10
Silves Monchique

• Today is a full-day of discovery and history,
  where you visit some of the most interesting and
  scenic areas of the Algarve.
• Steeped in tradition, encompassing the mountains
  and the sea its the perfect way to acquaint with
  the Algarve.
• Stroll the charming town of Silves, in Moorish
  times the capital of the Algarve, named Xelb.
  In Silves you can visit the castle, which dates
  from this period and affords magnificent views
  over the surrounding countryside. You can also
  see the impressive Gothic Cathedral and end the
  tour with a visit to the cork museum.
• Lunch at a local restaurant.
• From here we continue our ascent into Monchique
  Mountains to enjoy the green hills, pure air,
  tranquility and dramatic views from the highest
  point in the Algarve Foia. We visit the sleepy
  spa village of Caldas de Monchique. Legend says
  they are source of eternal youth!!!
• Ending the experience your chauffeur will take
  you back to your hotel.

11
Lagos Sagres

• Explore the most fascinating and scenic areas of
  the Algarve.
• During the morning, you will be collected at
  your hotel by your chauffeured luxury vehicle and
  you will take the coast to the western part of
  the Algarve.
• The first stop will be the town of Lagos with
  its modern marina pointed with yachts. Visit the
  Golden Chapel of Santo António and the old slave
  market near to the statue of Prince Henry the
  Navigator. Enjoy the magnificent views, over the
  intriguing rock formations of Ponta da Piedade.
  The crystal clear water and the rock bridges and
  grottoes make this a fascinating place to
  explore.
• Lunch at a local restaurant.
• Follow the coastline direction to Sagres, where
  a giant finger of rock points to the ocean and
  where a few buildings evoking the past of a place
  stands, remembering the Vila and the defensive
  fortress founded by Henry the Navigator, was an
  infante (prince) of the Portuguese House of Aviz
  and an important figure in the early days of the
  Portuguese Empire, being responsible for the
  beginning of the European worldwide explorations.
  He is known in English as Prince Henry the
  Navigator . He was the third child of King John I
  of Portugal, the founder of the Aviz dynasty, and
  of Philippa of Lancaster, the daughter of John of
  Gaunt. Henry encouraged his father to conquer
  Ceuta (1415), the Muslim port on the North
  African coast across the Straits of Gibraltar
  from the Iberian peninsula, with profound
  consequences on Henry's worldview Henry became
  aware of the profit possibilities in the Saharan
  trade routes that terminated there and became
  fascinated with Africa in general he was most
  intrigued by the Christian legend of Prester John
  and the expansion of Portuguese trade.
• It is a common conception that Henry gathered at
  his Vila on the Sagres a school of navigators
  and map-makers. He did employ some cartographers
  to help him chart the coast of Mauritania in the
  wake of voyages he sent there, but for the rest
  there was no center of navigational science or
  any supposed observatory in the modern sense of
  the word, nor was there an organized navigational
  center.
• In Crónica da Guiné Henry is described as a
  person with no luxuries, not avaricious,
  speaking with soft words and calm gestures, a man
  of many virtues that never allowed any poor
  person leave his presence empty handed.
• Nearby, at one of the most westerly points of
  the European continent (after Cabo da Roca), is
  the Cape of S. Vicente (a sacred place for the
  Romans, who named it Promontorium Sacrum) opening
  on to a vast horizon of sea and sky. Now a
  lighthouse perches atop the stunning cliffs.
• At the end of the tour, your chauffeur will take
  you back to your hotel.

  variety of wine merchandise and souvenirs.
• Sir Cliff has loved the Algarve for over 40
  years and his idea to plant a vineyard at his
  property, Quinta do Moinho, was the genesis for
  the Vida Nova wines. Sir Cliff takes a very
  active part and can often be seen getting his
  hands dirty in the vineyard or the winery. Vida
  Nova Tinto, Rose and now Branco are produced at
  the Quinta do Miradouro winery.

  En-route, you will stop in Reguengos in order to

  vineyards.
• The Herdade do Esporão was acquired by Finagra
  with the main purpose of producing wines of great
  quality. From 1975 until 1979, the Herdade do
  Esporão was occupied during the revolutionary and
  agricultural periods. Only after this period
  Finagra was allowed to go ahead with the winery
  project. The modern cellars were built in 1987.
  In 1989 the first wine "Esporão" was considered
  one of the best Portuguese wines and three years
  later the brand "Monte Velho" was launched. In
  1995, after Esporão brands were considered among
  the best ones, new investments were made. A new
  area of vineyard was planted and the existent was
  completely renovated. A dam with 4.000.000 m3
  capacity was built, feeding a drip irrigation
  system that covers all the vineyard. The purchase
  of Perdigões Estate, with 180 ha of vineyards,
  the expansion of the cellar and the construction
  of the wine tourism complex are some of the most
  recent investments of this dynamic company
  developing the "Herdade do Esporão".
• Lunch will be at the estate restaurant and you
  will have the opportunity to taste, further to
  their cuisine some of the local olive oils and
  cheeses, paired with some of their excellent

  during which you will be lectured on the local
  monuments history, like the Roman Temple, the
  Bones Chapel and the Cathedral. ''Evora is the
  finest example of a city of the golden age of
  Portugal after the destruction of Lisbon by the
  earthquake of 1755.
• Due to part of the town being enclosed by
  ancient walls, preserved in its original state
  and to its monuments dating from various
  historical periods, Évora is included in UNESCO's
  World Heritage list. At the end of the day your
  chauffer will take you back to Algarve.
