Sightseeing, History and Wine tasting. - Great Day out, office kept us up to date with pick up time right up to arrival which was on time.
Margarida, our Driver and Guide was absolutely superb. Fantastic knowledge, great driver and a lovely person.
Never been on this kind of trip before and have been to Lagos several times but if all are as professional and interesting and you're lucky enough to have someone like Margarida to be your leader then what a fantastic day and company.

Best tour by far - Love! Love! Love! This was one of my favorite trips so far. Our tour quite was so much fun and took us to all the best places. Monchique was beautiful and the alkaline water was the best discovery. We would absolutely book this tour again and again. 10/10

Great experience! - My husband and I had the best day on this tour and saw parts of the Algarve region we never would have been able to find on our own. Our guide, Antonio, was extremely knowledgeable of all the sites we visited and answered any questions the group had. I also appreciated that the tour group was kept small so it didn’t feel like you were lost in a big crowd. We would recommend this tour to anyone looking to learn more about Portugal’s history and taste good wine!

Zero - Canceled the trip on us but we saw them still go on the trip so we must have been overbooked and booted.
Do yourself a favor and avoid profit seekers instead of memory makers
