Overview

Today we offer you the opportunity of discovering one of the less known areas of the eastern Algarve! We propose an unforgettable visit to a salt pan where you will be able to see how the finest salt in Portugal is produced. Beyond this, you can appreciate the natural beauty of the Ria Formosa estuary. Our next stop is OlhĂŁo. Here you have an opportunity to explore the famous market with its huge selection of fish. After visiting the market in OlhĂŁo it is time to recharge your batteries enjoying a typical lunch in a Restaurant, where you will be delighted with the freshness of the fish served! After lunch, we will pass by a tiny, traditional fishing village - Santa Luzia. There you will see the pots used to catch octopus - an ingenious device! Our final stop is Tavira - the queen of the Algarve coastal towns. See the Arab fortress, the Roman Bridge dating from the IV century and visit at least some of the towns 22 churches! An unforgettable day is guaranteed!

Thoroughly enjoyable day out.

Published on Oct, 2024

We wanted to see parts of the Algarve that we hadn’t visited before and are so glad we did, our guide Vasco was a mine of information. We visited a sea salt producer who uses eco friendly methods to produce salt, much more interesting than it sounds! We saw the Ria Formosa natural park then on to a couple of picturesque villages east of Faro. The included fresh fish meal was the best we have tasted. A really great day out with an excellent guide.

Thoroughly enjoyable day out.

A wonderful east secret trip

Published on Aug, 2024

Definitely recommend this very nice trip to east Algarve. The guide Vasko was a wonderful narrator, gave us a lot of very interesting information, answered all of our questions. Very helpful and with great attitude. There is a lot to be seen in the east and Vasko did everything to show us most of its secrets. Lunch was delicious too.
