Full-Day Tour The Best of the West in Algarve - Private Tour

Despre activitate

The day begins with a visit to the former Moorish capital of the Algarve, the city of Silves, with its picturesque Castle on top of the hill overlooking the river and the Roman Bridge. On the way to the highest point in the Algarve, Foia (with 902m altitude), we will stop to visit the small village of Caldas de Monchique with its famous spa, whose waters have been recognized since Roman times for their healing properties. In Foia, we will taste the typical liqueurs of the region followed by lunch in a typical restaurant in the Serra de Monchique where you can enjoy a traditional Algarve meal. The afternoon begins with a visit to Lagos, a city that has always been linked to the sea, where the Portuguese Discoveries started in the 15th century. Ponta da Piedade, known for its impressive rock formations. We end the day in Sagres where we will have the opportunity to see the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean, from Cabo de São Vicente, also known in the past as the "End of the World".

    Ponta da Piedade is a headland with a group of rock formations along the coastline of the town of Lagos, in the Portuguese region of the Algarve. Consisting of yellow-golden cliff-like rocks up to 20 meters high, they are one of the most famous touristic attractions of Portugal. Several grottos in Ponta da Piedade can be visited by boat. The location also contains a lighthouse, dating back to 1913.

  6. Cape Saint Vincent

    40 min

    Cape St. Vincent is a headland in the municipality of Vila do Bispo, in the Algarve, southern Portugal. It is the southwestern most point of Portugal and of mainland Europe.

    Cape St. Vincent was already sacred ground in Neolithic times, as standing menhirs in the neighborhood attest. The ancient Greeks called it Ophiussa (Land of Serpents), inhabited by the Oestriminis and dedicated here a temple to Heracles. The Romans called it Promontorium Sacrum (or Holy Promontory). Strabo, in his Geography calls this cape the most western tip of the known world and reports the place was considered magical. Common people believed the sun sank here hissing into the ocean, marking the edge of their world, which Strabo qualifies as "common and vulgar reports" and attributes to Posidonius

  7. Lagos

    1 h 15 min

    Lagos is a city and municipality at the mouth of Bensafrim River and along the Atlantic Ocean.

    The city of Lagos has a population of approximately 22,000. Typically, these numbers increase during the summer months, with the influx of visiting tourists and seasonal residents. While the majority of the population lives along the coast and works in tourism and services, the inland region is sparsely inhabited, with the majority of the people working in agriculture and forestry.

    Lagos is one of the most visited cities in the Algarve and Portugal, due to its variety of tourist-friendly beaches, rock formations (Ponta da Piedade), bars, restaurants and hotels, renowned for its vibrant summer nightlife and parties. Yet, Lagos is also a historic centre of the Portuguese Age of Discovery, frequent home of Henry the Navigator, historical shipyard and, at one time, centre of the European slave trade. In 2012, travel website TripAdvisor, classified Lagos as the number one travel destination.
