A wonderful day of wondering

Fantastic trip! Super interactive, lots of interesting information provided in a really engaging and fun manner. Simao was great, ensured everyone was included and made sure the best photos were taken. I’d go again if I found myself in Faro another time!

Excellent experience

I had an excellent experience on this hiking excursion! From pickup to drop-off, everything was well organized and ran smoothly. Our guide, Arthur, was fantastic—very friendly, attentive, and always making sure everyone was comfortable and taken care of. He was especially mindful during some of the steeper parts of the hike, ensuring we moved at a good pace and felt safe throughout. His support and positive attitude really made a difference. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-guided and enjoyable hike!

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!

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.

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.

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.

4 Stops | 3 Islands & Ria Formosa Natural Park - From Faro

MaryBeth_B, Oct 2025

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.

Desfrutando a boa vida

Beautiful location with delicious wine, lovely views and a pool to cool you off. We spent the afternoon enjoying wine, the reds especially, tapas and swimming. The tour of the winery was informative and we learned new facts. The kids were treated to homemade pastries, ice cream and juice which made the experience special for them.

Benagil Cave Tour From Faro - Discover The Algarve Coast

Joseph_D, Aug 2025

Faro tour

We were on a tour of the caves in Faro - which were beautiful - the sea and scenery were breathtaking. Most of all we thank the driver of our van Jerome Vincent for taking such good care of us. As we are an elderly couple some of the path was a bit rocky. Jerome always had his hand out so we would not trip on the rocky road. He explained so many features to us and we think Faro is so beautiful. Jerome thank you for your help and kindness. Gary and Michelle
