Visite privée d'une journée sur la côte de l'Algarve
Description
Construit au sommet d'une falaise, la chapelle de Sra. Da Rocha vous permet d'admirer la magnifique côte et les formations rocheuses. En direction de l'ouest, vous serez présenté au village de Ferragudo, un village de pêcheurs traditionnel qui surplombe l'estuaire de Portimão. Après avoir traversé la rivière Arade à travers le vieux pont, vous aurez l'occasion de contempler du haut du point de vue du fort de Santa Catarina, la rivière, l'embouchure de la rivière et la longue Praia da Rocha. En arrivant dans la charmante ville de Lagos, une excursion facultative d'une heure en bateau vous étonnera car elle emmène nos touristes dans les grottes et les formations rocheuses de Ponta da Piedade. Une expérience incontournable. Le centre historique conserve son caractère distinctif, avec des rues pavées, des restaurants authentiques et une atmosphère détendue et accueillante. Un circuit fascinant et inoubliable le long de la côte. Une expérience incroyable à retenir.

Itinéraire
Sur le magnifique promontoire de Senhora da Rocha, il y a la chapelle de Senhora da Rocha. Selon des sources historiques, la chapelle était entourée d'une ancienne forteresse (XVe siècle), qui dominait toute la côte entre Faro et Lagos, et protégeait les populations et la côte mais la forteresse fut détruite lors du tremblement de terre de 1755.
Promenez-vous dans les rues pavées de ce village pittoresque. Vous aurez l'occasion de monter sur la colline jusqu'au point de vue de l'église principale de Notre-Dame de la Conception (vue magnifique pour les photos de la ville de Portimão et de la rivière Arade). Descente vers la plage d'Angrinha par Praia Grande
En continuant jusqu'à Praia da Rocha, nous visiterons le fort de Santa Catarina pour admirer la rivière Arade, son embouchure et la célèbre plage de Praia da Rocha. Excellent moment pour «s'arrêter» et prendre un verre avant de se rendre à Lagos.

We booked a full-day coast tour of the Algarve with Johnny and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He was a fantastic guide — thoughtful, prepared, and made sure we had everything we needed along the way, including plenty of water. What really stood out was his deep knowledge of the region; he clearly knew the history and stories behind every stop, which made the whole day so much richer than just sightseeing. Highly recommend Johnny if you want a tour guide who genuinely cares about giving you a great experience. Would book with him again in a heartbeat!
Johnny was the best guide ever!! So caring and showing us the best places to go to. We enjoyed a lot and recommend doing this tour with this marvelous guide. Thank you!!
5 stars I have travelled to my fair share of places around the world and have been on many tours, and I can confidently say that Johnny was among the absolute best. Johnny was very polite, accommodating, and genuinely kind. He put a lot of thought into the locations which he brought us to and was very knowledgeable about both their history and unique geographical features. I would 100% book Johnny's services again; it being one of the highlights of my trip.

Great tour of the Algarve’s coast including a small boat tour of the Bengil caves which entered all the caves . Lunch was exceptional as were the views from the cliffs. Johnny made the day comfortable informative but he was not intrusive and flexible with our group

Johnny was phenomenal!! Hands down one of the best private guides we’ve ever had. His knowledge and love for the region is infectious. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him and highly recommend his services.
Dear Cheryl, Thank you so much for your wonderful words! It was truly a pleasure spending the day with you and Mr Jon. I'm so happy you enjoyed exploring the region with me, and your kind feedback means a lot. Thank you for your recommendation. I hope to welcome you back for another adventure someday! All the Best!!! Warm regards, Johnny
We spent a lovely day with Johnny and saw the lovely sights that the Algarve coast had to offer. As soon as Johnny picked us up he said that the day was "about us" and that he would tailor the day around us. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the history of the region and gave the impression that he is passionate about the subject and proud of his country. We very much enjoyed walking around Lagos with Johnny and will definitely go back and spend more time there in the future and would also like to explore the caves in that part of the coast and Johnny has offered to help us book that in the future. All in all we had a lovely day and feel that we have found a new friend.
Dear Julie, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for your kind words. It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and Mr Mike and I'm so happy you enjoyed discovering the Algarve with me. I am especially glad that Lagos left such a great impression. I look forward to helping you explore the caves there on your next visit! Until then, thank you again, and I hope our paths cross again soon. Wishing you all the very best! Warm regards, Johnny
Johnny was the best private tour guide we had during our 2-week Portugal adventure. He took us through the Algarve and showed us so many beautiful hidden spots and hidden gems we never would have found on our own. He took amazing care of my family the whole day and made everything feel easy, comfortable, and special. This was easily the best tour of our entire trip. Highly recommend Johnny to anyone visiting Portugal!
Mr Siam, Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking your precious time to write your review. It was an absolute pleasure spending the day with you and your wonderful family. I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed discovering some of the hidden gems of the Algarve and that the experience felt more like exploring with a friend. Creating a tour that matches each family's interests and pace is something I truly enjoy, so it means a lot to know that it made your day special. Reviews like yours remind me why I love what I do. Thank you again for choosing me as your guide. Wishing you all the very best Johnny
