Be Wary of the Vehicles

The 4x4 was not needed except for a 20 min drive through forested area We had 6 adults plus driver in a car better suited for 4 including driver. Two seats in the trunk area better suited for children. This not really a photogenic tour. The roads make it very difficult fir the driver to stop for pictures. Lotsvof tunnels. I would not recommend this tour.

High sensations and beautiful landscapes!

A great experience! We had fun during the entire day. Excellent for kids and parents! We got lucky to have a great group! Diogo is a fantastic driver that masters his car and explained every step of the journey! We definitely advise it to people who are looking for adrenaline experience and discover beautiful places. I already booked my excursion for next week! Highly recommended!
