5 Wimbledon Algarve Abbey Tynedale Gate Cricket College Vets Tour Club Vilamoura, Edinburgh, Scotland Portugal Tour Dates Prices 25th-30th 7th-10th October Valid May July 2010 for SNAPSHOTS DESTINATION EXPLANATION The Algarve in Portugal has long been popular with sun-seeking tourists from the United Kingdom, and after you spend a few days down there, you will see why it is as popular as ever. The suave and debonair reaches of Vilamoura contrast well with the open-all-night party town of Albufeira to offer both ends of the tourist scale plenty to go at. HAPPY TOURIST! BULLFIGHTING IN ALBUFEIRA MINI GOLF - EXCEPTIONAL! Vilamoura basks on the glorious marina amidst the towns two beaches the red cliffed Falesia beach and the sandy shores of Marina beach. Both of which are crammed with year-round sun-bathers, volleyball matches and guilty looking morning joggers shaking of the previous nights excess. Surrounding the harbour, are countless open-fronted bars, pubs and restaurants. One of the central cafe s is Figo s Bar or Sete Cafe to give it its proper name. Part owned by the Portuguese Footballer Luis Figo, the bar pay s homage to all things Football with memorabilia from the who s who of the beautiful game. Other bars to look out for include The Irish Cabin, an Irish Bar to rival any good prices and excellent live music every night until around 3am; Akvavit is a Nautical bar with Swedish origins, on the expensive side, but well worth looking at during the day time for their lunchtime specials. Most bars stay open until the early morning hours, but if it is a nightclub your after, then head out to the Vilamoura Casino, the home of the Black-Jacks nightclub. One of the few places to be filled with countless local s dancing the night away to some of the county s top DJ s amidst light shows and special effects. For more in-expensive food and drink, head away from the harbour, and you ll find some chirpy little sports bars that will look after you for as long as you wish. The town is a real playground, you could fill your days and nights with Deep Sea Shark Fishing, Banana-boats, sunset cruises, snorkelling, mountain biking, highly recommended water park trips and even foam parties. If you want to see a bit of Portuguese culture, then we recommend taking a trip to the Bull Ring in Albufeira for some Bull Fighting - not for the faint of heart. All are available to book through ourselves or at the bustling market corner on the Marina. Cricket in the Algarve is an ex-pat based game. A handful of clubs base their annual fixture lists on playing touring teams from the UK. The game s are to be taken in a relaxed and friendly fashion. Look forward to the hospitable and friendly welcome! CLIENT TESTIMONIAL ENJOY THE SHADE! Sky High Sports really do know how to organise and deliver a memorable tour.
