Algarve Day Tour

Explore the Algarve’s Moorish heritage on the Algarve Day Tour.

The Algarve Day Tour is a brief immersion into Portugal’s warm and leisurely Southern region.

While July and August see a significant influx of visitors, the Algarve offers a less crowded experience during the rest of the year.

The maritime coast, with its sedimentary rocks boasting warm hues and limited resistance to maritime abrasion, forms a distinctive, degraded coastline that produces highly appealing images.

These rocks, shaped by maritime erosion, contribute to the formation of caves, including the famous Benagil Cave.

Participants can enjoy multiple visits and a quick beach dip in a single day thanks to a door-to-door service that collects and returns them to their hotels.

The predetermined itinerary covers Lisbon, Sagres, Lagos, Portimão, and a return to Lisbon. Other visits can be considered upon your request.

The standard tour excludes a boat trip to visit the caves, but arrangements can be made if desired.
