Ruben was a great guide. He picked us up at the Lisbon airport and took us on a 4 hour tour of Sintra and Castle of the Moors. Hugo was easy to work with and responds quickly on email. Would recommend this tour and company.

We took the tour on a cloudy day since it was a bit cold for the beach, and it was a great choice. The driver didn't speak much English but we manage to communicate. The Rio Formosa is absolutely stunning. We recommend

My wife and I had a great time with Gabriel! He picked us up from our hotel in Albufeira for our transfer to Lisbon. We stopped for a visit in Evora on the way. We enjoyed Gabriel’s company on the way to Lisbon. He provided us with suggestions in Evora (restaurant, olive oil tasting, sites,...) I would definitely call Gabriel next time I’m in Algarve.
