Our Algarve holidays
Europe at its sunniest but not its hottest – thanks to the beautiful Atlantic breeze – the Portugal’s Algarve is justifiably popular. Our holidays are perfect if you want to explore; not just the gorgeous golden beaches but the cliffs behind them, and the dunes behind those, and the wetland areas behind those, and the forests behind those – until you’ve peeled back the landscape’s every layer. Our Algarve holidays will get under your skin, too, whether that’s feeding you Fado music, Sagres views or fish stews cooked in a cataplana (clamshell-shaped metal cooker). We use local guides and Portugal’s turismo no espaço rural, family-run rural places to stay, so you can really get to know the area.

Exploring by bike
Feeling sprightly, and travelling lightly, you can cover a lot of ground on our cycling and e biking tours. You’ll follow tempting routes into the countryside, to find rural Portugal’s traditional towns surrounded by nature reserves and farmland. Cycling between sights takes a car off the road in a busy tourist region – and replaces it with someone hungry for a snack in the next village, and easily tempted by the pastries and coffee in the town centre. With your luggage transferred ahead of you, you are free to buy local produce each day, from Portuguese wine to picnic ingredients.Out and about on foot
On our walking holidays you’ll walk in cork, olive and almond groves, or find sandy trails along dunes, the sea never far away. The Algarve is hemmed by carefully maintained long distance routes – the Via Algarviana that goes to the Spanish border, and the Rota Vincentina, which goes right up through neighbouring Alentejo. Walking here is lovely outside of the peak summer season particularly, and our holidays on sections of these trails allow towns to benefit from rambling visitors coming outside of the peak months of the year.
Lovely places to stay
If you just want a beautiful bolthole, a place to stay put for a few days – then don’t compromise. Our accommodation in the Algarve takes sea views as seriously as their behind-the-scenes environmental credentials like solar panels, water saving mechanisms, biomass burners and options for plant-based catering. So, whilst you can enjoy traditional properties in stunning surrounds, know that the bird boxes and bee friendly planting are contributing to that special Algarve atmosphere too.
Nature reserves & protected areas
The Algarve is heaven for holidaymakers but a heaven for wildlife too, thanks to several important protected areas. The Southwest Alentejo and Vicentina Coast Natural Park protects the southwest coast, whilst running north inland in the southeast you’ll find Guadiana Valley Natural Park. And you might pick out pale pink flamingos against the waters in Ria Formosa Natural Park, a large estuary full of low-lying salt marsh. Birds love these wetlands – you will, too. Our holidays work with local people who are committed to protecting their surroundings, whether you’re in a protected area or not.

Excellent! A well chosen itinerary. Distances that give you a chance to arrive early and not too tired so you can visit on foot. Riding the quiet roads through orange groves and nice selection of accommodations.
