Eastern Algarve- The best of the East

In this trip you will have the opportunity to visit the best of the eastern Algarve.

A visit to Faro with its roots in the 8th century B.C. period of the Phoenician occupation of the western Mediterranean, Ossónoba, the ancient name by which it was known at the time, was an important commercial post. Also dominated by the Romans, Byzantines, Visigoths and Moors, the city would only be conquered by the Portuguese in 1239 with D. Afonso III. Due to its privileged geographic location and safe harbour, Faro became a prosperous city during the Portuguese Discoveries.
