Monchique, often referred to as the Garden of the Algarve, is a mountain region of high environmental quality, pleasant climate and strong traditions.
The Serra de Monchique Tour is the ideal choice for anyone who wishes to enjoy a calm and relaxing tour while having fun riding a Segway, taking in unique details of nature, such as fresh, clean air, babbling brooks, earthy scents and chirping birds.In the centre of the city you can enjoy a breathtaking view from the São Sebastião park lookout, visit Monchique Igreja Matriz church dating back to the early 16th century and the Nossa Senhora do Desterro convent. You can also take in the narrow streets of the city, admiring the whitewashed houses with their traditional chimneys, and of course a visit to the handicraft shops. You can also climb to the top of the mountain to Picota or up to Algarve’s highest point above sea level Fóia, from which you can survey the vast landscape that extends from Cabo de São Vicente (St. Vincent Cape) to Serra da Arrábida (Arrábida Mountain).

* There’s an extra cost of €22 per group for groups with numbers equal or superior to 2pax. This cost is relative to the transportation back to the top of the mountain.
