Don’t miss the Barrio Santa Cruz, the former Jewish quarter.

### Algarve

From Seville, drive (or take the bus) to **Lagos**, at the far end of the Algarve region (Portugal). Enjoy a few days here lounging on the beach, exploring the **Ponta da Piedade** rock formations by boat, surfing, and visiting pretty whitewashed villages.

[![World Wild Schooling - https://worldwildschooling.com Spain and Portugal 14-Day Itinerary: Best Things To Do According To Travel Experts - https://worldwildschooling.com/spain-and-portugal-itinerary-14-days/](https://worldwildschooling.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Pousada-Palacio-de-Estoi-1024x682.jpg)](https://www.booking.com/hotel/pt/pousada-de-estoi.en-gb.html?aid=7972686&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2&label=Best-14-Day-Itineraries-in-Spain-and-Portugal)

Next, move to the Central Algarve coast for two nights. There you can go hiking on the stunning Seven Hanging Valleys Trail.
