Summary: Our half-day Jeep safari tour with Rui (Roy) was absolutely incredible! He was knowledgeable, entertaining, and full of fun and adventure. Rui made the experience come alive with his great humor and stories — and he even took amazing photos of us along the way! We explored parts of the Algarve we never would have seen on our own — endless orange groves, winding mountain roads, charming villages, and historic churches hundreds of years old. We visited a local Goji farm where we tasted delicious honey, jams, olive oils, and homemade teas. We even stopped for a traditional Portuguese coffee and pastry break! This tour was the perfect mix of culture, nature, and adventure. Rui’s passion for the region and his warm personality made the day truly special. We highly recommend this half-day safari to anyone wanting to see the authentic beauty and hidden gems of the Algarve
