A relaxing stay in Tavira - Best way to see Tavira and the must see sites. The train ride is very pleasant. The conductor also let us take a 10 minute stop at the castle so we can take some nice photos.

Great Wee Tour - We really enjoyed this wee tour, we went as a family of four plus a toddler and it was a great way to see the village and surrounding areas, we went on a cloudy day so it wasn't to warm. Definitely recommend this tour and it was easy to buy tickets from the internet and just step aboard

Great way to get the lay of the land. - OK everybody else has said it before and it's true it is a very rough and noisy ride to the point your joints hurt and you can't hear the multi-lingual audio tape...But hey the price is right, Tavira is a small place so you get a real idea where you want to go by way of an overview and the driver was great and stopped several times for photo ops.

Bumpy tour of Tavira. - This “train” is a simple and cheap (€6) way to 'explore' Tavira. (50min) Since the roads in Tavira mainly consist of small stones and relatively little asphalt, it is a fairly bumpy journey. Suspension of the trailers and seats are also quite 'stiff', but doable. You will pass all kinds of sights that you can visit at that moment (or later).

Not the best - Not the best . Needs to have earphones and more to show. The driver was polite but in order to boost tourism

Not worth time or money - Bad. Rude driver. Can’t hear info. Train doesn’t stop. Bumpy. However, Tavita is pretty so it was good to get our bearings. But seriously, do something else with your money and time.

Do not ride if you have problems with your neck! - The train goes around Tavira, but for those of us who have been here for a few days and walked around, we didn't see anything new. Extremely difficult and winding so ….. 7 euros per person we paid.

Cool looking but not very good - They play a sound track that is in a few languages including English. The driver just drives the tram around the city. The plus is it is very inexpensive and not reservation is needed. We just rode it, no real reason to hop off. It runs once an hour and last 50 minutes total. A lot of the audio tour is in languages that we did not understand. They give you a brief history and explanation. We would not do this again.

Bumpy and sure we left some people behind - The strangest little train ride ever. So bumpy and we only stopped once at some gardens and every got off . We weren’t sure how long we were stopping for in fact no one knew so just kept our eyes on a couple of other people that were on the train to make sure we didn’t get left behind. The driver rang the bell and set off but we definitely left some folks behind. Whether they’d had enough of the cobbles and no suspension or missed the bus I’m not sure.

A poor choice - We started out on roads so bumpy that if you had a bad back it would not be good for you. Because of the noise of the road we couldn't hear the very short commentary. Don't think it was very informative anyway. There was supposed to be 6 stops but our driver only stopped once at a hotel. He didn't even bring us past the castle. All around very poor tour.
