They sailed across the sea, conquered the land, and ruled it for half a millennium before succumbing to the Christian re-conquest in 1249. Nearly a thousand years later, the Moorish presence can still be felt from the turret of a strategically situated castle looking out over a town to the distant sea. It lingers in white latticed chimneys -- miniature minarets that stick up out of red-tiled roofs, in walls decorated with blue and white azulejos and pots of painted pottery, in groves of almond and orange trees leaning against hillsides terraced by stone walls, in the many names beginning with the Arabic “Al”. Before the Moors, there were the Phoenicians and the Greeks, the Romans and the Visigoths – all attracted to the rugged waterfront and fertile soil of this strikingly beautiful land along Portugal’s southern shore</em>".<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/401538700685184956-9165165033196736148?l=algarve4u.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ibero2000http://www.blogger.com/profile/15710726977323808685noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401538700685184956.post-83826093125163078242008-06-28T18:12:00.000-07:002008-06-28T18:21:15.982-07:00Having a <a href="http://www.carhire4u.com/">rented car</a> available adds a whole new dimension to your holiday plans. Suddenly it's easy to get to the less crowded areas, go where the locals go and generally get off the "tourist trail" without getting involved in the complexities and restrictions of the local buses and trains. You can book it in advance (recomended as in my last post) and have it delivered to you at your arrival in Faro Airport. There are inumerous <a href="http://www.carhire4u.com/">car hire</a> companies on line that can provide it to you. Usualy they have very simple booking processes and you dont have to pay in advance, just do it at arrival.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/401538700685184956-8382609312516307824?l=algarve4u.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ibero2000http://www.blogger.com/profile/15710726977323808685noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401538700685184956.post-61166005494923661362008-06-18T08:57:00.000-07:002008-06-18T09:31:12.181-07:00Setting up your vacations must be done as earlier as possible as you can benefit from huge discounts doing so. Planning in advance can save you a lot of money in flights, accommodation and transportation.Also, if you choose to come on middle season you will eventually save just about 30-40% on your vacations, 50%+ if you come on low season. If you come for golf for example, you will find a very nice weather on January, February or March, and guess what? These are low season's months! You can find apartments to rent as low as €150,00 per week and <a href="http://carhire4u.com/">rent a car</a> for as low as €90,00 per week !!! If you stay longer than one week you can find even better deals.<br /><br />From November to March - <strong><span style="color:#000066;">Low Season</span></strong><br />From April to June and October - <strong><span style="color:#ff6600;">Middle Season</span></strong><br />From July to September - <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">High Season</span></strong><br /><br />Avoid high season if you can. You will be avoiding higher quotes, traffic, queues and so on.<br /><br />See you at sunny Algarve ;)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/401538700685184956-6116600549492366136?l=algarve4u.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>ibero2000http://www.blogger.com/profile/15710726977323808685noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-401538700685184956.post-67126301641425494432008-06-14T17:51:00.000-07:002008-06-14T18:39:04.386-07:00Algarve is the sunniest spot in all Europe.
