Another good day with SWEA
A stroll through the city of Faro! Many thanks to Gun Persson and our excellent guide Carla de Sousa. Additionally, many ladies participated in this visit, which included a good lunch.
In our 90 minute tour we felt that we got a very good history lesson. One that we will be able to look back on having enhanced our visit.
Don't be fooled by others claiming to guides. Carla is licensed to do tours while others are not. All licensed guides must where a medallion attesting to their status. So beware or better yet contact Carla!
Un grand merci à Carla pour cette belle balade à la découverte du Lagos historique. Une guide à l'écoute de nos questions et pédagogue. On conseil.
I did a Walking Tour with Carla, and it was truly a fantastic afternoon. The local knowledge, combined with the extensive historical knowledge of the city, made the entire tour a unique experience. I highly recommend it to everyone visiting the city of Lagos! Thank you, Carla.
Carla is a very seasoned guide with lots of experience and it showed in her knowledge, skills and interactions and made Algarve enjoyable for us.
Carla did a walking tour in Lagos yesterday for our group and it was fantastic. I’ve been coming to this area for 5/6 years and I learned so many things I didn’t know. She has a wealth of knowledge and she is entertaining too.
I highly recommend booking one of her tours which include half day trip to surrounding towns
