Little to see. Nothing spectacular. As much for Silves (visit to a castle that is more of a fortress) as for Monchique (to see a water spring)

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations.
Silves and Monchique offer a different experience from the more spectacular coastal sights of the Algarve. The tour is designed to combine the history and heritage of Silves with the landscapes, local culture and mountain atmosphere of Monchique, including a visit to the natural spring.
We understand that these places may not appeal to everyone in the same way, but we appreciate your feedback as it helps us continue improving the experience we offer.
Thank you for choosing South Explorers.

Great day in Algarve
Our goal was to get a feel of the countryside in the Algarve and this tour was really good. Our tour guide Rui was awesome, great communication from the company, and picked us up at our hotel in Lagos. The small towns of Monchique and Silves were awesome. His recommendation for lunch was perfect and the day ended at the winery. Great tour!

After a slight confusion...
After a slight confusion with pickup location all worked out and Tour guide Filipe was great! He is very knowledgeable and kept us informed of every aspect of the unique itinerary! We had a small group of 4 which was even better!
If you have interest in seeing more of Portugal than they typical tourist areas, this tour is great and Filipe is your guy!

Excellent day to see the history and the geography of the Algarve
We had a fabulous day. Starting with Silves in the morning. A beautiful historic area. Followed by Monchique, where we visited Caldes and tasted the famous spring water direct from the mountain. Foia for views of the whole Algarve and an authentic artisan craft location. Our guide recommended a place in Monchique for a delicious lunch. We finished with a stop at a stunning vineyard. It was a perfect day which was a good balance of plenty to do and enough time to take it all in. Filipe our guide was very knowledgeable on the history, geography, the diversity of the plants and architecture. We have been coming to the Algarve for many years but still learnt a lot. Would highly recommend!

Adventures in Silves and Monchique
Everyone in my group had a wonderful time. Rui, our guide and driver, had grown up in Monchique, and had a great deal to share about the the beautiful village. Rui was a lot of of fun, never a dull moment as we traversed our way through Silves, Monchique, and the winery. This is a small group tour that anyone who could walk would be able to do.

Great tour with excellent guide
My husband and I joined this tour with guide Filipe. He was genuine, knowledgeable and passionate about the areas we visited and its history. He was attentive and generous with his response to questions and explanations of everything we were seeing. A long but wonderful day that I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to explore this incredible part of the Algarve. Obrigado Filipe!

Exceeded our expectations!
Our tour of Silves and Monchique was excellent. Felipe knew absolutely everything about the towns and sites we visited, sharing information along the way and during our tours - very involved yet giving us plenty of time to explore and shop on our own. When I mentioned that I loved cork Portuguese handbags, he made sure that we examined the cork trees and bark that we saw during the tour and found cork stores for me to look into. He gave us two cafe recommendations, and then recommended menu items in the wonderful little Monchique cafe that we chose (the Iberian black pig was indeed tasty). The wine tasting at the end of the tour was the perfect end to a perfect day!
