Take a private day trip from Albufeira to the east of the Algarve. Shop at the Olhão Market to purchase local produce and then follow your guide to the town of Tavira to admire the long beach. Visit the Islamic Museum to see the archaeological collection before exploring the cobblestone streets of Faro’s Old Town. After boarding in Albufeira, visit the Municipal Market of Olhão, which was built in 1912 and opened four years later. Admire the iron and glass architecture of the building and its brick structure. Look at the fish, fruits and vegetables for sale in this market and buy things if you want. Continue to Tavira, a city on the banks of the Gilão River, on the Algarve coast, near the Ria Formosa Natural Park. Admire the beach and marvel at the salines that attract flamingos, spoons and other birds. Contemplate the castle and the Church of Santa Maria do Castelo, which houses the tombs of seven knights. Then head to the Museum of the Tavira Islamic Center, which opened in 2012, and explore an archaeological collection from the Islamic period. Then head to Faro to admire the Arco da Vila, neoclassical style. Learn how the monumental arch leads to the cobbled streets of the old town, near the 13th century Faro Cathedral. You will be able to enjoy the wonderful view of the Ria Formosa, a salty swamp that extends to many municipalities of the Algarve. Discover how the natural park extends through Loulé, Faro, Olhão, Tavira and Vila Real de Santo António, covering an area of approximately 18,400 hectares, based on the commentary of the guide. Then return to Albufeira to leave it at your hotel.
