Historical tours in Albufeira pull you off the beach and into the older Algarve, the part most people drive straight past on the way to the sand. Book one and a driver-guide takes the wheel while you take in the castle towns, whitewashed villages and inland viewpoints sitting just behind the coast.
When you compare historical tours in Albufeira, look at how far west the route runs. A safari-style day pairs the old town's lanes with a hilltop castle, a waterfall stop and a couple of sleepy villages. Want more ground covered? A full-day guided day trip swings out to the western Algarve, Silves and its red castle, Lagos, and the cliffs near Sagres. Most go out as a small-group or private trip with hotel pickup, so the itinerary does the planning for you.
