Additional Information

The Algarve is enchanting with its premium tourist offerings and still maintaining its distinctiveness, which is clearly evident in the indigenous villages and local activities.

The Porches Pottery workshop stands out as one of the finest examples of this art, as it continues to uphold many of the old-fashioned manufacturing techniques. Here, you can observe the artisans handcrafting and painting the pottery.

Perched above the Atlantic, Benagil, a fishing village, boasts a small yet scenic beach, the activities of the village are accompanied by the constant sound of the Atlantic. Moving towards the Carvoeiro resort, we visit Algar Seco, a location famous for its spectacular caves and grottoes sculpted by the coastline over hundreds of years. Take a leisurely walk through the Ferragudo village, meandering through the stone-paved streets and down to the miniature harbor.

The tour concludes with a visit to a winery where you can join a guided tour and sample some of the wines produced locally.

Highly recommended to couples with Dutch tourguide Tom - We've had a wonderfull Landscapes and Winery trip with Tom (Dutch) as our tourguide. With his expertise of the Algarve we had a lot more information which we didn't had otherwise. We highly recommend this trip to couples and for the Dutchies; we hope you can also experiencing this trip accompanied by Tom. 5 out of 5 stars! By far the best trip we've ever experienced. Thank you Tom!!! P.S. Please wait buying your souvenirs at the beach. At Porches Pottery and Cabrita Winery they have everything you would like to take home! 😉

Great day out with lovely people and fabulous places to see, well worth it and great value for money - Great day out. Tour guide Luis was amazing, very knowledgeable and funny. We were picked up on time outside of our hotel in a small minibus (six people on the tour). The places we visited were really great, especially the winery and Algar Seco. We stopped for lunch in a pretty fishing village Ferragudo which was really picturesque with a choice of places to eat and time to wander around. Whilst we were driving Luis explained and stopped at some places to tell us about the culture and history of the areas. Overall a fabulous trip.

Informative Algarve - a fabulous trip. - What a wonderful day exploring the history and landscape. It combined all the places we were trying to visit and wine tasting too, which we’d never done on any of our previous visits. We watched some ladies painting pottery at Porches. Our guide Michael gave us so much information about life in the Algarve. He was brilliant. We visited several places and had time for a visit to the caves at Carvoeiro, and Algar Seco, which is one of the places we wanted to visit on this holiday. We bought our own lunch at Port Arcade. I can highly recommend the food, but we did have to wait over 50 minutes for the dishes from the point of order. This took all of our 1.5 hour stop. The mixed meat kebab was delicious. Prices were very reasonable. The winery - relatively small local vineyard, with an expanding business. The visit was informative and clearly had good wines to sample. White, Rose, and red. Reasonably priced to purchase too. This trip showed the more local and traditional aspects of the Algarve. Perfect for our group of 4 ( Grand parent, parents, and 18 year old). Highly recommend.

Absolutely worth it! - The views were amazing and the winery stop with the wine tasting was fabulous. Our driver Loes was the best and so was the young man at the winery. We highly recommend it!

Good value - This trip was excellent as you were taken to see various views around Algarve, as well as the pottery and wine tasting visits. The 1.5 hr stop for lunch was great with a good choice of a variety of eating places. The vehicle was comfortable and Tom, the guide, very friendly and informative.

Good day out - Got picked up at our hotel. Tour guide was very friendly, and had excellent local knowledge. No smoking sign in the van however the van smelt of cigarettes and my throat felt raspy as a result the entire day and continued to the evening. The AC wasn’t very strong, felt like it would’ve been cooler if the windows were rolled down. The tourgide drove very responsibly and the drive felt very safe. Enjoyed the stops we went on. Only comment would be the wine tour felt extremely rushed.
