super cool buggy tour
What an experience. Top material and an insane route, right through the hills. Paths and roads steeper than 30%. A bit much for these top buggies. The return trip was a bit too easy (lots of asphalt) but definitely worth the effort and money. After 3 hours of driving without power steering, your shoulders naturally fall off. Highly recommended.

Explore the Algarve Countryside – Half Day Jeep Safari Trip
Phil_D, Sep 2026
Amazing experience.
We were messaged and collected from near our Hotel all very well organised even sent a photo of the bus stop we were being collected at. John arrived in the Jeep and straight away started to share history make jokes etc what a great guy. Our Jeep was not crowded and it felt very relaxed. We saw other companies with people jammed in like sardines so we felt lucky that were with this company. The tour and experiences along the way were excellent. Got to swim in the spring and see the waterfall and even a turtle swimming with us. Everything was superb and it gave us a lovely opportunity to experience Portuguese life. Special thanks to our driver John whose personality and humour added a huge bonus to our trip.

Fantastic afternoon on the water
This is honestly one of the best wee boat trips we have done. Fantastic value for money! 4 hours including a 90 minute lunch break on Culatra and then a 40 minute break on Farol. The guide was lovely, very knowledgeable and clearly cared about his heritage and the importance of the delicate eco balance of Rio Formosa. Highly recommend this if you fancy a wee afternoon out on the water.
