Day Trip to Faro, Olhão, & Tavira
Tour Details
At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Albufeira to begin this day trip to Faro, Olhão, and Tavira. Are you ready for an unforgettable trip? Let's go!
First, we'll explore the walled center of Faro, the capital of the Algarve, which has cobblestone streets leading to different squares. The largest square is Largo da Sé, where the Faro Cathedral is located. This impressive cathedral stands out for its stone facade and its medieval tower, which provide beautiful views of the city.
In this area, you'll have some free time to purchase a souvenir. Afterward, we'll continue our journey to Olhão, to the east of the Algarve. We'll explore this charming fishing town on foot and visit the local market to see the typical products of the region.
Next, we'll set off to Tavira, one of the prettiest and most photographed towns in the Algarve. The Roman bridge that crosses the Gilão River and its historic center are the main attractions of this town.
Here, you'll have an hour of free time to grab a bite to eat and try a dish of Portuguese cuisine. After lunch and feeling energized, we'll regroup and stop for a picture at the lovely Vila Nova de Cacela Beach before beginning our journey back to Albufeira.
Finally, we'll say our goodbye at the starting point after this 8-hour day trip.
