Sind Sie bereit für eine Bootsfahrt auf dem Fluss Silves?
This relaxing river journey lasts approximately 4 hours and departs from the meeting point at Restaurante Vista Rio – Hotel Riverside in Parchal, Lagoa. You will step aboard a comfortable boat with a maximum capacity of 16 passengers, ensuring an intimate and friendly atmosphere for your group. The tour is perfectly timed with the tide, allowing you to glide silently up the Arade River toward the historic town of Silves while enjoying the expert knowledge of your local guide.
Trade the salty sea for the lush greenery of the Algarve countryside. As you cruise, keep your eyes peeled for amazing local wildlife like flamingos, storks, and even turtles. You will have about 1.5 hours of free time to hop off and discover the wonders of Silves at your own pace. Visit the iconic red sandstone castle, explore the ancient cathedral, or simply enjoy a delicious lunch at a traditional café.
The return trip is all about relaxation and soaking in the tranquil river views. On the way back to Parchal, you can enjoy a refreshing drink while passing by picturesque farms and verdant landscapes. If you choose a sunset departure, you might even see the sun dip behind the hills multiple times as the river winds along! This experience is the perfect escape from the coastal crowds and a great way to dive into Portuguese history.
