Rejseplan
Alvor er en traditionel fiskerlandsby, hvor vi lærer om skikke og traditioner hos disse mennesker, der har levet af havet og for havet i århundreder, med dets naturlige skønhed og charme. Vi besøger også Alvor Livreddermuseum med dets hemmeligheder, som vores guide vil dele med os.
Efter at have rejst langs Portimonenses kyst med udsigt over de smukke, rene sandstrande, ankommer vi til fæstningen, der blev bygget i 1621 for at beskytte vores sømandsforfædre mod pirater, der forsøgte at plyndre os. Denne fæstning har sin charme og sine hemmeligheder, som vores guide vil afsløre for jer.
Ferragudo er en smuk fiskerlandsby med over 500 års historie, beliggende ved floden Arades udmunding. Det er tid til at besøge de lavereliggende områder samt kirken, der stammer fra landsbyens egen tid og har udsigt over hele floden Arade, samt slottet São João do Arade, der har været privat i 200 år.
Efter udsigten over kysten er det tid til at tage ind i Silves' landlige indre, den ældste by i hele Algarve, hvor vi vil se Arade-saltpanderne samt Harvard-vingården med dens fønikiske produktionsteknikker. Vi vil også kunne se de enorme appelsinlunde, fødestedet for vores søde Algarve-appelsin. Når vi ankommer til Silves Slot, kan vi betragte denne storslåede gamle bygning samt dens arkitektur.
Da ikke alt er historie og kultur, vil vi rejse gennem terrænet i vores køretøjer for at opdage medronho og den eftertragtede portugisiske kork samt al dens produktion og omgivelser. Når denne rejse er overstået, er det tid til at vende tilbage til jeres værelser.

Amazing guide. Very friendly and accomodating to our requests. He showed us so many things, more even than included on the tour
So many thanks
Excellent guide Antonio. Antonio made a lot of effort to speak our language (French) during the whole trip. Interesting explanation. Antonio answered all our questions. The tour included stops both at the sea and in the countryside. However, we enjoyed the 6 km 4x4 (off-road) part less. It was not indicated that we would do that in the tour on Trip Advisor. We were supposed to go at 80 km/h - 90 km/h but he slowed down because there was someone in our group who didn't like it. Our guide was attentive to our needs.
Merci pour tout
Our guide Antonio was very knowledgeable and friendly. He shared history with us as we visited various places on this tour. The trip finished off with an exciting off road experience!! Highly recommend. Many thanks Karen and Darren
So many thanks.
We had a great time. Our guide was fantastic. Highly recommend this excursion and he made sure we were back with plenty of time!
So may thanks for everything
We had a half day tour today with a pick up from our accommodation on the outskirts of Alvor. I didn’t catch the name of our guide, I think maybe Bruno, or Nuno? It was supposed to be Antonio but he was suddenly taken ill in the morning and we were contacted to try and rearrange but we already had other things booked so could only do today. It was the booking manager who came out and did the tour for us which we were very grateful for as we wouldn’t have wanted to miss this! It was so brilliant. From the moment we were picked up, until the moment we were dropped back off again, we had nothing but fun, laughs, and exceptional knowledge of all the places we visited. Our guide knew the area so well, he offered initial info, but was able to answer all our questions. He not only engaged our 16 yr old son, but also worked hard to involve our adult daughter who is autistic. We often find tour guides ignore her but he kept checking in with her to make sure she was ok. The skill of our driver also should be mentioned! The way he confidently navigated tiny roads, elbow bends, other drivers that were on the wrong side of the road! I’m so glad he was driving and not me! I honestly cannot recommend this tour enough. We learnt so much, had lots of fun, saw beaches, castles, mountains, rivers, and the storks and their nests are beyond description. And the Pastel de Nata? Utterly perfect! We have 1 regret…we wish we had booked this for one of our first days in the Algarve. We also wish Antonio a speedy recovery. From the conversations we had today with our driver, and having read other reviews on here, he is clearly a good friend and asset to this company.
Hello really glad you had enjoyed our tour. Me as the company manager iam very happy because it was me your guide. So so many thanks.
Lots of fun with a great guide.
So many thanks.
The pick up from our complex was so easy and the two tour guides were so friendly and accomodating. I struggle with high steps and so one of the vehicles was slightly lower and they also brought with them a step stool to make access easier. The two guides that we had were so knowledgeable and took us to a variety of places including a liveky coffee shop which sold the gorgeous Pastal de Nata and also some hand made almond shapes, like marzipan fruits but much better. They took us up into the mountains and shared so much local knowledge. I would absolutely recommend booking a tour with this firm.
Really glad you had enjoyed. So many thanks.
A beautiful experience ideal for getting to know the area well; Antonio is a great guide and driver, he makes you live the experience to the fullest and you learn about the culture of the area, this adventure deserves a ten.
Muchas gracias.
The 4-hr tour is organized by a group of enthusiasts who aim to present the local history and daily lives of the area's inhabitants – primarily fishing families. At the start, the guides point out symbols of the story – local monuments, a now-closed fish market, and an old fishing boat, even explaining how it was steered. Participants are then driven in well-maintained vintage Land Rover vans (air-conditioned with the windows open) through the narrow streets of Alvor, allowing them to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of bygone times. Drivers share stories about customs and the details of fishermen's lives. One stop along the route is the Fortaleza de Santa Catarina, where the interesting optical distortion effect of photographing through the barrel of a cannon standing there is demonstrated. The tour then continues through the alleys of Ferragudo (with a break at a friendly café) and past the Fort de São João do Arade castle. From Ferragudo, the route leads along very local roads through the salt pans region to Sitio da Abicada (Estômbar) on the right bank of the Rio Arade, where you can learn about local grape varieties (wine tasting is not included in the program). Next, we visit a local swimming pool on the Rio Arade, fed by natural springs, and the forecourt of Silves Castle (without visiting the paid part of the castle), where you can see the exhibition in the tower. From the castle, the tour moves to the foothills of the Sierra de Silves. There, passengers can take an off-road ride along steep local mountain roads. In summary, the tour is worth the price. However, this tour should be undertaken only by those curious about local life and history. This is the kind of history that rarely makes it into textbooks. The drivers who take care of the participants come across as passionate local patriots who genuinely want to share stories about the land they inhabit. We want to thank Mr. Antonio and Mr. Nuno (our driver) for a job well done.
We are really happy that you had enjoyed this tour, as you can realize there is so mutch more to show on the sorrounding areas, such as more offroad areas . So many thanks
My wife and I had a really good time. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and really went the extra mile.
