can either keep it simple and choose a pre-packaged flight and accommodation holiday, which often includes transfers from Faro Airport, or you choose from a number of different flights, pick from a variety of accommodation and add in or leave out extras to create your indivdual DIY Algarve holiday! There is a huge amount of choice today for Algarve holidays, most being sold online (which is certainly where the best prices are). To help in your search, here you can find some of, what we consider to be, the best providers of Algarve holidays (throughout the year). The travel sites will open in new windows so you can keep our site open to continue your searches or to find further information about the Algarve.

Tips for booking your Algarve Holiday:

• If you are planning on visiting the Algarve in any of the school holidays try and book as far in advance as possible because the prices will jump up as you get nearer the time.
• To get the very best deals (particularly for family holidays in the school summer holidays book in the January sales. This is when the travel companies try and sell as many holidays as they can for the year and they set some incredible discounts, low deposits, payment schemes and special offers such as 'Free Child Places'.
• Look out for companies offering a 'Best Price Guarantee' or 'Lowest Price Guarantee' - you will notice that a lot of travel companies are offering it now, which is great because you know you will be getting the best deal!
• Make sure the company you book with is ATOL and ABTA protected. The ATOL scheme protects you from losing money or being stranded abroad if a tour operator goes out of business. ABTA is a Code of Conduct which aims to ensure that the public receive the best possible service (from ABTA Members) and many of the travel arrangements provided by ABTA Members are protected in case of the financial failure of the travel company
• If you're booking a family holiday to the Algarve or travelling as a larger group, it can sometimes be cheaper to book an Algarve villa holiday and you get the benefit of flexible meal times, privacy and more space.
