Self-guided discovery walk Faro: a journey of history, nature and breathtaking scenery

Discover Faro as never before with this original interactive game experience. Using your cell phone, your challenge will start at Largo de São Francisco. Simply open your e-mail link and your adventure will begin.

Embark on a mysterious journey that takes you to the underground level of the Old Town, and perhaps, to an unexpected circus class. Discover why the storks no longer bring babies and meet a charismatic animal from the Ria Formosa which is the male that carries the young. Only by solving the 9 riddles, will you be able to access the best views of the city, and discover a selection of must-see bars and terraces in Faro.

Curious facts:

Get to know more about the city, discover the secrets of the main attractions, and learn about curious facts that you won't read elsewhere.

Find monuments and hidden secrets:

Our local creator created an interactive walk through the city. Cryptic indications make you wind through the cities streets, inviting you to pay attention to details which you usually won't notice. Once you've arrived at the next stop, you will have to solve a question: open your eyes and mind and use your location to find the right answer!

Enjoy:

While doing this discovery trail, you will get to know the city from another point of view. Even locals discover new facts while doing secret city trails!
