It was a great experience! Our guide, John was amazing and very informative about the history and different vegetation in the area!
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Micheal our driver was great fun and very knowledgable. Vineyard was beautiful
It is a small group which is perfect. Normally there would be 6-8 but we were only 4. Guide was very knowledgeable of the local trees, flowers and fruits. First stop at the farm was fun. On to the winery for a tour and tasting.
Jeep Safari was good fun & our guide Fred was very informative about the history of Portugal & very funny.
The wine tasting experience was also good & set in the mist beautiful grounds. The owner gave us a tour & a very interesting talk & then we were given 4 wines to try & a small grazing board.
Overall a very good trip

If you feel like driving through local village roads to see old Algarve neighborhoods inside an old jeep, then this is your excursion. The winery part was nice and informative. Could have had more wineries as part of the trip.
They squeezed in four glasses of wine at the end of the tour.
The tour is hosted from an open top jeep. Windy! Hold your hats, sunshades a good idea. They drive you around a few small towns and point out highlights. Trees, crops, etc. A wee bit of off roading. You go to a farm for a presentation of liqueurs and jams. You can purchase..take lots of cash, not cheap but home made. The wine tour offers some good operations information. We did not have a host who talked us through the actual wine tastings, she just poured and everyone drank at their leisure. You are provided a few pieces of cheese, meat and crackers...a small serving so eat before you go. Take water. In all fairness, the wine tasted 'young'. If full body is your preference, we have yet to try those on this tour.
John was our jeep guide. Very nice, interesting and punctual.
The whole experience was fantastic very good guide. Saw some beautiful places and the vineyards was amazing lovely friendly place. Wine was fantastic and great tour
The vehicle can be high to get in to could do with small folding step but the journey was good the views are stunning the driver very informative of the area and produce, a very good taste of rural Portugal
Fred was great, gave us some interesting facts about the history of the area, kept us entertained on the gentle parts of the trip and safe on the rough terrain.
The experience was great! The driver was very informative and friendly. However, I’m unsure if it was due to the language barrier but the admin side made an error with pickup address. Notified them they confirmed the updated address and still had the driver go to the wrong address on the day off. Thankfully the other address was about 10 minutes from the correct address so he came to get us but we almost didn’t go and I’m sure I would’ve had to go through a lot for a refund. Besides that the experience and activity was good
Excellent tour! Marco was fun and informative. We appreciated the laid back vibe and old tunes :) The wine was delicious and Bruno was a great tour guide.
Absolutely fantastic from start to finish made all the better by our fabulous guide. Not only did we visit and learn so much from the vineyard but also a lovely organic farm where we tasted honey, liqueurs etc all made from the fruit grown. Our guide’s knowledge of the area (his home town) and other really interesting information and his interest in all of us and where we were from etc. made it a very pleasurable experience. Well recommended.
Driver knowledgable and friendly
Local farm stop was fun and informative
Natural springs were just amazing
This trip was a lot of fun. We got to drive in a jeep over some really tough patches of road. We also had a group of hens on our trip and another couple from the UK. It's always nice to meet new people while traveling. PIckup from my place was on time. We made the most out of a cold and rainy day. Last but not least, our host was knowledgeable and thank goodness a good driver.
This was a fun tour in the 4x4!! We saw a bit of the countryside, tasted some local produce, met the tour cats (Alsa and Safari😻😻) and lastly enjoyed an informative tour of the wine farm! Thanks to Miguel and the Team!
Our guide was great - really friendly and knowledgeable. It was everything we expected and the wine tasting went down well!
We had a fantastic afternoon touring the Algarve area and visiting the winery. Being picked up and dropped off at our hotel was a huge bonus. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.
Hugo, our tour guide was amazing! Very informative & personable. The trip into the countryside was great, we saw a lot of local agriculture and learned about some of the industries. The winery tour was far too long, but the wines and charcuterie board were great- once we finally got there.
Tiago was a great guide. He was very friendly and made the tour fun. It was an enjoyable and different trip from the normal.
Really enjoyed the winery tour and tasting, and the safari drive as well! Got the chance to learn about the history of the locally owned winery and their process of making wine, and the wines we tasted were lovely as well. The safari tour was also great, and we got to see some really nice scenery, with the tour guide being very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We were also taken to their own farm, where we got to try some of their homemade treats such as spirits and jams! Would definitely recommend to someone looking to do a more relaxed activity during their time in Albufeira.
The safari guide had some good knowledge and the winery guide had some very good understanding of the process and it was educational
Great trip, very informative driver, great way to see countryside, topped off with nice wines & a very interesting talk from the owner of the vineyard!
The wine tour was absolutely wonderful! The vineyard and the experience were educational and enjoyable. We could have done without the safari and gone straight to the wine tasting. I recommend doing without the safari and just the wine tasting.
Learning about the method of making wine.
The harvest, preparing the grapes for fermentation and blending.
A really good experience.
Thanks
We had a wonderful time at the vineyard. The host was very good and the wines were amazing.
Our guide and driver of the trip Miguel was very good. Overall the trip was great 👍
Maybe we have different expectations but we find it hard to rate the tour excellent.
The safari was interesting enough but felt a little like we were being sold some produce on the way to the winery and the jeeps weren't pretty uncomfortable when sitting in the back on bench seats. Sitting in the back as two tall people we found it pretty hard to see anything when driving. The guide did share a few interesting facts along the way.
The winery is lovely but we seemed to have to wait for every safari tour to arrive before we started the tour and then the tasting. This meant waiting a long time to do the tasting and be hastened out the door as they were running behind schedule. Not sure if the winery experience is always like this as the owners seemed a little overwhelmed, despite being lovely and enthusiastic about their wine.
If you're in Albufeira it might be just as wise to get a taxi direct to the winery
Miguel was amazing! It was a great way to see the country side of Portugal with an informative guide. Much more than just wine. The perfect balance of escape from the city and wine and shots! Don’t forget your swimsuit as the winery has an amazing pool! So much knowledge about the plants around this area! A great tour!!!
Exhilarating jeep safari into the interior from Albufeira learning about the history and nature, with stops at castle ruins and an organic farm. The peace and quiet was surreal. Returning closer to the coast we learnt about wine production and tasted wine with great tapas. Highly recommend
Great fun. Prompt pick up. Great guide. Thank you. Would definitely recommend. Everything perfect but could do with a little more wine at the tasting.
