It would have been better for the free day not to be on a Sunday as there was a very reduced local bus service so it was not possible to explore the wider area.

Enjoy the beauty of the birds that migrate to the Algarve, on the Ria Formosa landscape. Join us on a tour by Segway, on Ludo, and feel in harmony with nature.
The tour starts near Faro Island and on it you'll explore one of the most characteristic and charismatic places around Faro - The Ria Formosa Natural Park - that extends all over the Algarve. The bit that we're going to explore comprehends almost 15km of raw nature.
In the end we also visit a special area called Quinta do Lago - one of the most expensive and luxurious condominiums in Europe! A bit of a Beverly Hills tour mixed with the wonders of a nature reserve in a perfect mix of calm relaxed landscapes and exciting adventure on the Segway itself!
We had an amazing trip touring the Algarve region of Portugal. Everything was organised superbly. We have plans to do more in the future and will definitely go with them again.
Very well organised tour. Excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and had strong management skills. Both the guide, Adrian and the support person Djon had a great sense of humour and responded well to the needs of the group.
