Fred gave us an exciting and informative tour around areas of Portugal we would not otherwise have seen. Bits of history, culture and humor. We had both French and English guests on our tour and Fred kept us all informed and interested. Amazing lunch included at a restraining with a spectacular view. Highly recommend the full day tour!

This trip was awesome! Saw some really gorgeous views from some amazing places, the tour guide was funny, kind and very knowledgeable, it’s a hotel pick up and drop off and lunch if you want, lunch was ok, could have been better in my opinion, the chicken was fried bits of bone with hardly any meat, but overall this was a truly awesome trip!

We spent one week in Algarve, we saw beautiful landscapes, seasides, but when looking back at that vacation, this tour is the very first thing that comes in our mind. 100% recommended if you really want to feel inner Algarve, made of small, rural villages, lots of hidden gems and one of the most incredible sunsets ever seen from the top of a mountain. We also had the luck to have Jorge as our guide, simply wonderful.

Absolutely spectacular tour. The tour guide was so funny and he really made the tour as great as it is. You get amazing views and a wonderful time. There are a few stops along the way including a cafe so take cash. This tour was the best part of my holiday - added some photos of the views you get to see
