          Micheal was amazing
          The trip was out of this world, would Deffineltey recommend. Would like to thank Michael, he talked us through everything in the beautiful area and gave the tour 100%. Deserves a raise in my opinion. The scenery was out of this world and Deffineltey worth paying for.

          Lovely pottery & caves
          We had an enjoyable day out, loved the caves & and pottery !!! but we thought the winery tour- was a bit disappointing. Scenery & meeting a few people along the way. Had a lovely lunch at Salga / Bairil - Praça D. Lenor- Ferragudo. They went out their way to help you. Excellent service & food.

          Once in a lifetime experience with Diogo and Lorenzo
          We went on the rib with Diogo and Lorenzo who were absolutely amazing tour guides, very engaging and made the trip so much fun! We went through the caves and got to explore so much of the culture with the fishermen and the interactions between the guides and locals was just so incredible to see. Due to the season, we were unable to see the dolphins but regardless, I had the most amazing time. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a boat tour!

          Definitely recommend this tour as the boat is small so the tour is more personal and it can maneuver in the small caves. Amazing!

          Great day out with Michael and Lewis our drivers for today. The jeep safari was fantastic, the driver was knowledgeable, curtious and great at his job. Best experience off the holiday so far. Food stop was great, F1 circuit stop of was a added bonus. Five stars all the way.

          Benagil magical grotto cruise
          my wife and I took the caves tour by Rib yesterday (Tue 22/10). We were picked up from.our hotel and delivered to Portimao marina. Our captain (Lorenzo) and tour guide (Diego, sorry not 100% sure on this name) brought us on a fun 2hr tour of all the caves and had a bit of fun along the way. We also got up and close with a pod of bottlenose dolphins. Great tour, good fun. well worth the money. Thanks guys!!

        Day where we had an appointment with nature in various forms. Richness of landscapes, colors, flavors. Our guide Vasco was keen to help us discover this region with humor and good humor. We have had many explanations, historical, geographical and economic. A day that remains special in our stay.

        Was a very nice and versatile tour where we were able to take many beautiful pictures and got insights about the culture, nature, economy, geography etc.
        Food was very delicious and Vasko our driver was an excellent guide. He said something almost continuously. Picked various leaves and herbs and made us smell and touch. He also answered any questions and was generally very friendly.
        Was a long tour about 10 hours but you also saw most of the Algarve with one day.

        This is a great tour especially if you get TOM TOM to drive! He's knowledgable and funny and knows his way around. Took us for lunch at a locals restaurant, stopped at amazing cliffs over the ocean, sampled fire water, learned about the eucalyptus trees and their oils and so much more. Tom Tom made it so much fun.

        Beautiful couple getaway accompanied by our Multilingual Guide Carlos: French, Spanish, English.
        A very nice person.
        Thanks to his knowledge of his region, we discovered the jewels of the Algarve:
        The medieval town of Silves, Monchique hills with hot springs, citrus orchards, eucalyptus and cork oak forests, visit to a distillery making the famous medronho.
        At noon lunch based on local products.
        And in the afternoon head to the west coast and visit the lighthouse of Cabo de Sao Vicente.
        This beautiful day with our Guide allowed us to better know the landscapes and customs of the Algarve.
        We recommend this wonderful excursion with Portitours.

        My boyfriend and I had an amazing day seeing many beautiful places in Algarve. Choosing this type of trip we had many local experiences that we would probably not have gotten if we chose to go with a bigger tourist bus.

        Vasco was our guide and driver of the day and did such a great job explaining and telling us about Portuguese culture and history. He was very entertaining the whole day.

        We definitely recommend going on this day trip.

        We booked the Algarve a la carte tour through the Cerro mar garden Hotel representative in Albufeira.
        Our tour guide was Tom. He was absolutely amazing! His knowledge of the various sites and destinations was very impressive. As we drove from one town/site to the other, Tom would give us in-depth details ( historical, cultural, geographical) and that’s what made the tour so interesting and fun. Tom’s good sense of humour was an added plus to the whole tour.
        I must admit that standing near the enormous cliffs at Cape st. Vincent and Sagres was the highlight of our tour.

        We had the most amazing trip with Vasco! He was so knowledgeable and shared so many insights as well as jokes. A pleasure to have him as our guide. Also highly recommend the tour itself. Rich in landscape, culture and local life. The beaches were our favourite. The lunch was also fantastic and more than we expected. If you want to have a high quality experience in a comfortable car with a small group don't hesitate to book this tour.

        A magnificent guide, great Pro and who guided us in a very pleasant way, spectacular landscapes. Pretty entertaining. The stops in each place so short that we barely had time to take four pictures, no walks, no souvenirs, not a bottle of water we could buy. The longest stop in a distillery and manufactures honey and tiny family pollen, with a brief explanation , tasting and possible Shopping. Very good but scarce food. If you weren't ready, you ran out of dishes. It was great but we wouldn't repeat. In general Portitours stresses tourists in such a hurry. You do not enjoy or see spaces or places with tranquility.
