Privétour van een hele dag aan de kust van de Algarve
Beschrijving
Gebouwd op de top van een klif, de kapel van Sra. Bij Da Rocha kunt u de prachtige kust en rotsformaties bewonderen. In westelijke richting wordt u voorgesteld aan het dorp Ferragudo, een traditioneel vissersdorp dat uitkijkt over de monding van Portimão. Nadat u de rivier de Arade bent overgestoken via de oude brug, krijgt u de gelegenheid om vanaf de top van het uitkijkpunt Fort van Santa Catarina, de rivier, de monding van de rivier en het lange Praia da Rocha te overdenken. Aangekomen in de charmante stad Lagos zal een optionele boottocht van een uur u verbazen terwijl het onze toeristen naar de grotten en rotsformaties van Ponta da Piedade brengt. Een must-do-ervaring. Het historische centrum heeft nog steeds zijn karakteristieke karakter, met geplaveide straatjes, authentieke restaurants en een ontspannen en gastvrije sfeer. Een fascinerende en onvergetelijke tocht langs de kust. Een geweldige ervaring om nooit te vergeten.

Reisroute
Op het prachtige voorgebergte van Senhora da Rocha staat de kapel van Senhora da Rocha. Volgens historische bronnen werd de kapel omringd door een oud fort (15e eeuw), dat de hele kust tussen Faro en Lagos domineerde en de bevolking en de kust beschermde, maar het fort werd verwoest tijdens de aardbeving van 1755.
Loop langs de geplaveide straatjes van dit pittoreske dorpje. U krijgt de gelegenheid om de heuvel op te gaan naar het uitkijkpunt van de hoofdkerk van Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van de Conceptie (prachtig uitzicht voor foto's van de stad Portimão en de rivier de Arade). Afdaling naar Angrinha Beach door Praia Grande
We gaan verder naar Praia da Rocha en bezoeken het fort van Santa Catarina om de rivier de Arade, de monding en het beroemde strand van Praia da Rocha te bewonderen. Uitstekende tijd om te "stoppen" en wat te drinken voordat je naar Lagos gaat.

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

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!!!

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!

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
