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.

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.

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!
Margaret_F, Oct 2024
Our guide was great - really friendly and knowledgeable. It was everything we expected and the wine tasting went down well!
Graeme_C, Sep 2024
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.
Michaele_P, Sep 2024
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.
Maryam_D, Jun 2024
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.
Lynn_B, Jun 2024
The safari guide had some good knowledge and the winery guide had some very good understanding of the process and it was educational
Marian_D, May 2024
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!
Alexis_C, Oct 2023
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.
Ray_N, Oct 2023
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 👍
James_W, Sep 2023
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!!!
Susan_A, Jun 2023
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
Tracey_Y, Jun 2023
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.
Deanna_E, Jun 2023
Our driver, Miguel picked us up from our hotel. Really like that the tour provides the option of picking up at hotel. Miguel was friendly, incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. The safari tour was centred around showing us local agriculture and scenery, we did not many animals but that was not an issue for us as we thought the safari tour showed us an authentic side to Albufeira.
There was a mixed French and English group for our vineyard tour, I would have preferred it to be non mixed as it delayed the tour. Nonetheless, the host gave a detailed description throughout the tour. The wines were delicious, very unique and tasty. Unfortunately we had to ask for further information about the wine when it was served, I was expecting the host to tell us about the product in advance.
One disappointing aspect was the packaging of the wine, we purchased four bottle of wine but lost two of them due to the cardboard packaging breaking shortly after we got out of the tour truck. Guess we got the poorly made box out of the bunch, which is a shame as we were not able to enjoy the wine we brought.
Overall, a lovely day out.
Eleanor_C, Mar 2023
What a beautiful day, spent seeing the countryside, the produce, the wine, and enjoyed the lovely people on the jeep as well. Gil, the driver and guide, was amazing. He was so pleasant to be with, and very knowledgeable. It was nothing touristy about this which I liked as well. Everybody had a wonderful day.
Anne_H, Mar 2023
Was a good trip but did not go to the places mentioned! The winery was great and very interesting but no visit to cork trees - not even a mention of one! Instead we got taken to a ruined castle covered up with tarpaulins and to a goji berry farm! We had fun but not quite as described in the advert. Was also an open land river trip - not suitable for those with mobility issues (me included).
Jessica_W, Mar 2023
We enjoyed our mini tour and wine tasting experience. A lovely way to see Portugal and we met some great people as well.
Christine_H, Mar 2023
The off road seeing more of the local agriculture: herbs growing at side of road , almond trees, pomegranate shrubs,. Edgar was very proud of his family vineyard and had a good range of wines to taste.
