I have been interested in birds since the age of 10 and birdwatching regularly since the age of 15. This lead me to be involved with the French partner of BirdLife International (Ligue pour la Protection des Oiseaux) and I have worked in several Nature Reserves in France. I have been working as a guide since 2010 and have experience of birdwatching in various countries (France, Greece, USA, Tunisia, Djibouti, Portugal and Spain). I am also a licensed bird ringer in Portugal and punctually works for an environmental consultancy company, mainly focusing on raptor migration. I am also a regional reviewer for ebird (Brittany) and a regional coordinator for the Common Bird Census in Portugal I am fluent in French, English and Portuguese. I have been living and guiding in the Algarve since 2010. No

Morning walking tour to discover charming Alvor city
Overview of your Portimao tour
A small fishermen's village, an important wetland for birds and local seashell harvesters, come with me and discover Alvor! For this tour, you will be guided by one of the best bird-guides in the Algarve (and the only one fluent in French). Alvor is an ancient place which was important for the Romans. After the invasion of the Iberian peninsula by the Maurs, Alvor became an important centre of the Maurish life. The name Alvor comes from the Arabic Albur, meaning "incult land". Let's explore the small streets of Alvor and walk to the castle and church which dominates the city and the Ria de Alvor. We can also wonder around the beach and marina thanks to the boardwalk which allows us to explore the area and its amazing wildlife. Let me tell you everything there is to know about this place! Let yourself be carried by the scents of the air, warmth of the sun and kindness of the people and discover the true nature of one of the most typical fishermen's village of the Algarve.
