We had such a great time on the Albufeira wine tour! We’ve done quite a few wine tours over the years, so we weren’t sure how much we’d learn that was actually new to us, but this tour really surprised us.
We visited two small wineries, both with fantastic wine and great snacks. We especially appreciated that it was a small group, which made the whole experience feel much more personal and relaxed.
Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and taught us some really interesting things about winemaking that we had never heard before, despite having been on quite a few wine tours. He also did a great job explaining the Algarve itself, sharing a lot of interesting local history and background along the way. You could tell he genuinely knew and loved the area.
We also stopped for a longer lunch break at a restaurant at the bottom of the hill in Silves, which was honestly perfect after a few hours of wine tasting. It gave us about two hours to relax, eat, and reset before continuing the tour. And, of course, we still managed to order a €2 half-liter of wine with lunch. 😂
Overall, it was a really fun, relaxed, and genuinely interesting day. The combination of the small wineries, great wine, knowledgeable local guide, and small-group experience made this one of the better wine tours we’ve done. Highly recommend it if you’re visiting the Algarve!

Fantastic day out
The guides were fantastic. They were so knowledgable, attentive, friendly and very personable. We would recommend to anyone. Carlos & Jaoa - we enjoyed so much. The wines were great we didn’t feel rushed or anything.

Beware.
I booked this excursion in early July.
Two days before the trip it was cancelled and a new date and time was arranged for yesterday.
After waiting for 45 minutes I contacted Algarving Tours to be told our pickup had been missed!
When I questioned what happens now, I was offered a refund and a free tour at another date ( after what had just happened, I declined. 🤬)
I have not received an apology from this company, and all I received were these messages via WhatsApp ( and I quote ) “ Oh God” and
“ There are no words”
Well I can find the words….
We were looking forward to this trip and, 1st to be cancelled and then rescheduled the night before and then to be overlooked . To add insult to injury not even being given an apology.🤬
I would not recommend Algarving Tours and I will not be booking via Viator again.

Dear Janet
We are truly sorry for letting you down. Having your tour rescheduled and then missing your pickup is completely unacceptable, and we fully understand how frustrating it is to lose precious holiday time.
We want to be clear that this logistical failure was 100% our team’s responsibility and does not reflect on Viator. In years of operating tours, an isolated human error like this is extraordinarily rare for us, but that makes it no less disappointing when it impacts your plans.
While we issued your full refund on the spot and our guide reached out to apologize, we acknowledge that the initial WhatsApp reactions sent in shock ("Oh God," "There are no words") fell short of the calm, professional reassurance you deserved.
We completely respect your decision to decline the complimentary tour. We have addressed this incident internally with our dispatch and communication protocols to ensure this mistake remains an absolute exception. We deeply regret disrupting your holiday in the Algarve.
Sincerely,
The Algarving Tours Team

Okay, interesting day
Great guide , excellent driver. Two nice wineries , the first was better than the second one, the second one was quite dismissive. But the guide made up for it he was excellent

As we were coming from...
As we were coming from Faro, we were picked up by our driver and tour guide, Carlos, at the main bus station. He was right on time, and a wealth of knowledge. Wines were good, as were the Tapas, but Carlos made the tour.

Great combo tour!
This was a great combination tour. We were able to view cork trees and get history on the trees as well as all the info on production of corks. We got to view storks in nests with their young, very cool! Then on to the winery, which was one of the best wine tours we’ve ever done. Guide (João) was very informative, the best guide, very knowledgeable.
