Highlights
Discover the tranquil beauty of the East Algarve, where charming towns, elegant architecture, and rich history await.
Begin in Faro, the region’s capital, with a stroll through the Old Town. Wander its narrow cobbled streets and quiet squares until reaching the Arco da Vila, built during the city’s reconstruction after the 1755 earthquake.
Continue east to Olhão, known for its cubist houses and home to the Algarve’s second‑largest fishing port. Explore the lively fresh markets, filled with regional products, and enjoy views over the Ria Formosa Natural Park, a protected haven for hundreds of bird species.
End the journey in Tavira, often called the “Venice of the Algarve.” From the castle walls and gardens, admire the traditional architecture and distinctive “4 águas” rooftops. Cross the historic Roman Bridge, linking the two banks of the Gilão River and offering a truly memorable experience.
