Wonderful day in Algarve, despite the weather! - This trip almost didn't happen because of the crazy weather that has befallen Portugal this March. The night before, it sounded like a hurricane was ravaging Lisbon! Thankfully, by the morning, things looked up, and our driver Enam decided to proceed with the tour. He was punctual and communicative. We are staying in a hotel in Lisbon with no access to a functional street, so we had to make special arrangements for a meeting point. The drive to Algarve was very pleasant. Myself and our driver had some nice conversation along the way. He was very accommodating to our needs, stopping twice at our request. Once we got to Algarve, we were able to see the Benagil rocks and caves. The ocean was very agitated, therefore we could not do the boat tour inside the cave. Same with the gorilla cave. We were still able to see the Marinha beach and the cave from above. I imagine during good weather, the water must be spectacular and the beaches wonderful to enjoy. The beaches are gorgeous, a nice soft camel color with very smooth sand. Our driver brought us to a fabulous local restaurant for lunch. The restaurant is called Monte do Mar. It's over 100 yrs old and located in Carvoeiro. We enjoyed a delicious meal and fantastic service by Bernardo. We ordered their signature dish - seafood cataplana, a medley of seafood in the most delicious red sauce. Yum! Our driver was very kind and generous to treat us to essentially half our bill, something he didn't have to do, as it was not included in the trip. Afterwards, we walked around the town of Carvoeiro, found a great pastry shop and did a little shopping. Our driver was going to take us to Lagos, but the weather turned bad in a matter of minutes and we had to head back to Lisbon instead to beat the storm. It was a lovely day, even though we did not get to go inside the caves. Personally, I wasn't going to let this put a damper on our day. We still had a great time and we had the best driver/ guide in Enam! Highly recommend!

Very accomodating and fair - Eman was very friendly and accomodating for all ages (my mother 70 - wasn’t up to walking along the cliff as no guard rails so he provided alternative solutions). Whilst I feel I did miss out, I feel he accomodate us so well. He is and was a blessing. I highly recommend the amazing Portuguese food in the blue and white restaurant (tell him the one he asked for spicy peri peri chicken). It was absolutely amazing and restored faith in Portuguese food, NOTHING could taste bad there!!
