Amazing - We did a full day safari trip on the 11/04/26 we got picked up straight from our hotel .There was 7 of us in total the drivers name was John he was so welcoming when he picked us up. We went to see lots of different areas around albuferia, John was very informative he was explaining about all the different trees in portugal. We visited a castle called castle of paderne which was amazing! John was great with taking our family pictures all day also. We visited the company's jam / honey tasting experience which was great fun us adults had a taste of the alcohol they produced which was amazing. We had lunch included for the day which was lovely in a restaurant great amount of given and lovely staff. To finish the trip we visited a waterfall which was absolutely amazing. We couldn't thank John enough absolutely amazing guy !

Had a great time learning... - Had a great time learning all about the local area as well as exploring the more inland countryside. Our guide was very knowledgeable and everyone on board seemed to be having a great time. Would like to come back to explore again, perhaps in a different season. The pastel de nata is a must try whilst here! Lunch was plentiful and also plenty to drink- sangria, water or orange.
If the countryside and experiencing the local traditions is your thing, I would definitely recommend this tour.

rude tour guide - I went on the full-day jeep tour, and the tour itself is worthwhile. I was lucky because it rained a lot this winter, and everything was very green. The waterfall had plenty of water, and the views from every angle were beautiful. It's definitely worth it, but you have to be lucky with the guide you get. In my case, the guy was very sarcastic and sometimes rude. He spent the entire tour making passive-aggressive comments and tasteless jokes. I told him I didn't drink alcohol, and he was very disrespectful and even called me a liar. Other travelers on the tour decided not to swim in the waterfall, and he also made mocking and inappropriate comments. He constantly made snide remarks about everything, and it felt like you were out with a troll. In my case, because I'm Spanish, he was always making crude jokes and passive-aggressive comments. It was clear he didn't like Spaniards, but as a tour guide, he should behave more politely. At the end of the tour I started to answer back to his rude comments because I was done. The final straw was when he drove back to my hotel and started yelling aggressively at another driver for obstructing traffic. That's when it became crystal clear the guy was a complete jerk. Being with a rude guide for seven hours can ruin your day, so good luck.
