2 hour walk in the sun with minimal information. Very few points of interest. Small amount of food at the end. Fee required for

Great walking tour of Albufeira Old Town
Joanna was very knowledgeable about the history and landmarks of Albufeira Old Town and took us to places that we would have missed, otherwise. At the end of the tour, she presented us with delicious tapas and wine and we even had a chance to taste Algarve firewater. Great tour!

Joana was very...
Joana was very professional and very friendly. She rearranged the tour twice due to bad weather and accommodate an extra tour during the day. Very enjoyable experience with great tapas and wine in a lovely little restaurant.

Super, informative walking tour of old town Albufeira.
This short walking tour took us around areas of Albufeira we’d have never known of. The Fisherman’s Beach, old castle walls and churches. The tapas at the end was a little limited. Our guide Joana was informative though at times distracted by her phone.
