Itinerary
We will depart from Lisbon towards Ponta da Piedade in Lagos, a beautiful corner of the Algarve famous for its impressive golden cliffs rising above the deep blue sea. Shaped by the forces of wind and water, these natural formations have created stunning arches, grottos, and caves.
The next stop will be the city of Lagos, known as one of the main departure points for exploration voyages during the Portuguese Age of Discoveries. Accompanied by a local guide, stroll through its historic cobbled streets, visit the Church of St. Anthony and the old slave market, and learn more about its maritime legacy. Afterward, enjoy free time to explore at your own pace.
In the afternoon, we will head to Albufeira, a former fishing village that has become one of the most popular destinations in the Algarve. Its old town is a maze of whitewashed streets, lined with charming small shops, bars, and restaurants. After a guided tour to explore its main attractions, there will be an opportunity to taste the local cuisine (own expenses). We will return to Lisbon after a day full of dreamy landscapes.

Beauty of Algarve beaches is out of this world and must be seen. Enrique was an excellent tour guide, takes his time to explain the history and enjoys what he's doing ... excellent guide!
This tour was a wonderful way to end my vacation. Pedro was a great tour guide. He provided lots of fun facts, which made the walking tour part of it, really interesting. I think it was impressive that throughout the trip, Pedro communicated in English, Spanish and Portuguese, to accommodate everyone on the tour. He took us to beautiful bluffs and look out points, where the panoramic views were just stunning! The towns of Lagos and Albufeira were great to walk around and take in the seaside villages and culture. I just loved this tour! And despite the long ride, it was totally worth it to get a taste of the Algarve, which I will definitely love to see again in the future.
