Johnny Peter makes this worth it. So proud of Portugal! Loved it - Johnny Peter is the nicest true guide ever. Did a jeep safari with him too which was my favourite. The western bus tour was lovely as we were lucky to have just three others with us. Johnny's timing is impeccable. If you've never been to these places before it's well worth going on this trip and, if you want some extra fun, do the jeep safari too. Finally, after three tries i got to swim in Altea on the safari. But this trip is more sedate. Lunch is not free but is very filling and you won't go hungry or thirsty!

Western Algarve guided roadtrip - Our driver/tour guide, Johnny, is lovely, friendly and full of local knowledge. He was a pleasure to deal with and was also very helpful and funny too. Would highly recommend. ☆☆☆☆☆ very good value for money for an 8+ hours guided roadtrip.

West Algarve in a day! - Joâo (Jonny) was a great tour guide. His knowledge combined with his sense of humour made the trip enjoyable! Seeing so many different places in such a short time is possible! From the views from Monchique to the most southwestern point of Europe the trip had something for everyone!

Great day exploring the Algarves. - It was a great day, very good experience. We really enjoyed that its a smaller vehicle and smaller tour group. The travel between locations/stop weren't very long, so it didn't feel like we were traveling all day. Our tour guide was great. Thank you.

Fun Day in Western Algarve - Johnny was a fabulous guide! He provided lots of history and information about the places we visited and had a good sense of humor. He made the day very informative and enjoyable! The only thing I didn’t like was we were taken to one specific restaurant where we could buy lunch from a limited menu or go hungry as there were no other options available where we were. The lunch was just ok and overpriced for what we got.

Family Western Algarve day tour in January - Bus was late at agreed pick up area and it was raining .we 3 were last on minibus so had to take the rear seats (which had no side windows)so it was a bumpy ride .The sites we visited were excellent and driver very informative and humorous on all aspects of the Algarve .No one on the tour had the lunch so we didn’t stop at that area instead we had longer in Silves which was better I think ,as we found a lovely cafe on a side street.We had 3 drinks and 3 squid chips and egg and a pastry for €29 .which was a lot more economical than the offered €22 per head lunch by the tour company.All in all a good day out ,we were just unlucky in our seat allocation but a great day nonetheless the less and one of the cheaper tours in the Algarve.Would recommend

Disappointed - Guide was very entertaining. Unfortunately I booked western experience and was placed on Historical tour. As well, didn’t spend any time in Monchique. Instead we stopped at a roadside diner for an hour for a three course meal. The restaurant next door was excellent. But no time spent in one of the prettiest towns. Plenty of time in Silves. Too much driving. Would not recommend.
