Great trip - Highly recommended - Excellent trip from the harbour area to the highest point of Faro and a wealth of history in between. We had a very enjoyable and informative tour through the old and new and really get a sense of the city. This is not just a drive around tour - there a also a few stops were João shows specific aspects of history - of which he has a clear passion for, and also a superb view to "top" it off [ you'll know when you go]. Many thanks!

Great way to see Faro and extremely informative - We had the most amazing tuk-tuk city tour of Faro with João. He has incredible knowledge of Faro and history (I’d say he was passionate about it and it showed) and we had some great conversations. We thought it was great value for money and definitely our highlight in Faro. João was very personable with great knowledge and spoke impeccable English.

Faro Tuk-Tuk Tour Best Little Tour Ever!! - We booked a Tuk-Tuk sightseeing tour of Faro in order that we had an idea of the town itself, its history and places we should look to visit during our stay. It proved to be one of the best tours we have taken. Our local guide John/Joao was well presented, extremely friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and passionate about his town, its peoples, and the region. He was fluent in many languages, had particularly good customer service skills and communicated fluently and enthusiastically. The 2 seater Tuk-Tuk itself was clean, tidy and quite quiet. Our guide was easily heard at all times. As most of the streets in Faro are cobbled then it did bounce a bit, but it was never uncomfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour and our guide, Joao, and would highly recommend taking this tour.
