Get inside the caves!!
Small boat with an expert captain lent itself to the best experience in the caves!! We saw so many and were even able to go inside some other boats could not. Our guide Sebastian was very knowledgeable and very passionate about his guests immersing themselves in the local culture. Great trip!

Great experience!
Although the rest of my group didn’t show up I ended up having a great time with my tour guide/driver. He was very talkative and friendly, showed me preety country side, historical village and a waterfall. At the end of the journey when heading back even took me to my preferred location( which was train station for me) so I wouldn’t have to worry about getting there on my own. Highly recommend, worth the time and money!

We had such a fantastic...
We had such a fantastic day trip to the Benagil caves and surrounding area today. From start to finish, everything ran like clockwork in the best possible way — it was clear that every detail had been carefully thought through.
A huge part of what made the experience so special was our guide, Diana. She was incredibly kind, friendly, and knowledgeable, and brought such a fun, relaxed energy to the whole day. She struck the perfect balance between being informative and keeping things light and enjoyable.
The organisation of the trip really stood out. From well-timed rest breaks to making sure the minibus was cooled down before we got back in, and even arranging shady spots for us to wait comfortably — it all made a big difference, especially in the heat. The free time at each stop was also really appreciated, giving us space to explore and take everything in at our own pace.
A particularly nice touch was the WhatsApp group Diana created for everyone, which made communication easy and added to the sense of group connection. She also went above and beyond by taking photos for us — both as a group and individually — in some truly beautiful locations, which we’ll really treasure.
Overall, a brilliantly organised and thoroughly enjoyable day. Highly recommend this tour, and especially Diana as a guide!

Really fantastic! Saw...
Really fantastic! Saw over 20 species through top notch binoculars and had a little stop over in the dunes. The guide was super knowledgeable about the birds and even provided the names in different languages. My highlight was seeing five spoonbills!!!

Great way to spend an hour in Faro
The Tuk Tuk offers a great way to whizz round the city's points of interest in a fun way. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour really interesting. The hour went past really quickly, with a couple of opportunities to hop off the Tuk Tuk at some key landmarks and places of historical importance.

Superb jeep tour
Wide variety of activities and sites. Our guide Johnny was brilliant, he entertained us with a range of local knowledge and fun facts. We stopped at a lot of places where you could go for a swim including a large waterfall so consider wearing swimwear under your clothes. Would thoroughly recommend this trip.

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 :-)

Shelby Heaven
Great tour of the museum with a very knowledgeable insider with great stories about Shelby and his cars. The last part of the tour takes you to the shop where the technicians convert the basic GT Mustang into a high powered,sleek Shelby. A must for Shelby fanatics

Highlight of our day in Faro area
It was an easy, pleasant drive to the factory where we had a very informative tour of the factory. Staff were onsite to provide demonstrations of cutting & grading cork plus impressive knife sharpening skills. It is a real treat to see skilled craftsman in action. There was lots of time for questions with knowledgeable staff. Supporting this small community & eco focused business was the highlight of our day.

Great day in the Algarve.
This was a wonderful tour that showed us different ways of life on the barrier islands of the Ria Formosa.. Barreta Island (formerly a leprosy colony) has only one restaurant and one fisherman's shack. It is beautiful and feels very remote. It is where the Ria Formosa and the ocean meet, with lots of turbulence and large waves. Ilha de Farol (Lighthouse Island) has a very chill, laid back beach vibe, pretty little cottages. Culatra Island, which is actually the same island, but a small fishing village on the other side of the island, shows you the real workings of the fishing industry and lifestyle.
Our guide, Joac, was very informative, friendly, humorous and made you feel safe with his navigation. The boat was very comfortable. The only unfortunate part was unfortunate that we were not able to meet the oyster farmers or watch the process, but Joac did his best to explain the process to us.
I would highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful trip through...
Wonderful trip through the Ria Formosa park and islands. We stopped at two islands, with an opportunity to swim, but the water was too cold already. One is empty, the other one is a village with narrow streets and small houses. Very nice for a walk. On the way back, we caught the beautiful sunset. Our guide and captain was very informative. We enjoyed the tour very much and would recommend it.

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!
