Algarve - Faro, Lagos & Sagres
Algarve - Faro, Lagos & Sagres
Donatella Fabris
I spent 5 days in the Algarve region and I loved every moment of it. This guide is not huge because a big part of the trip was to relax, enjoy the moment and be spontaneous, but it will still give you enough information to fill your days and plan your trip to Portugal 🇵🇹

Thank you!
I always start my guides with a thank you, but I really mean it. Thank you for choosing my guide and these are some low-effort ways you could support me:
- Follow me on Instagram @ponytella.travels
- Save my guide and leave a review/comment
- Book your accommodations through the links I provide on the guide. This way I will receive a small commission but the total price that you will pay on Booking remains the same. It won't cost you anything, but it would make a difference to me
