On the Algarve Highland Private Expedition, immerse yourself in the essence of Algarvian mountainous nature, heritage, and local gastronomy, and indulge in a picturesque picnic that beckons you to the heart of the Algarve!

After being picked up at your accommodation, embark on a delectable private expedition lasting approximately 6 hours, traversing locales that shape the history and customs of our enogastronomic legacy. Enriched with captivating narratives and local insights, prepare to see and taste the Algarve in an unparalleled manner.

Begin by traversing the picturesque hills and valleys of Barrocal and the Monchique Mountains. Venture along the Barranco do Demo boardwalks, adorned with a suspended bridge and offering breathtaking vistas of the ravine.

Next, marvel at the panoramic views from Fóia, the highest peak in the Algarve, offering a bird's-eye perspective of the entire region in all its splendour.

Your journey continues to the idyllic village of Monchique, nestled amidst the hills. Here, amidst joyful locals and unique traditions, discover the culinary delights that define the region, including black pig sausages (chouriço), ham, medronho brandy, and melosa liqueur.

With your appetite whetted, indulge in mountainous cuisine and libations at one of the region's renowned vineyards, where a delightful outdoor picnic awaits, harmonised with wines from the estate.

Meanwhile, acquaint yourself with the vineyard during a guided tour.

Conclude your expedition by perusing our store, where you can acquire your preferred wines and other regional specialities.
