Lisbon and the Algarve

Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2004 | We start in Lisbon, where salty sailors' quarters and wistful fado singers mix with ornate architecture to recall the glory days when Vasco da Gama and Magellan made Portugal a world power. Then on to the Algarve where we explore the Land's End of Europe — windy and historic Cape Sagres — before savoring pristine beaches and arm-wrestling octopuses in the sleepy fishing village of Salema. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #portugal Visit http://www.ricksteves.com for more information about this destination and other destinations in Europe. *Check out more Rick Steves’ Europe travel resources:* • “Rick Steves’ Europe” public television series: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/… • “Travel with Rick Steves” public radio program: https://www.ricksteves.com/watch-read-listen/… • European tours: https://www.ricksteves.com/tours • Guidebooks: https://store.ricksteves.com/shop/guidebooks • Travel gear: https://store.ric
