Beskrivelse

The Algarve is famed for its beautiful beaches, yet its countryside is also filled with little gems. On this exclusive tour, you'll head into the Monchique Mountains to visit the history-steeped towns of Silves and Monchique as well as Mt Foia. Plus, you'll taste some local treats along the way.

First up is Silves, in the heart of the orange-growing country at the foot of the highlands. You'll climb up its castle to admire the views, learn about its Moorish past and enjoy a cake and orange juice in its café. We'll then continue the excursion deep into the Monchique Mountains, where we'll stop in a restaurant for lunch.

Next is Mt Foia, the Algarve's highest point. Here, you can enjoy panoramic views over the countryside. You'll also drop into a shop for a liqueur tasting. Then, it's on to Monchique to explore its cobbled streets and traditional shops. Rounding off the day is Caldas de Monchique for a guided walk through a garden rich in the area's endemic trees as well as a mineral water tasting.

    Es wäre schön gewesen, wenn wir an manchen Orten etwas mehr Zeit gehabt hätten. Es hätte auch mal einen Fotostopp geben können.Zum Beispiel bei der Storchen -Wiese .

    Le guide était très intéressant et sympathique mais le fait que l'excursion soit pour les français et les anglais en même temps engendre une perte de temps considérable puisque le guide doit tout expliquer dans les deux langues. De ce fait, beaucoup d'attente dans le château pour entendre la version française puisqu'elle alterne avec l'anglaise, donc manque de temps pour se promener dans le château et faire les boutiques ensuite. L'excursion de Silves se fait donc au pas de course, dommage.

    Very informative, lovely lunch, tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. Felt very comfortable as a solo traveller. It was very cloudy so no view from the final stop on top of the mountain which was disappointing but out of everyone's control. The rest of the stops and views were beautiful with clear skies.

    Ce que nous avons aimé ce sont les commentaires du guide José. Ce que nous avons moins apprécié c'est de ne pas avoir du temps libre à Monchique village
