Additional Information

After we pick you up from your lodgings in Albufeira, anticipate a day spent admiring Silves’ medieval castle. Besides the castle, you will find the sculpture of King Sancho I at the entrance, an artifact from the period of the Christian Reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula under the rule of D. Sancho, a Portuguese sovereign.

Further into the castle, you can explore the Sé de Silves before gaining the chance to roam the ancient town, meandering down the narrow, old-fashioned streets. Be captivated by the host of native shops, boutiques and coffee houses that each boast years of heritage.

Our passengers can select whether to dine in Silves or on Monchique Mountain.

Our tour also includes a stop at the Termas de Monchique, journeying to the mountain peak - the highest spot in Algarve, which offers truly breathtaking vistas.

On the way back, passengers will get an opportunity for a brief halt at the chapel of bones in Alcantarilha.

Wonderful day with Luís to Silves and Monchique 🤩🙂 - Luís is a very nice guide, always smiling, very polite and friendly. We visited Silves Castle, Silves cathedral, Silves market and we had a picnic in a very peaceful and lovely place in Monchique, we visited the Parque da Mina, and we went to the top of Monchique mountains where we had a nice view of the countryside and on Portimão. We also visited the artisanal marketplace of Monchique. I really had a wonderful time with Luís who is an excellent driver. I recommend this excursion to anyone.
