This experience has been created by a local ‘expert’ who knows and loves the city. It combines sightseeing and storytelling, as well as local insights. Think of it as your personal ‘insider guide’ to the city.
It’s designed for people who want to experience contemporary Portimao as much as its heritage. Using street art, architecture, and historical monuments to tell its story, you’ll learn about the people who shaped the city from its origins, and those who make it the cool and vibrant place that it is today. Along the way, you’ll ‘meet’ sculptors and street artists, a poet and a politician, a missionary and a pirate, as well as learning about the lives of ‘ordinary’ residents – the fishers and the factory workers.
As it is self-guided, you can start and finish whenever you like and stop as often as you like. You’ll be given suggestions for great places to eat, drink and shop ‘local,’ as well as ideas for other things to see and do after the tour.
