Nice tour, seen a lot of the area. Chocolate was delicious, friendly lady, but expected just a little more than standing in front of the display and picking out 3 chocolates.
This was a wonderful tour with a very knowledgeable guide. We learned a lot of Portuguese history, saw beautiful areas of the city , and had amazing chocolate!!! Highly recommend!!!!! Jan Adam
It was a great! It was just the right length and loved stopping for delicious chocolates at the end of the tour! Only thing is it shouldn’t be called a chocolate tour as you aren’t touring a chocolate factory, it’s just a last stop at a chocolate shop.
A safe tour of this lovely Algarvian town with a knowlegable great driver. We saw the town and the salt pan and lots of birds. A trip to an artisan chocolate maker was included in our trip
Wonderful way to see Tavaria and learn about its history and wildlife. Laurie is a safe and knowledgeable diver and guide. Plus you get wonderful tasting of artisan chocolate too. Highly recommend.
Great little quick tour! Our guide was informative and very friendly. The only little disappointment was it’s not a chocolate tour, you just have one stop at a chocolate place (which was super yummy).
The tour exceeded our expectations. Joao was fantastic. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He made the entire experience enjoyable and interesting. We highly recommend taking this trip!
A brilliant experience. Right from booking the communication was excellent. We got picked up from our accomodation and really enjoyed a great tour. We had 2 tuk tuks as we were a group of 7 and it couldn't have gone better. We loved the chocolate shop too. Would recommend to anyone wanting to see the area in a different way.
This was a great tour. You get to see so much and learn all about the history of Tavira. The salt flats were amazing to see, and we were lucky enough to see some Flamingos there too. The chocolate shop is beautiful with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our tour guide Lori was brilliant, she gave us so much information and navigated the tuk tuk around some pretty challenging roads! Great value for money. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Very informative, great views and interesting information. It was a great atmosphere, everyone was really nice and the chocolate was really good
