THE ALGARVE · JEEP SAFARIS
Twenty minutes inland the coast disappears and the Algarve turns into cork oak, orange groves and white villages on dirt roads. These 15 jeep days differ on where they go, how much of it is off tarmac and whether lunch and a medronho tasting are included.

90-minute off-road quad tour in Algarve from Albufeira. Ride 300cc ATVs on gravel, rocky trails, and scenic stops near Paderne Castle.
“It was an incredible experience! Super fun, lovely track that wasn’t too difficult for beginners :). Just bear in mind, swapping drivers on a 2 person quad is €10 extra and there is a €100 deposit for the bike in case of damages. However this was returned quickly after the activity! 10/10, would absolutely do again!!”

I definetly recommend if you have time do this go !!!!”
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.”

“I waited for 1 hour and trying to contact the company with no help on the web chat. No communication from company to confirm time of pick up. They said there will be a email to confirm time for pick up which I have never received. I was panic and no one manage to give me an answer. The driver arrives after 1 hour and he told me he is late but the pick up time was 2pm which was not communicated to me. The driver was very lovely and. Knowledgeable about the places. He is very kind helpful friendly and patience. Had a good time and it was an…”
From Albufeira, ride a 4x4 off-road through cork forests and hills, then taste Algarve wines at a winery with local bites.
“The tour was interesting and we tasted some new delicious honeys and Piri Piri. The winery was a new experience for us although the wines were not our favourites. Now comes the cherry on top: Our tour guide named Fred was very friendly, open and heartwearming. The tour with him was the best thing. With his warm and funny manner he brightened up our trip. Thank you and greetings from the German people!”

“The most underrated thing you can do in southern Portugal. Witnessed with my own eyes, the sun dip below the ocean from the “end of the world”. Although instead of being around dozens if not hundreds of other people. I spent it with less than 10 people. All enjoying it in their own right. Couples getting close, friends sitting together, or me sipping some wine, listening to my favorite tunes taking it all in. That’s just a taste of what this tour has to offer. Sandro was a fun guide to explore places you’d never think you’d see in your entire life. In short. Well worth the money and time.”

1.5-hour Albufeira buggy adventure through Algarve countryside, with a guided Paderne castle stop and dust-muddy off-road fun.
“We had a fantastic time on our tour. I read some of the previous comments about the manager and guides, but that is totally not true. They do give you detailed safety information to keep you and the equipment safe and warn you that you must follow their rules. Pretty common sense. Francisco the manager and all of our guides were fun, while being safety oriented. We did a LOT of off-roading in some tough terrain. Don't skip this.”
