A great tour of the Algarve! - Our group actually spent 3 days with Antonio - we saw amazing cliffs, small villages, he arranged a boat tour of the caves, day trip to Silves Castle & local wineries, and a day trip/ transfer to Evora. He was friendly and knowledgeable. He rearranged activities depending on the weather. He arranged dinner reservations for us when we couldn’t get through to the restaurant. An overall great experience! Don’t hesitate to book a tour with Antonio!

Great tour - Wow! Have been to Portugal several times and have seen beautiful places, but the cliffs, beaches and ocean on the west coast are breathtaking. Our tour guide António Bule was so knowledgeable. We learned so much about Portugal, its history, the flora and if it was native to the area, the Portuguese people in the past and now.He is friendly, accommodating, and very thoughtful. It was like travelling with a good friend. We never felt rushed and even got to see a paraglider run off a cliff. Best tour I have been on.

A 10 Star Day! - A magical day…being chauffeured and guided by Antonio to one fascinating, beautiful location after another. Antonio is respectful, knowledgeable, and knows this area well, taking us safely and easily to places I’ll keep dreaming about. I’d do this tour again if I was here longer!

We would take any tour led by Antonio! - We went to explore sights and beaches of the Algarve west coast. We went to Sagres and visited about 8 beaches. All of them were unique and beautiful. You can’t name what was the best one. We were lucky with the weather and especially with Antonio! We loved his company and the knowledge he has about the region.

South Explorers, Lagos - What a wonderful day we had exploring the towns of west coast Algarve- amazing views, exquisite beaches and lots of information about early Portuguese explorers. Our guide, Antonio, was terrific- the tour was well-paced, his knowledge of the area extensive and his restaurant choice for lunch was top notch- a glorious time!

Amazing adventure! - My friends and I had a great time exploring the West Coast with Antonio. We experienced areas we would never find on our own, especially not having a car. Antonio was so knowledgeable and accommodating. The pace of the tour was perfect. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch was amazing, a true treat. Antonio not only shared his knowledge of the area, but also his passion for the area. The west coast is truly untouched. Every turn and every stop offered another breath taking view. Without hesitation I would recommend a tour with Antonio. I look forward to visiting Portugal again, and will be sure to use South Explorers again! Thank you Antonio for making our vacation so memorable.
