We had an amazing half-day jeep tour! Our guide, Rui, was fantastic—super friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun. The ride itself was thrilling, with stunning views and plenty of great photo opportunities. Rui kept us engaged with interesting stories and made sure everyone was having a great time. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an adventure!

Une belle découverte. Un bon moment. Un bon chauffeur-guide qui connait son job ! En jeep décapotable, il peut faire froid quand le vent souffle en altitude !

What a thrill! Our driver took us on an exhilarating, wild ride up a mountain on dirt roads, through rough terrain all the time sharing the history of what we were seeing. The ancient Castelo de Paderne was so interesting having survived since the later 12th century. Vitor was the best driver, very skilled but so considerate and respectful of us, his older passengers as he assisted us in and out of the jeep so we could enjoy photo ops or just be amazed at the scenery we we were seeing along the way. We stopped in several small villages where we had time to enjoy coffee and pastry at delightful shops, We visited a 200 year old church, spent time at a Gogi berry farm. We highly recommend Vitor as our driver. Thank you. One of our group said he would do well as a NASCAR driver. :)
