Night Life

Once a fishing village, Albufeira is now a popular resort town with beautiful beaches, buzzing nightlife and a charming old town.

After sunset, the centre of Albufeira comes alive with bars, restaurants, and shops to suit most tastes, from authentic Portuguese-fare to Irish, English, and Dutch restaurants and pubs. The tourist areas are divided into two main areas, 'The Strip', and the Old Town. The Strip's main street is full of bars, restaurants and open-air discotheques. It is a very nightlife oriented area, very popular with young people. The Old Town is situated at the seafront. Street-artists entertain the crowds and there is a large choice of restaurants, bars and shops. Albufeira has two main beaches and several important religious and architectural attractions.

My experience with RoutePerfect was fantastic! I really appreciate your service's help in planning my Europe trip! The planning process was seamless Everything was just fantastic with RoutePerfect, so again I thank you. I was very satisfied - 10 out of 10 with RoutePerfect. The package price was reasonable. In fact, I have already told several friends who are planning upcoming Europe trips about it, and they will be using it!

The trip was great, we really enjoyed it. The planning implemented via your site was really a key part of the trip, thank you for that. The location of all hotels was good, Verona we had a bit of a walk , but being close to the railway station was the key for us there, so no worries. Staff in all the hotels were great. The communication from RoutePerfect was excellent. So very happy overall!
