Rede-Expressos passengers can, they say, use local VAMUS buses free of charge (provided you have a Rede Expressos ticket of course!) to travel to or from the
Albufeira bus station stop. I have never met anyone who has actually done this.

Some vehicles may be in the red and white colours of RENEX or green of MTS.
