Algarve Nature Tours is a Faro-based activity provider offering a broad range of guided and self-guided experiences across the Algarve. The company organizes nature-focused adventures — including scuba diving introductions, multiple birdwatching trips, coastal and mountain hikes, cultural walking tours, pottery workshops, horse riding and guided visits to local industries such as cork production and rock salt mines. Tours originate from Faro, Faro District, and visit key Algarve destinations such as Sagres, Salgados lagoon, Ria Formosa and Albufeira. Several itineraries are led by local guides; select birdwatching experiences are highlighted by a seasoned guide with 30 years of field experience. Offerings include both guided half-day trips (for example, birdwatching at Salgados lagoon and Ria Formosa) and full-day explorations (such as self-guided cycling from Sagres to Vila Real de Santo António). A mix of immersive cultural activities — like Olhão walking and lunch experiences, pottery workshops, and the Cork Factory guided tour — complements active options such as scuba diving baptism lessons and horse riding along the Albufeira coast. Algarve Nature Tours provides practical local knowledge and structured itineraries that let visitors explore marine life, migratory birds, historic towns and traditional crafts.
