Retken kuvaus

The Algarve is famed for its beautiful beaches, yet its countryside is also filled with little gems. On this exclusive tour, you'll head into the Monchique Mountains to visit the history-steeped towns of Silves and Monchique as well as Mt Foia. Plus, you'll taste some local treats along the way.

First up is Silves, in the heart of the orange-growing country at the foot of the highlands. You'll climb up its castle to admire the views, learn about its Moorish past and enjoy a cake and orange juice in its café. We'll then continue the excursion deep into the Monchique Mountains, where we'll stop in a restaurant for lunch.

Next is Mt Foia, the Algarve's highest point. Here, you can enjoy panoramic views over the countryside. You'll also drop into a shop for a liqueur tasting. Then, it's on to Monchique to explore its cobbled streets and traditional shops. Rounding off the day is Caldas de Monchique for a guided walk through a garden rich in the area's endemic trees as well as a mineral water tasting.

Vestre Algarve med Lagos, Sagres og Cabo de São Vicent

Den forrevne kysten i den vestlige delen av Algarve er full av dramatiske klipper som skjuler sandviker og karakteristiske byer. På denne turen får du god tid til å utforske den historiske byen Lagos og se noen av Algarves mest pittoreske steder, blant annet Sagres, "verdens ende", og fiskerlandsbyen Baleeira. Beatriz, en av våre dyktige lokalguider, sier: "Lagos har en lang historie, og var en gang et viktig knutepunkt for skipstrafikken på 1400-tallet under den portugisiske oppdagelsestiden. Du får en følelse av byens historie når du vandrer gjennom gamlebyen på mønstrede brosteinsgater flankert av flotte bygninger."Byen Lagos ligger beskyttet ved en elvemunning, og har en flott beliggenhet ved stranden og innen rekkevidde av all den fantastiske naturen. Her får du en kulturell dose med en omvisning i Lagos by og tid til å nyte de livlige gatene og kafeene. På den guidede turen får du se statuen av Henrik Sjøfareren på Praça do Infante og bygningen som fungerte som Portugals første slavemarked. Etterpå kan du velge om du vil spise lunsj, shoppe eller gå på oppdagelsesferd.Deretter besøker vi Cabo de São Vicente, også kjent som "verdens ende" – Europas sørvestligste punkt. Dette stedet er kjent for sine bratte klipper, panoramautsikt og den ikoniske fyrtårnet som ligger på tuppen. Å nyte utsikten over fiskehavnen i Baleeira er den perfekte måten å avslutte denne turen på.

Guided evening 4x4 tour of Monchique Hills with dinner
Utflukter og dagsturer

Guided evening 4x4 tour of Monchique Hills with dinner

This trip has to be one of the best ways to discover the real Algarve. Jump into a 4x4, leave the coast behind and make your way up into the Monchique hills. You'll discover the real heart of the region, one that most visitors never get to see. Ines, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘These hills feel almost untouched by time, with little farming villages where life moves at a slower pace, offering a glimpse of traditional Portuguese life.'Travelling in small groups winding along earth tracks and past tiny villages, you'll get a sneak peek of a peaceful lifestyle that's quickly disappearing. One of the highlights is the whitewashed village of Alferce, home to a pretty church dating back to the 16th century. Any cultivatable patches of land in the area are filled with citrus orchards and eucalyptus groves. Next, you'll continue on your journey to explore the natural wilderness of Barrancos dos Pisoes.There'll be plenty of stops along the way to capture those perfect holiday pictures and then we'll travel up to the highest point in the Algarve. At this special viewpoint, you'll watch the sky change colour as the sun sets and toast the view with a glass of sparkling wine. Hop back into the 4x4 and as darkness blankets the landscape, you'll head to a local restaurant for a traditional dinner including specialities from the Monchique hills.

Full-day Seville tour from the Algarve with a local guide
Utflukter og dagsturer

Full-day Seville tour from the Algarve with a local guide

Bursting with glorious buildings, dotted with leafy parks and drenched in Andalucian colour, Seville is a must-visit. Some of Spain's most important monuments are in the spotlight on this guided tour, including the bullring, Santa Cruz and Plaza de España. You'll also have some free time to explore. Mariasol, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘I always feel uplifted when I visit the Plaza de España because it's so colourful. It is full of painted ceramic tilework, known as azulejos. Each azulejo depicts Spain's regional culture and heritage and every province is represented.'You'll strike out early for the Andalusian capital, allowing plenty of time to explore some of its cultural and architectural highlights. Once in Seville, your walking tour begins at the Moorish Torre Del Oro. You'll see Seville's bullring, the Real Maestranza, the Triana Bridge, and the Plaza d'America. Next, you'll visit the colonnaded Plaza de España – and the surrounding Maria Luiza Park. After a rest in the park, we'll continue our walking tour, which takes us to Barrio de Santa Cruz – once known as the district of Moors and Jews. This most characterful district of Seville, right in the historic centre, is overflowing with orange trees, pretty plazas and jasmine-scented patios. And before heading back, you'll have some free time to explore on your own to grab some tapas – and maybe a souvenir or two.
