Every one of my tours happens in a very relaxed but attentive way because time is precious and that is unpriced! Hi, my name is Rosa and i'll be very happy to meet you in the Algarve, the southern most province of Portugal. With long years of experience and my certification as a tour guide, I'll make sure your visit to Portugal will be unforgettable. After leaving Africa where I was born, (came as a child to Algarve)i've always felt a great need to travel. It is to me as essential as reading a book. I love history, I need to know the past to better understand the present. Those were strong enough reasons to make me embrace the path of becoming a certified guide, a career that i've been building in Algarve for 33 years! I say building because a guide is like a walking encyclopedia, and we have to be constantly updated. I love the privacy of small groups, no doubt. On my tours you'll be comfortably seated on my own van, air conditioned, fully insured, and legally allowed to be with you everywhere in the country, outside and also inside the monuments. Only official guides can do so! And besides, a van can go to many places totally inaccessable by bus. However, may you need a guide and a coach for a bigger group over 7 people and I sure will provide you other transportation from 14 seater to 55!It is only a matter of availability and budget. My tours are designed to offer private versions of any of the trips available in Portugal or can be tailored to create a unique and very personal travel experience. After all this, you only have to say and I will meet you at the place and time you decide. Looking forward welcoming you to the Algarve! Official Tour Guide, graduated in tourism. Registred at Tourism of Portugal with the licence RNAAT 430/2015. Driver's licence and passenger transport insurances required by Portuguese Law.

Overview of your Faro tour

Driving your own rented car and needing an orientation tour when visiting the capital town of the Algarve? Travelling in a group with no guide? Enjoying a train experience from town to town? This tour is for you! I am here to be your eyes and help you through a legendary place full of charismatic spots. It's my home town and I know what to show you but still, may you have other requests and I certainly will take you to what you want! We can do it in the morning or the afternoon although you have to note after May it is much hotter in the afternoon.

Your Faro tour itinerary

Meeting at a place previously agreed, it's time to start the walk . The iconic ''Arco da Vila'' is a notable doorway into the old town. Stories of the history start coming up right from there. The cathedral, the bishop's residence housing a phenomenal collection of tiles, the pedestrian street with its magnificent pavement and architecture are just some of the several treasures that Faro town has to reveal to you. Off course any visit is more cheerful with a taste of something local: that is also under plan, be sure you'll know better how our natives have always lived close to nature and know how to use fruits and nuts to make tasteful drinks and cakes. After this, you have still three options: take a boat tour into the Ria Formosa Natural Reserve and discover the bird sanctuary with a guide, take just the ferry and go for lunch and beach to a paradise island called Deserta, or stay in town for some wine and tapas. I won't leave you before you're settled! Be surprised!
