Guided Tour of Ayamonte & Vila Real – instead of the above tour of surrounding area
Join us this morning as we depart for Ayamonte to board our ferry crossing the Guadalmedina River to Vila Real, a charming city in Portugal. As the capital of the Vila Real district, it sits in the picturesque Trás-os-Montes region.   Our knowledgeable guide will lead us through the area, offering fascinating insights into its history and culture. After the guided tour, we'll have some free time to explore the city at our own pace.
Following the break, we'll take the ferry back to the hotel, leaving you with the rest of the afternoon free for leisure.
 

You will have the afternoon free to spend at your leisure. This is a great opportunity to try out some of the local tapas bars that you discovered on your morning walk.

This morning, set off on a guided excursion to Niebla. This town was established during the times of the Moors and retains a very rich historic legacy. Travel back in time, as you admire the town and the preserved medieval walls that surround it. During the excursion, there will also be a visit to a wine museum at Bodegas Andrade, followed by a short walking tour in the vineyards, where you can learn about the ancient art of producing wine. There’s a chance to taste four different wines, including the famous Andalucian Vino de Naranja (orange wine). There will be free time for lunch, before returning to the hotel.

You will have today free to spend as you wish. Why not take a trip along the coast to one of the nearby seaside towns for lunch, or relax on one of the numerous beaches?

You will start today with a visit of Huelva where you will have some free time for shopping and exploring this lovely port city.

After relaxing in Helva, you will continue your day's excursion to retrace the steps of Christopher Columbus. Begin with a visit to the nearby Franciscan Monastery of La Rabida, a place that Columbus called home while planning his first voyage to the New World. Afterwards, continue to the Muelle de las Carabelas (the Quay of the Caravels), where you will witness historical artefacts and discover what life was like on board the ships. Entrances to the monastery & museum are included.

Today, you’ll visit Andalucía’s most lively and colourful city, located on the banks of the River Guadalquivir. Seville is famous for flamenco, tapas and a rich cultural and architectural heritage.  On your panoramic city tour by coach, you will view highlights such as the San Telmo Palace and Golden Tower. There will also be a visit to the beautiful Plaza Espana and the Alcazar (entrance included).

You will have today free to spend at your leisure. Take a stroll on the beach, enjoy a cool drink and a few tapas, and perhaps do some souvenir shopping.

It’s time to bid farewell to the Costa de la Luz. You will be transferred to Faro airport with guide assistance, for your flight home.
