Absolutely top class - Great relaxing day trips in the western Algarve with a visit to New Year's Eve, the Monchique Mountains including the highest point of the Algarve. Very delicious lunch with excellent wine. Our guide and driver Tom was absolutely top class and made it an absolute experience with olives, snails and eucalyptus. We can recommend this trip and especially Tom with his easy going nature. Thanks for the great day.😊👍

Poor value - We were disappointed with the trip. The restaurant for lunch (Tosca do Petrol) wasn't very good, a poor value meal. They seemed surprised that someone might be vegetarian. The places we stopped at were okay. We could look at a beach but no time to walk or sit on it. They didn't seem to go to places with somewhere to buy a drink, ice-cream or go to the toilet. We've been on tours in Madeira which were so good for half the cost which probably tainted the review of this trip. The guide was friendly but not suited to the role.
