Next take the opportunity to admire Monchique, a typical village located in a scenic range of rounded hills where you will have free time for shopping for local handicrafts.

Continue on to Lagos, a town linked to the Portuguese Discoveries. Join a guided visit of the Antonine Museum within the Golden Chapel of St. Anthony, the slave market and the statue of Prince Henry the Navigator.
