Embark on a full-day tour from Albufeira to Eastern Algarve, immersively exploring regions steeped in Moorish and Roman heritage. Your journey begins with a visit to Faro, the capital of the Algarve province, renowned for its 13th-century city centre. From there, you'll venture to Olhão, a significant fishing hub and home to the Algarve's most celebrated market.
Your exploration continues in Tavira, where you can discover the local castle and characteristic churches. Here, you'll also have time to pause for lunch. A stroll across the historic Roman Bridge leads you to the Castle, offering one of the most awe-inspiring views over the city.
Next, delight in the charm of Cacela Velha village, famed for its quintessential whitewashed houses nestled within the Ria Formosa Natural Park area. Conclude your tour in Vila Real de Santo António, the easternmost town in the Algarve before reaching Spain. You'll observe architectural echoes of Lisbon here, as it was reconstructed in a similar fashion by Marquês de Pombal following the 1755 earthquake.
