About This Tour

Discover the region's Moorish history and enjoy stunning views of the countryside and river. Your first stop is Silves, a town steeped in history, once the capital of the Algarve during the Islamic rule in the 11th century. Dominated by the impressive Silves Castle, a Moorish fortress, the town offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and river.
