Faro Free Walking Tours

As the Capital of Portugal's beautiful Algarve Region, Faro has been emitting its old world charms. We joined this free walking tour while we were in Algarve and enjoyed it immensely. Those White-washed houses, cobblestone streets; plus a 13th century Cathedral and a Municipal Museum converted from a 16th century Convent, etc are all very well preserved, which are indeed timeless attractions. The city is not big. A half day tour will do. Several photos attached.

An absolutely amazing walking tour! The time flew by as we walked throughout Faro and the old town. The walking tour was rich in cultural and religious history too. Our tour guide, Marcel was excellent, he was so passionate about Faro and the history of Portugal, it was fantastic to hear about all of it. Marcel was approachable and humourous and answered all of our questions about Faro, he also really got to know all of the people in the tour group and tailored the information to their backgrounds and interests. Fantastic 2 hours well spent! The tours were all in English too.

We had a great tour this morning with our guide Rita. She was lovely, very interesting and informative and easy to listen to. We had already explored a bit of the city ourselves the day before, but she took us to some new places and gave us some added information about places we had already seen. The tour was a nice mixture of the historical and the contemporary. I would definitely recommend it.

Wonderful experience. Our guide Andreas was very informative, fun, and knowledgeable. We had a great time walking around and learning about Faro with him. Exactly what I was hoping I would get out of the tour, highly recommend

Andrea was an excellent guide, a well received (by the whole group as far as I could tell) combination of history and the current state and culture of the city. The bridges he made between the places you saw and their history were pure comedy when walking through the city, which made it very fun. Just take the tour when you are visiting Faro.
