The Algarve looks a little different once you leave the coast behind. Travelling in a small group by open-roof 4x4, you'll follow rural tracks past cork oak forests and centuries-old charcoal ovens. From January to early July, there's also a crossing of the Algibre stream. Then, it's on to Alte and its spring-fed natural pools before a family distillery visit to try medronho – a traditional fruit brandy made from arbutus berries – alongside local honey, jams and olive oil. A secret artisan workshop is tucked into the route, offering a glimpse of a rare local craft and skills passed down through generations.
