A salt-bitten wind meets the minibus as it peels away from Faro, and the Atlantic quickly takes over the soundtrack: waves daring you to come closer, gulls sketching the sky.

8 hours.
Mostly vehicle-based with short to moderate walks on uneven coastal terrain; suitable for most fitness levels.
Tours depart from Faro; pickup points are typically in central Faro — confirm your exact pickup when booking and allow a few extra minutes for shared group pickup.
Lunch is not included but the itinerary normally stops in Sagres for a meal; there are several seaside restaurants serving fresh seafood and local dishes.
The vehicle and some viewpoints are stroller-accessible, but cliffside paths and steps to beaches are uneven and can be challenging for limited mobility — contact the operator if you need special assistance.
Basic entry fees for listed museums, churches or monuments are included as noted in the tour inclusions; confirm specific sites if you plan to spend extra time inside museums.
The Sagres promontory and Lagos were key nodes in 15th-century Portuguese exploration; Henry the Navigator gathered pilots and shipbuilders here.
