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.

We'll be travelling back to a time when the Portuguese were involved in the biggest enterprise in the world: discovering the sea route to Índia. And all this started from Lagos in southern Portugal. Lagos is a fantastic town in the western Algarve that in the 15th century was the operational base from which Portugal explored the African coast. It was here that prince Henry armed the caravels for the Discoveries. All over the town, street names allude to the Discovery. Among the historic buildings and monuments, the first slave market in Europe and the baroque St Anthony's church stand out. Ponta da Piedade will leave you speechless. it's hard to imagine so much beauty in one place! It has been called the most beautiful beach in the world. Our tour wouldn't be complete without a stop at St Vincent's Cape, the so called end of the world, and Sagres, the town nearby that still breathes history. We won't miss the Sagres Fortress either, or the Old School of Navigation! Let's go!
Walking tour of Lagos stopping at the Ancient Slave Market and visiting St Anthony's Church. Easy and flat walk. Possibility of joining an optional grotoes trip at Ponta da Piedade.
