Silves

Siéntase libre de explorar a su propio ritmo y descubrir

Parada: 1 h 30 min - entrada no incluida

Discover Silves’ Moorish legacy, sunlit castle walls, and the scent of orange trees in bloom. Once the Moorish capital of the Algarve, Silves is a city of crumbling red-stone ramparts, orange blossoms, and timeless views. Start your visit at the Castelo de Silves, wandering its impressive walls for sweeping vistas over the Arade River. Just below, explore the haunting Silves Cathedral, where Gothic arches meet Moorish echoes. Don’t miss the Municipal Museum of Archaeology, built around a medieval cistern. Stroll down Rua da Cadeia Velha, with its citrus trees and old-world charm, then relax by the riverfront with a glass of cold medronho or a bite of frango piri-piri and sticky Dom Rodrigo.

Alvor

Siéntase libre de explorar a su propio ritmo y descubrir

Parada: 1 h 30 min - entrada no incluida

Golden beaches, lazy estuary walks, and a peaceful old town make Alvor an easy delight. Framed by dunes, cliffs, and quiet cobbled streets, Alvor is a charming coastal escape. Begin on the Alvor Boardwalk, a peaceful path through estuary wetlands, ideal for birdwatching and sunset walks. Head to Praia de Alvor for low-tide beachcombing or venture to Praia dos Tres Irmaos for hidden coves. In the old town, wander Rua Marques de Pombal, lined with tiled houses and flower pots. Cap it off with grilled octopus, clams a Bulhao Pato, or sweet almond pastries at a harbor-view cafe.

Great transfer option.

I used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.

It was a fantastic trip.

We were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, we’d especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.

Best transport company anywhere

We absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. It’s worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. It’s 5 star rating is well deserved.

Excellent experience in traveling

We traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortable

Reasonably Priced and Safe Transportation

Gonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.

Daytrip never disappoints

We were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.

Great driver in Egypt

Used the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.

Comfortable and Safe Rides in Mexico

Used Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.

Great way to travel and see some sights on the way

We did not know what to expect with this trip and booked from Australia. We were initially looking for an easy way to travel from Granada to Malaga. We decided not to waste the opportunity to see something additional on our way. Miguel certainly exceeded our expectations. His English was excellent (unfortunately we speak very little Spanish), and he was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the regions as we passed through and also discussing some of the local ways. Miguel took us to Antequera as planned and ensured we were able to easily get our tickets to the attractions without any sense of rushing us. We were picked up and dropped off punctually and really enjoyed our trip. Hopefully we will return to Spain and we can use this service again sometime.

Excellent service

We used the service twice while in Thailand. Extremely prompt and efficient customer service. Best rate being offered in Chiang Mai for the travels. Polite, punctual, professional and English speaking drivers. Clean, comfortable vehicles. Being a regular visitor to Thailand, this was hands down the best service. Most pleased with the company. I hope it sustains the excellence of service that was rendered to us.

Know more about your day trip

Silves was the ancient capital of the Algarve during Moorish rule and remains one of Portugal's most historically significant towns. The imposing red sandstone castle (the best-preserved Moorish castle in Portugal) and Gothic cathedral dominate the skyline. During your 90-minute visit, you'll discover how this inland town controlled the region's trade and defense for centuries.

While Alvor is known for beautiful beaches, the 90-minute stop allows you to explore its charming old fishing village character. Wander the pedestrianized cobblestone streets, visit the 16th-century church, enjoy the wooden boardwalks over the Alvor estuary nature reserve, or sample fresh seafood at traditional restaurants. The village offers authentic Portuguese atmosphere alongside its natural attractions.

This 4-hour tour is perfect for travelers wanting to explore beyond beach resorts without committing a full day. The tour can be arranged for morning or afternoon, allowing you to enjoy hotel amenities or beach time during the remainder of the day. The short driving distances between locations maximize your exploration time in both Silves and Alvor.

Silves preserves significant Moorish heritage in its impressive red sandstone castle with massive walls and cisterns that once supplied water to the entire city. The narrow, winding streets of the old town follow original Moorish layouts. Archaeological excavations continue to uncover Islamic-period artifacts, some displayed in local museums. These elements provide insight into the Algarve's multicultural past.

Both destinations offer authentic shopping opportunities. Silves has shops selling traditional cork products, local wines, and pottery. Alvor features artisanal stores with handmade Portuguese goods and fresh local produce. Unlike more touristy areas, these towns provide opportunities to purchase authentic Algarvian crafts and foods directly from local producers during your visits.

Silves requires moderate walking with some uphill sections to reach the castle and cathedral at the town's highest point. The historic center is compact but features cobblestone streets and inclines. Most attractions can be visited within a 15-minute walk from where your driver will park. Those with mobility concerns can still enjoy beautiful views and the charming lower town areas.
