Faro Tours



Faro Tours can be centered exclusively on its cultural, historical or natural beauty. Tours of Faro are often an eyeopener to the diversity present in even small sections of Portugal. Tours in Faro cover the peculiar Chapel of Bones, where the altar is lined with human skulls and bones. Even taking an unguided walking tour of Faro can scarcely fail to awe. Faro being more a thriving business center rather than a resort, the emphasis is more on the cultural and historical importance of the city. But the restaurants and the shopping provided by Faro make it attractive on that count too. Faro tours expose many religious and architectural monuments which lure the tourists to this southern city and its surrounding areas. Among them are:
  • Carmo Church, Faro
  • Faro Archaeological Museum
  • Rua Dr. Francisco Gomes one of the most important streets of Faro.
  • The remnants of the Moorish castelo of Largo.
  • The market town of Loulé is the heart of the Algarve's unique chimney district.
  • The fresh air, serenity, and hush of the town of São Brás de Alportel.
  • The cubist buildings of Olhão, encountered only at its core.
  • The Venice of the Algarve region is the coastal gem Tavira lying on the banks of the Ségua and Gilão Rivers.
