Overview

Discover the best of the Algarve coast in one day from Faro, in a small group of up to 8 travellers. More than 12,000 travellers have spent this day with us since 2019.

Walk the golden cliffs of Praia da Marinha to the famous heart-shaped rock and look straight down into Benagil Cave from the cliffs above. Then enjoy 2 hours of free time in the charming village of Carvoeiro for lunch, a walk by the sea or the beach. We finish at Algar Seco, among rock formations and natural pools, with an optional cliff jump in the warmer months.

Our guides have lived in the Algarve for many years. They drive, tell the stories of this coast and take photos of you all day.

⚠️ This is a land tour, not a boat tour. We see Benagil Cave from the cliffs above.

With only 8 spots per tour, it's worth booking ahead. Free cancellation up to 24 hours before. We can't wait to show you our coast!
