Monchique Tour with Filipe
We highly recommend any tours with Filipe! He was very knowledgeable, professional and kind!
The Monchique tour had some walking and driving. Our favourite part was seeing the Storks and their babies! Also drinking the spring water and filling up our water bottles.
Thank you Filipe for an awesome tour experience!

Amazing!
Filipe was an excellent guide! He had so much knowledge to share. We saw beautiful and interesting parts of the Algarve I wouldn’t have seen without this tour. It was easy to see Filipe enjoys his job. I’ve already recommended this tour!

Great tour of Silves and Monchique.
Driver/guide was very friendly and provided lots of information on the history of the area, the industries and the agriculture. Only my wife and I on the tour. Highly recommended.

Exceeded our expectations!
Our tour of Silves and Monchique was excellent. Felipe knew absolutely everything about the towns and sites we visited, sharing information along the way and during our tours - very involved yet giving us plenty of time to explore and shop on our own. When I mentioned that I loved cork Portuguese handbags, he made sure that we examined the cork trees and bark that we saw during the tour and found cork stores for me to look into. He gave us two cafe recommendations, and then recommended menu items in the wonderful little Monchique cafe that we chose (the Iberian black pig was indeed tasty). The wine tasting at the end of the tour was the perfect end to a perfect day!

Views didn’t disappoint
We did this tour and we were the only ones on it. It was great. We saw some gems of Portugal. So I know some reviews said don’t waste money and drive yourself but honestly you could not enjoy the landscape and views. It was actually one of the better tours I have taken since in Portugal. Sergio was very knowledgeable and friendly. Since it was just us he told us to take our time. We even had a glass of wine and enjoyed the view

Antônio was the best...
Antônio was the best host! He was attentive and personable and communicated well throughout the tour. He allowed for extra time during the winery stop since it was the last stop of the tour. Being a smaller a group made for an overall better experience.

Go Monchique
The relaxing drive into the Monchique countryside with our lovely driver Magdelana. The views from the top were gorgeous as was the liquor.

Cute little trip out
Good tour of areas you wouldnt see. Good company to book through as they were professional . The tour didn’t have a huge highlight. . We visited studio bonagart in monchique which I highly recommend

Don’t miss this day trip …
Brilliant day, start to finish, couldn’t recommend it more highly if I tried. Antonio was very friendly, knowledgeable and interesting, kept us informed from before the trip, and throughout the day of the trip. We visited the most beautiful places, well off the beaten track, nothing was rushed, but neither was there too long on any location. My favourite trip this holiday, and possibly ever in Portugal.
