Amazing tour around Albufeira ! - It's a MUST if you're planning to go to Albufeira.
A tour in which you will learn about the history of the city, at the same time that you will discover hidden and beautiful places in the city. It ends in a very nice restaurant, with wine and tapas. Thank you so much, I enjoyed it a lot!!

Engaging, enriching - Very interesting and engaging experience and highly recommended to see another and more personal side to the area of Albufeira. In a short few steps from the busy areas, you can step into the historical village of narrow streets and quietness & natural beauty of the coast. The remains of the historical castle grounds are embedded into the structures of other buildings and of the coastal rock formations.
We tasted local meat, cheeses, wine 👌 and guided through the whole experience by Joana.
Thanks Joana for skilfully sharing your local knowledge and the opportunity to see Albufeira for its true beauty in its rich coastal history.
