Book to see the real Portugal 🇵🇹

I booked this trip through Viator, my daughter & I wanted to explore some of the countryside in the evening. 🇵🇹☀️. We met our driver close to our hotel which was excellent !✨He was very friendly & funny from start to end! He gave us lots of information along the way!✨ The Algarve is beautiful! We passed through a few villages, and our first stop was at a farm. We got to see peacocks, ducks, geese, chickens, goats, a pig & horse! 🦚🦆🐓🐐🐖🐴 We also got to taste honey, jams & ‘fire water’. So many drops are growing on this farm, it was really lovely. 🌱🌳🌶️ Our second stop was at a ‘custard pie factory’, but due to the time of our trip they’d sold out! 🤩 We had lemon meringue pie & cake which was so good.🍰🍥 Our next stop was at the ‘“Queda de agua do vigario” waterfall! 🌱💦 There are many steps down, but so worth it! Beautiful. Finally we went up into the mountains to watch the sun set at Messines. 🌅 Here you have 360 degrees view of the surrounding countryside! The sunset spot itself is beautiful! I definitely recommend you go on this trip, it’s super good value for money & I feel you get to see the ‘real’ Portugal, a must see! ❤️🇵🇹

Ria Formosa Natural Park and Islands Boat Cruise from Faro

Jean_R, May 2026

Island tour to the Deserted Island and Farol Island in the lagoon with very knowledgeable guide. A+

It was a very scenic tour in the lagoon next to Faro. The guide was very informative and kept a captive audience with his knowledge of the area. We visited two islands - the “Deserted Island” and Farol Island. We had a chance to explore both with ample time before returning to the Marina. We also saw quite a bit of wildlife, namely birds along the way. Excellent tour!

Must visit while in Portugal

Benagil Cave was breathtaking and truly one of a kind, while the stunning cliffs and crystal-clear waters of Praia da Marinha exceeded all our expectations. Carvoeiro was charming, picturesque, and the perfect place to experience the beauty of the Portuguese coast. Diana Gohdingo our tour guide make our experience memorable

A very interesting and enjoyable trip

Great trip, really convenient meeting point and the staff were very professional. We were directed to the boat to meet our captain who was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the islands we would be visiting. We made three stops at very quiet, tranquil islands with very interesting communities. We saw a lot of wildlife and learned so much about the locations and history.

10/10 would recommend

Sebastian was a great tour guide, friendly, funny and very considerate of the range of ability in our group. Had a great time walking and being able to see the caves from above, he answered all our questions, helped us with photos and even suggested how we could come back with transport to do the walk/trail. The boat tour was quick but had some lovely views and just such an awesome experience. After we finished with some free time near the beach, the cafe had some great food and wine, food was fresh and staff were very friendly. My aunts went down to the beach (i was hungry) but they enjoyed the beach and still had enough time to get some food after!

Tour guide was very...

Tour guide was very knowledgeable of the local area. He had great charisma, was very entertaining and made us feel safe throughout the journey. Was amazing to visit a local farm and try local produce. Beautiful sights along the way and the viewpoint for the sunset was breathtaking. Can't recommend this enough

Ana_N, Feb 2026

Just amazing!!

Miguel and Diego were incredible!! We had the best experience ever. They went above and beyond our expectations to make sure we had an unforgettable experience. Due to the weather conditions in the morning, we were offered to come back in the afternoon to do the Sunset Dolphin Watching for no extra cost! My family and I could not have asked for a better opportunity to see the dolphins putting on an amazing show whilst experiencing the beautiful sunset in the background!! Miguel and Diego were so accommodating especially with my children, they even saved them seats at the front of the boat! Muito obrigada Miguel and Diego, we will be back :-)

Great tour, highly recommended

We loved our afternoon tour of Algar Seco, Benagil Cave from the top, the coastal walk and Marinha beach. The scenery was spectacular. Meeting point in Faro was central and was easy to find. Tour guide Andres and driver Joao were both great, excellent English, very knowledgeable and the whole tour was really well organised with clear instructions and plenty of time at each location. We thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend you do this tour as well as a boat trip to the cave. The coastal walk was easy and gave absolutely amazing views so make sure you do it. Thank you Andres and Joao for a really thorough 5 hour tour and a great afternoon!
