Discovering Albufeira
We recommend starting your introduction to the city with a sightseeing tour of Albufeira. You can book a bus tour of Albufeira on the Albufeira Sightseeing Tour website. Buses leave every 30 minutes from the Municipio stop. It will cost 12 EUR (6 EUR for children), and you can also buy a ticket valid for 4 days for 32 EUR.
Departure Tours
The second popular type of excursions in Albufeira are field trips. For example, you can book a Russian guide and take a tour from Albufeira to Seville in Spain (expect to spend at least 11 hours on this tour).
There are smaller options, such as a visit to Faro, the region's capital (a beautiful 16th-century city with flamingos living on a deserted island in its vicinity), or Evora (where you'll find Portuguese cheeses and sweets). The approximate cost of such excursions from Albufeira is 150-500 EUR.
