Great walk around Albufeira - Mena was knowledgeable and helpful. The tour was interesting and we were really glad we did it. A better meeting point than 'hang around the busy square and hope the guide finds you' would be a good idea though

First class. - We went on this walking tour on our first day of our holiday, and I am glad that we did because we were taken places that we would probably never have found on our own. Also the tour guide spoke excellent English. We were taken to a small bar/restaurant and tried some food there and that was also good, so much so that we went back there to eat twice while we were there. Recommended.

Great sights, history and food combo - This tour was a great way to see the true old town of Albufeira. We had a great guide who was really informative and knowledgeable on the area. Highly recommend this to groups, couples or solo travellers.

Great guides, information and sights. - We were a group of 11 here for a long weekend. The tour was excellent, we enjoyed the walk, the history and finding places we wouldn’t have know about. Our guide and her mother were lovely and the food and restaurant at the end was perfect. We went back the next day to eat too. Highly recommend this tour.
