Algarve Moments
I spent a very pleasant time, we discovered the memories and beaches of Albufeira.
A
Amazing! would recommend!
Amazing experience! we had our sight seeing tour in a tuk-tuk and it was amazing- A great way to see the amazing sights. Before the day of the tour the tour operator responded very quickly to our queries about the tour. Andre who did out tour was amazing! He was passionate and so knowledgeable about the history of the region and even told us the names of the architect that designed the colorful buildings! The tour took us all across the Albufeira coast stopping at the main beaches as well as some of the quieter less known beautiful spots! As we were only in Albufiera for the day this was a great way to get a feel for the area and also a great way to see which of the sites we wanted to explore further. After the tour we made out way to Arrifes beach (which Andre had shown us) for some relaxation at a very beautiful and quiet spot. Definitely great value for money.

Great tour
Highly recommended tour! Thanks to our guide Alison, we were able to get to know the different facets of Albufeira. He was very competent in explaining the history of the city and modern life to us and also showed us some beautiful places that we would not have been able to reach so easily on our own. We also thought it was great that we were picked up from the hotel in Olhos de Agua and brought back there. Muito obrigada Algarve Moments!
