LISBON / LAGOS / CAPE ST. VINCENT / ALBUFEIRA

Welcome to your tour with Europamundo!We’ll depart early for southern Portugal, enjoying beautiful landscapes as we cross the long bridge over the Tagus River. Upon arrival in the Algarve, the southern region of Portugal, we´ll explore the historic city of Lagos, known for its port from where Portuguese ships once sailed to Brazil, and its charming historic center enclosed within ancient walls. There will be time for lunch. In the afternoon, we´ll travel to the westernmost point of continental Europe amidst windswept cliffs to discover Cape St. Vincent. Nearby, we´ll have the opportunity to photograph the historic Sagres fortress. Later, we´ll spend time in Albufeira, a stunning coastal city where you can relax on its beaches or wander through its lively historic center. Accommodation will be provided in Albufeira or a neighboring city in the Algarve.

ALBUFEIRA / MéRTOLA / ÉVORA / LISBON

We’ll travel to Faro, the peaceful capital of the Algarve, for a leisurely stroll. From there, we’ll continue our journey into the Alentejo region. On the banks of the Guadiana River, we’ll visit Mértola, a walled town-museum that was an important center during the Muslim era. This town, with its impressive castle, invites us to wander through the streets lined with whitewashed houses and historical corners. Next, we’ll stop in Évora, a UNESCO World Heritage city, where you’ll have time to explore its medieval palaces, Gothic religious buildings, and ancient Roman temple. We´ll visit the Chapel of Bones, built with over 5,000 skeletons (admission included). We’ll then continue to Lisbon, arriving at the end of the day.
