Highlights
  • Loule - With the valuable contribution of archaeology, it is known today that the presence of man in the municipality of Loulé dates back to the Ancient Paleolithic. In the following millennia, in the period of the Age of Metals, the incursion of the peoples of the Eastern Mediterranean intensified, which progressively penetrated the Southwest Peninsula, culminating with the arrival of the Phoenicians and Carthaginians. These founded the first factories on the seafront of the territory of the current municipality, promoting fishing, metallurgy prospecting and commercial activity.

Additional Information

We kickstart our excursion in Loulé, where you’ll have a chance to explore the local marketplace, offering a vast range of regional goods, as well as the historical downtown. We also visit Vila de Querença, giving you a glimpse of the impact of Arab architecture, and including a visit to the Nossa Sra. Igreja da Assunção, situated at the pinnacle of the village.
Unlike some other seaside settlements in Algarve, Barraco do Velho is a quaint rural hamlet ensconced in the Serra do Caldeirão, not far from the Alentejo region’s boundary. Here, you’ll get a deeper look into cork production tradition and have a chance to try the iconic medronho brandy liqueur.
We then move toward our final stopover of Alte, a charming little town known for the renowned Fontes and the breathtaking Vigário waterfall.
