Amazing, a must do when in Faro. Or guide was friendly and so knowledgeable, we had a fantastic time.
Great tour around Faro taking in the old town, new parts of the city and a trip out to the beach. Damian was an excellent guide who was very knowledgable and helpful. We did this tour on our first morning and it really helped us plan what we wanted to do for the rest of our days in Faro. I would definitely recommend this trip.
Ended two tuk tuks for a family of 5 and got picked up from (and dropped off at) our accommodation Knowledgeable and helpful guide too. We really enjoyed it
Sophia made our introduction to Faro very informative and joyful all at the same time .It was by a long mile the best guided experience we ‘ve had .After it we are able to navigate ourselves around successfully .She opened the door of Faro and it’s amazing history for us and already enhanced our experience.It ‘s a great thing to do on first arriving . .Thank you very much Sophia .
Ernesto showed us around both old and new Faro and then to the beach. He is very well informed and kind. He has lived here his whole life so knew many people we saw on our ride through. A nice fellow Thank you!
I enjoyed the view of the city and the beach. Sofia was such a sweet person. She answered to my questions when I asked her. I liked being the only one on the Tuk Tuk. Thanks Sofia!
We had Sofia as our driver and she was great. It was a perfect mixture of sightseeing and a pleasant visit to the beach. We had our 11-year-old and seven-year-old daughters with us and they loved it too. It also felt very safe and that she was a very good driver.
Guide was excellent and spoke loudly enough for us to hear behind him. We were late but he worked it all in. He had helpful recommendations for evening dinner.
Great experience whizzing around the area in the tuk tuk. Mauro, our guide was very knowledgeable and a great driver. Would definitely recommend.
Guide was on time to pick up. After consultation we skipped beach. Nice tour, nice guide. However, our guide could have told us a bit more about the sights.
