Description

This excursion takes you first to Silves. The city was once the Moorish capital of the Algarve and even more magnificent than Lisbon. The most beautiful monument from the Moorish era is also located here. Climb the old red sandstone castle (optional), which reflects the once golden age, and marvel at one of the oldest chapels in the Algarve.

You reach Cabo de São Vicente through almost untouched nature - at one time it was believed to be the end of the world here. It is not, but it is the most south-westerly point of Europe. You will surely be impressed by the unique, wildly rugged cliffs and the brightest lighthouse on the continent. You will then drive through Sagres, the city made famous by Heinrich the Seafarer and his seafaring school founded in the 15th century.

We continue to Lagos, one of the most beautiful cities in the western Algarve. The picturesque old town invites you to take a stroll. The city used to be the starting point for many discoveries and is famous for its slave market. Today one or the other souvenir is waiting for you.
