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!

Gorgeous beautiful experience!
Ultimate fantastic tour of the Benagli caves and all other scenic coastal cliffs and beaches viewed on the high speed boat. Incredible experience which was a highlight of nature’s serene beauty. Our tour guides, Sebastian and Claire, were welcoming, attentive and provided historical references.
We were connected to the high speed boat operators, GPS & the one hour ride was amazing!! Really enjoyed this tour and the beautiful Algarve region. Nice to avoid the high tourist summer season as we visited in late April. Everyone we encountered were pleasant, friendly and nice!
Our meeting point was at the Faro train station and we confirmed our time with Sebastian the night before. The Viator ticket displayed 10:00 am but the details on the tour overview stated 8:20 am. So make sure you confirm and hopefully Viator updates the ticket display to the proper timing. Loved it. Thank you.

Stunning views everywhere...
Stunning views everywhere you look on this tour, and amazing value for money. Eduardo, our guide, was charismatic, very knowledgeable about the area and is a photographer extraodinaire! I would highly recommend this tour for solo or group travellers, great way to spend a day when in Faro.

A Fun and Insightful Way to Discover Faro
Sophia’s Tuk Tuk tour of Faro was a highlight of our trip. She’s incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, sharing great stories and local insights that brought the city to life. The tour felt personal, fun, and well-paced, with plenty of hidden gems along the way.
If you’re visiting Faro, this is a fantastic way to explore the city—highly recommended!

Gotta love a Landy Rover.
We had Carla as our driver/guide and had a great day, Carla was very professional and knowledgeable.
Great fun going off the beaten track infact the off road part reminded us of driving on the UK roads, plenty of potholes.
Joking aside a great experience.

Great day trip and perfect for kids!
We had a wonderful time on our tour with Claire. She brought us to some really beautiful sites along the coast. We were able to hike around and explore and we stayed the right amount of time. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wanted to check out the beautiful southern coast. Make sure you bring cash for the snack bar at the end!

Western Algarve Full Day Bus Tour
This full-day tour is very worthwhile as an opportunity to see parts of the Algarve that would otherwise be missed. Silves was a great place to buy things (e.g. ceramics) as prices are much lower than major centers, and Lagos was charming. Cape St. Vincent was a great viewpoint that we weren't even aware of before the tour. Our guide Jonny was excellent and knowledgeable.

Sinatra, the mystical city of Portugal
Sinatra was exactly how I dreamed Portugal to be. The sights were beyond beautiful! This was our last day to have an excursion and, how i wish I'd known about this town sooner! Andre, our guide, was so knowledgeable and was such a gentleman to all the ladies that he would make his mama proud! It was great to see what Portugal was at one point in time. I pray the country can keep it's heritage alive. Thank you, Andre, for a great experience.

Lovely way to see Ria Formosa
We really enjoyed this tour. Antonio was a great guide. This tour was exactly as it is described. I even received a personal email the day before giving me exact instructions on where to meet and asking if I had any questions about the tour that they could help with.

Impressive castle in Silves and beautiful river/ocean front town of Lagos. Best views of Cape Saint Vicent.
Our tour guide, Johnny was prompt in picking us up at the designated area and happily entertained us with historical anecdotes along the way to various stops. The first stop at Silves, we were instructed on how to reach the castle (entry was not included) and given an hour and 10 minutes to see it plus the surrounding town. The castle didn’t disappoint and the town had a quaint architecture. The town church was closed unfortunately as well as the museum. The second stop was the oceanside town of Lagos which was very impressive with its churches, fortress walls, colorful boats along the river canal, and quaint little streets filled with local restaurants and shops. Johnny took us to a small restaurant for lunch (not included in the tour price) which we paid 22 Euros per person for all you can drink (wine, juice, or sodas), bread, olives, cheese, prosciutto, a main dish (choice of chicken, fish, blacken pork or vegetarian dish) and a slice of cake for dessert. Well worth it and delicious. The last leg of our tour was Cape Saint Vincent (also known as the end of the world). The views were overwhelmingly astonishing. No pictures can do it justice. You have to experience it in person to comprehend it’s majestic beauty. Definitely recommend this tour although it didn’t include costs of castle entry and lunch (costs approximately 28 Euros in total).

Great Day Out
Was a good way to see some of the Ria Formosa Park and learn some of the history of Faro. Our guide Joao was very friendly and took time to get to know all of the people on the tour. He told us a lot about the islands and answered all our questions. It can get a bit cold if the wind picks up so bring an extra layer.

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.
