A Perfect Tour of Algarve
Day 1
Faro
Start your trip in Faro, exploring the Cidade Velha (old town), with its fine buildings, S (Cathedral) and the Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Carmo and its macabre Capela dos Ossos (Chapel of Bones). Spend the afternoon on Faros sparkling town beach, the Praia de Faro, with mile upon mile of white sands.
Day 2
Parque Natural da Ria Formosa
Enjoy a delicious seafood lunch in Olho, Algarves most workaday, but still handsome, town before heading out to the coastal countryside to explore Parque Natural da Ria Formosa, a beautiful area of lagoons, dunes, beaches and pine forests. You can arrange boat trips through the park from Olho.
Day 3
Tavira
Travel farther along the coast to explore Algarves loveliest town, Tavira, which straddles the Rio Gilo. Sights include the Renaissance Igreja da Misericrdia, and you can explore the nearby Salt Pans and take a ferry across to the breathtaking Ilha de Tavira, a long white-sand spit that stretches as far as the eye can see.
Day 4
Algarve interior
Next, head inland to explore the slow-paced, unspoilt interior of the region, which feels like a different world. Visit Silves, a town with slanting red roofs that resembles a Cezanne painting. It is set high above the Rio Arade and topped by a handsome sandstone castle.
