Best of the Algarve
Best of the Algarve encompasses a contrasting variety of landscapes. From the rich greens of the interior hills to the sun baked ochres and browns of the sea cliffs. From the traditional Portuguese Hamlets to the cosmopolitan coastal towns, there is a real sense of capturing every side of the Algarve.
You start your trip in Silves where you will stroll through streets lined with citrus trees and crumbling historical beauty. Let the scents of pine and eucalyptus invigorate you on your climb up to the thermal spa town of Monchique before heading down to the coast. Here seafood is king and you can spend your days high over the turquoise sea before tucking into fresh prawns and a glass of vinho verde at night. After walking through the wildlife rich Budens wetlands, the trip finishes at the most Westerly point in Europe, Cabo sao Vincente which adds a dramatic and historical full stop to this wonderful trip.
Your holiday includes seven nights accommodation, breakfast, luggage transfer, emergency support, detailed route notes and maps are all included so you can just relax and enjoy the walking, food and wine of the Algarve.
Highlights:
- The history and charm of Silves.
- Wonderful beach side restaurants offering seafood straight from the boat.
- Wildlife spotting in the Budens Wetlands and Cabo sao Vincente National Park.
- The relaxed and friendly charm of the Portuguese people.
