Guided off-road buggy adventure from Almancil through almond groves and Algibre riverside to Cerro de Cabeço de Câmara with safety gear.
“We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hr buggy drive. Lots of amazing views. We stopped for several breaks for water which was great. One thing that we hadn’t appreciated was that there was some driving on actual roads, something to consider if you’re not confident at driving on the right. Our guide was very nice and friendly. Definitely wear old clothes as you get very dusty and it’s worth taking a snood or buying one to cover your mouth. You are provided with protective goggles. Definitely a nice way to spend a few hours.”
