Come with us and discover the essence of the ancient capital of the Algarve. Walk through the streets of this ancient city and find the traces of the people who passed through here.

The experience starts at 9:30 am, nearby the old bridge in Silves (chek the location on the meeting point icon, on top). The visit will finish in the same location.

Let's start by visiting the local market and finding the best products that are produced in the region. During the tour we will contemplate the architecture and interpret the diversity of styles.

Upon entering the city inside the wall, we will discover the archaeological wealth that’s exists here. We will enter the Cathedral, one of the most important Gothic buildings in the Algarve, and enter the Castle, one of the most peculiar Muslim fortifications in Portugal, built in red sandstone.
