The tour begins with a convenient pickup from the Albufeira area, setting off on a journey through some of the Algarve’s most captivating landscapes and historical sites. The first stop is the old Moorish capital of Silves, where you can explore its impressive castle and the well-preserved cathedral while learning about the city’s rich history. From Silves, the journey continues toward the Monchique mountains, traveling along scenic roads inaccessible to larger buses, which allows for spectacular views of the Algarve’s coastline and the lush Monchique countryside.
Next, the tour takes you to the historic city of Lagos, the starting point of Portugal’s Age of Discovery under Prince Henry the Navigator. Here, you can choose to enjoy a leisurely lunch, visit local museums, or simply wander through the charming old town, admiring its historical sites and vibrant atmosphere. In the afternoon, the journey continues to Cape Saint Vincent, famously known as the “End of the World” before the discovery of the New World.
