This was a really nice tour on the west coast. We get ti see different places in one day and had a short dip at the beach. Rui was great and funny guy. He really has a lot of energy and lots of interesting stories. We enjoyed the tour and his company. Thanks!

Great day on the Atlantic coast, quite a few stops in a bit less than 8 hours. Incredible viewpoints! Time at the beach was also nice, and apparently time better spent than waiting for some mediocre food from a food truck (and only option at the spot foreseen for lunch). Better to pack a snack and eat after coming back to Lagos!

Our tour was great were able to skip another castle and go to our guides special. Spot over looking beaches and coast lines

Absolutely beautiful! Friendly and knowledgeable guide, comfortable ride, stunning locations. I joined the tour as a solo traveler and having a small group for the tour made it very easy to make friends with the other participants. The tour guide also made sure to offer to take photos, so that I didn't end up with just selfies. 100% recommend.
Tips: some of the locations are VERY windy! Definitely bring a windbreaker or jumper. Wear comfy shoes, as some locations have stairs (see photos). You do not have to go up or down these stairs though to be able to enjoy the view.

Rui was prompt, entertaining, patient and knowledgeable. The landscapes that we saw were incredible. The interactive fort museum was a highlight. Rui provided details about the agriculture of the region. It was a delightful day. Highly recommend this trip and guide.

Although Rui himself was nice enough, mostly we were driven to 6 or 8 stops and simply told that we could take pictures or "do whatever we want" at each stop. The van was marginal, with a broken door and seat. Our BIGGEST issue was the lunch stop. The weather was poor (obviously not the tour company's fault) and we were left for an hour on a beach in the driving rain! There was a SINGLE snack shack open which served hamburgers and sandwiches. To be eaten outside at picnic tables. IT WAS ABYSMAL, especially when there were several decent restaurants at the stop before and after! Your photos of previous guests enjoying lunch DID NOT represent the pitiful place you subjected us to!
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Hello Brian,
I'm sorry that you feel that about your experience with us.
The weather on the day you did the Tour was bad and we informed you about that conditions the day before. We gave you the option to cancel and refund you. This Tour is a sightseeing Tour where we go to different locations to see beaches and Cliffs in the National Park of the Algarve West Coast. Usually our guests like to enjoy time in each Beach to take pictures, relax on the beach or a little walk along the water. When you did the Tour with the rain you didn't had that opportunity.
About the Van - what you mentioned it's not true at all. No Broken Door or Seat, really don't know why you saying that when is not real. It's something that we really take care is our vans.
About Lunch - Rui gave you option to have lunch in a different location and the group decided to have lunch on that location. You booked a small group Tour, not a Private Tour. It's where most of the time we have the break for food. Some people pack there lunch and on the beach there is more than one snack bar with more than sandwiches.
I'm sorry that you had a day with bad weather for the Tour but that doesn't give you the right to do this review with lies.
Wish you the best.
António

We had a great day seeing different beaches and other sights in the Algarve. Seeing some of the roads made me really glad I didn't try to drive them myself, the tour made it much more relaxing.

Antonio was a excellent guide. I am a widow travelling on my own and the day of my tour I was happy to find out there were 2 couples joining the tour that were also from Canada. A fun day and Antonio let us walk the many beautiful beaches we visited and we all enjoyed lunch at a restaurant on a cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. Then moved on to more amazing places to see.
It was a wonderful tour.
Thanks Antonio!

Amazing tour!! Would highly recommend for anyone with just a few days in Lagos. Gabriel was a phenomenal tour guide. He arrived on time to pick me up from my hotel ( early, actually ) , was very energetic and informative about the locations we visited and their history, and even offered to take pics for me since I was travelling solo! The spots we stopped at were stunning. Pics don’t do it justice. We didn’t have the best weather, it was a bit of a gloomy day but that almost made it better. We had a beautiful lunch by the cliff side and overall it was a fantastic day. Would highly recommend.

Antonio is a great host, and made it so easy to get around the coastal area and learn about the country. We appreciated being on a small group tour, the van only holds 8 passengers. This made it easier to get into places and areas that the large tour buses cannot. I highly recommend this informative tour. It was well-paced and thoroughly enjoyable.

Antonio is an excellent guide with a lovely, easy manner. He is also very professional, providing a wealth of information without being overwhelming. The tour was well paced with a good mix of historical sites and stunning scenery. We thoroughly enjoyed our day out.

Anthony is one of the best tour guides we've ever met. His tour was full of love for his country. We didn’t have any questions Anthony couldn’t answer. The tour was just as excellent as it is possible. If you want to know the history and see the South-West Coast beauty, we strongly recommend the tour with Anthony.

I had a great time at the west coast, I've seen so many beautiful beaches, the end of the world and the last Bratwurst before America. António was a great guide telling me all things I liked to know about Portugal and the Algarve. So if you want a great tour without renting a car and bothering with driving and only enjoying the nature I recommend you this tour.Thanks for the great time António.
