Overview

This tour is led by an experienced, dedicated, and passionate tour guide who knows these towns like the back of his hand.
 In the heart of the stunning Algarve region, this trip is a remarkable exploration of three distinct towns that combine history, culture, and natural beauty in a truly unique way.
 This tour takes you beyond the typical tourist spots to reveal the true soul of the Algarve. The tour guide is committed to providing authentic and immersive experiences that allow you to connect with local communities like the copper master and weavers of Loulé and the vendors of Olhão.

 We will visit Loulé Municipal Market, one of the best examples of the Arabic revivalist style
- The Old Town streets of Loulé with its traditional houses and where you will see the copper master working his traditional cataplana and other items, the local ladies weaving dworf palm trees leaves, sewing and linking each branche, producing so many different objects: bags, carry cots, baskets, and more traditional or innovative objects.

Olhao

Olhão's unique architecture creates a particular urban panorama. One of Olhão’s most iconic features is its network of cubist-style houses. These Cubist structures showcase the city's artistic spirit and unique approach to architecture. 
The first stop on our tour is the municipal market. Set along the waterfront, this building stands out among the white houses with its red-brick walls and green domes. There are two sections: one with fruits and vegetables and local dry products, and another solely dedicated to fish and seafood, like clams, mussels, and oysters.

We will walk to the town centre along the traditional streets where you will find traditional Portuguese buildings with their traditional tiles and iron balconies and also you will see the cubist houses.
