The Last Stop of our Roadtrip: Tavira

For our last stop, we decided to stay in Tavira where there's both city as well as nature to discover. Besides this, it's also only about a 30 minute drive from Faro Airport.

Starting Our Day with a Hike in Benafim

To end our stay at Quinta do Freixo we had to complete the hike we had actually scheduled for the day before. After breakfast we made our way to the starting point and decided to do a 5 kilometer hike through the fields and mountains. There's multiple hikes offered, some less far, some further than the one we chose. It was an amazing experience but at the same time it was also pretty challenging since the temperatures were already extremely warm. The end of the hike takes you back to Quinta do Freixo where we could immediately jump in the pool for some refreshment.

Checking-in at OZADI Tavira Hotel

The drive from Benafim to Tavira took us about an hour. Upon arrival we were able to check-in immediately and were offered a welcome drink. The service was great! We, as usual, made our way over to the pool and took some time to relax.

Discovering Tavira City

After our moment to relax we got ready and made our way to the city center of Tavira. Another city which offers World Heritage sightseeing! Gorgeous architecture, a beautiful bridge, local souvenir shops and cute restaurants by the river. Tavira is sometimes also called the 'Venice of the Algarve' and is also the most Eastern point of the Algarve.
