Hello, I am Thyl (pronounced “Teel”). I moved to the town of Silves 5 years ago and love it! I am an explorer and a painter, as well as a nature and history enthusiast. It is a joy to share with others the places and landscapes that I find interesting and to transmit some local knowledge.
A few years ago I started guiding (and driving) tours with small groups in the local countryside (Jeep Safaris in the hills, Boat Cruises on the river and Walking Tours). The main interest was nature but I always hoped one day to also focus on the culture of the place where I live.
At home, my bookcase is full of history books and now, after the necessary research, I am pleased to present, in a fun and friendly way, the amazing town where I live.
Meet place was easy to find with free parking. Great ending spot for individuals to choose where to further explore. Appreciated recommendations for local tips. Liked that he often stopped to talk in the shade. Shared personal stories to enhance interest. Seemed well researched- politics, economics, history. Thank you from Canada
Very nice walk around Silves. Thyl was informative, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the walk and really enjoyed our lunch afterwards at a little spot he recommended. Great way to spend a few hours in Silves.
Great walk lots of interesting facts and fabulous way to see Silves
Thyl has a very good knowledge about history, culture and lovely insights. We highly recommend him as a guide. Thank you.
