The "anti-walking tour" walking tour
Much could be said about Faro—and too many hands are eager to steer that ship.
Some have taken the con relying on a formula that rafts people through a narrative just as time-worn as the places it showcases. Impersonal, crowded, exhausting—and in the words of Shania Twain, “That don't impress me much”.
This walk is charting a new course. It’s transforming the familiar city—with the same iconic monuments and popular spots found on any regular walking tour—into a journey that is deeply rooted and evenhanded to advertise all its glorious highs, the inspiring events, remarkable individuals and splendid artistry, while also confronting its murky lows and the neglected details of class, gender and race divide, intolerance, religious fervor and authoritarian politics.
Private, genuine and passionate storytelling, grafting my extensive academic background, teaching expertise in the subject, years of personal research and personal experience as a local.
Double flight of paratrike or paragliding.
We begin with a brief explanation of the flight equipment and safety standards, then we took off and have a breathtaking view of the beaches and cliffs of the Algarve. During the flight you will be given information about the landscape that we fly over, hotels and points of interest. Return to the initial landing site.
Other things to note
This activity depends very much on the weather, it is not always possible to fly due to the strong wind. But when we decide to fly it is because it is 100% safe to fly. The choice of paragliding or paramotor flight will depend on the weather for the day of booking.

A walk through the past one hundred years
Much could be said about the 20th century. It has been so fruitful in revolutionary shifts that it has earned it the moniker of “the longest century in history”: technology, world wars and their aftermaths, extreme politics, civil rights movements, decolonization, globalization, and environmental awareness are just a some of the ideas that shaped this extraordinary era.
In this light, European cities are a tapestry woven from both trauma and reconciliation—and Faro is no different. Nearly two-thirds of the city’s current built landscape was developed in the past 100 years, and to quote my mom, “Faro is old, but the city is only from the 1980s”.
Employing a fine blend of my extensive academic research and my family’s very own narratives, this walk was, ultimately, designed to bring to light how, over the span of one hundred years, the ever-changing dynamics of society and politics have intricately moulded the city we arrive at today—in all its cultural and urban aspects, its historical highs and lows, the good, the bad and the in-between—gathering insights from the past that could guide us towards wiser decision-making about our futures.
