The
Village Of Guia Guia is a typical old village in the Algarve where they still hold
a morning market selling fresh fruit and vegetables, bread, fish and other local produce. However Guia has moved with
the times and can offer a local supermarket which is open daily, a butchers, three banks and a couple of cafe bars for light
refreshment. The main reason people come into Guia is for its numerous fantastic restaurants which specialise in Chicken
"Piri-Piri".
