Faro: City tour

This tour is an excelent and easy way to get to know the highlights of the Faro in a short time! Faro, as the capital of Algarve, has more to offer than we may imagine, being a city full of history! Our tour starts in Manuel Bivar's garden, located in Faro's downtown, by the marina. While we head to the old town, we start introducing the history of the city, from its Phoenician occupation until the arrival of the portuguese, with king D. Afonso III. In the old town, we will see some of the most interesting buildings of Faro, like the cathedral, the episcopal palace, the city hall, the statue of our king and the archaeologgical museum. After the old town, we continue to explore the old part of Faro, formerly located within a sixteenth century fence. The rest of the tour is made alternating passages between old and modern areas of the city. All the twelve catholic churches of Faro are sighted and amongst them Our lady of Carmo's church, famous for its bone chapel. We will visit the highest point of the city, where Santo António's tower is located, passing by 5th october avenue, we will see Faro's old theatre and, off course, we will pass through our colourfull city market. During the tour, our guests will be adviced about places where they may eat, go for a drink at night and things to do in faro. The end of the tour will be in the same place where we started, which is the perfect location to further explore the city!
