Hello there,

Can anyone advise me if there are any coach tours leaving the Algarve to Lisbon, Seville or Fatima(actually anywhere).

I have some rather akward relatives staying and am looking to pack them off somewhere for a couple of days. It would have to be a tour as such, because if they were dropped off anywhere without a guide that would probably be the last I see of them.


If anyone has a weblink or anything that would be great, I've checked the resident, unfortunately no joy.

Any help greatly appreciated.....

Regards all

Jake

Hi Jake

There are excursions from CVO including Lisbon & Seville which can be booked through various places in CVO. A word of warning - a few years ago we went on a day trip to Seville which was a journey from hell. Very early start (6am), coach broke down on the motorway and the air conditioning packed up , arrived back in CVO around midnight!

It will take your 'awkward' relatives a couple of days to recover - the centre of Seville is like a red hot furnace.

Partly our fault as we decided to go with a cheaper operator which goes to show you only get what you pay for.

Regards to all in CVO - see you in September

We are actually going on a 2 day tour from Carvoeiro to Lisbon,( including Cascais and Sintra ), next weekend. We booked from Galtur, the travel agent in the village and are going with Mega Tur. There is another company, Best Day, that does similar tours. They both do Seville and Fatima and many 1 day tours too. This is a first for us so keeping our fingers crossed

While I sympathise with you Jak, your post did make me laugh - let us know what you ended up doing with them, and did they make a successful return.
