We saw all the best sites along coast including cape St Vincent Lighthouse, top beaches, Sagres, and good food. Our guide was a great help explaining areas and since he lived in Philly back in the day he spoke great English.

The driver picked us up at our apartment we had a full day saw many sites. He was very congenial and helpful throughout the whole trip. Would highly recommend the driver and the experience. Rate 5 out 5

Canceled the trip on us but we saw them still go on the trip so we must have been overbooked and booted. Do yourself a favor and avoid profit seekers instead of memory makers

Ask for Nunu and John. They are amazing. Amazing experience. Very family-friendly and informative. Always always felt safe and saw some really cool stuff.

The tour was excellent. The guide (Rui) was friendly and professional. He gave the group lots of interesting information about the different sites and villages that we visited. He drove very safely too. The coastal landscape was very rugged and amazingly beautiful. I'm glad I brought an extra jacket because it was windy! Definitely worth the money.

I chose to go on this tour as I have been with South Explorers before and I trusted that it would be well organised. As someone who doesn’t have a great affinity with water, boats, cliffs and caves, I found it very enjoyable. It was a bit tough on my short legs going up and down the steps on the coastal walk but well worth it for the experience and views. Thank you António for another splendid outing.

Love! Love! Love! This was one of my favorite trips so far. Our tour quite was so much fun and took us to all the best places. Monchique was beautiful and the alkaline water was the best discovery. We would absolutely book this tour again and again. 10/10

A fantastic half day tour. Our guide Antonio was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions and gave excellent advice. The itinerary was perfect with great views of the Algarve from it's highest point. The stops at the spa town a d Montique were special. We would highly recommend this tour and this company.

Great day trip with our wonderful Guide Antonio from Southern Explorers. A special visit to a spa town and to Montique. The views from the highest point on the Algarve was spectacular. You could see from Faro to Cape St. Vincente.

Very enjoyable trip, very relaxed with plenty to see, and a decent amount of time to explore. Antonio is very knowledgeable and considerate, helping us avoid busy times for lunch, and advising on good eating spots. We felt we saw and experienced a range of inland attractions at the Algarve, with good company, and finished with good wines. A very pleasant day out.

Excellent trip. Very relaxed, comfortable minibus. Antonia is very knowledgeable and friendly. The timings were very good, and we missed the lunchtime crowd. Gret to see other villages and inland scenery.

Very good tour. Recommended. The easiest way to go to Sagres Fortress and Cape St Vincent. Sagress Fortress is beautiful and historical, while Cape St Vincent a bit dissappinting because the lighthouse is not clearly visible, it is behind a building. Antonio gave us a bonus by visiting a beautiful cliff on a beaten track.

Brother, sisters and I took a day (afternoon)-trip from Lagos and it was truly lovely. If you are the type that prefers to spend time outside, yet still like castles, this is a trip for you. The people in the town are super friendly. If you are lucky(as we were), you will look up and see entire walls of stork nests (seriously!). The only negative I can say is that there is a lot of dog poop in the streets. (That seems to be a problem in a lot of Portugal and perhaps education on how the bacteria ends up in the water table when it rains might help the situation.).

Antonio is an excellent guide, friendly and with a wealth of information on all aspects of the area. The tour itself is well paced, giving you just enough time at each location to not feel rushed, while also not feeling like you have seen too little. The sights are amazing, including both wonderful historical sites and the area's natural beauty. I would absolutely recommend this tour specifically, but also any of Antonio's tours as he is a fantastic and personable guide.

Our group of seven , all in our 60,s had a fantastic day touring with Antonio to the west coast of the Algarve. Antonio showed us places we would never have found on our own and provided a detailed, fun, informative day tailored to our pace and interests. He had answers to all of our Portugal questions and his answers showed the pride he felt in doing what he did for a living! Our group probably took about 300 pictures of some of the most amazing landscapes and beaches. A totally different vibe around each corner. Amazing Day! Highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a more natural and authentic view of the Algarve. Thank you Antonio! Looking forward to our drive with you to Tavira and Seville next week!😀
