I traveled alone and was assigned 2 different roommates as it was different tours. The program was packed and sometimes was tiring but I would not ask for less. The itinerary was well thought off and planned so would not change anything except to spend more time in Andoora as I felt that was a bit rushed and there was still so much more I wished to see.
Eskapas was an excellent trip! They took care of all the tedious parts of traveling, including booking all accommodation and transportation, leaving me with lots of free time to organize all the exciting activities I wanted to do in each place. The tour guide was excellent in pointing out to us the best places in the area and responding to all of our inquiries.
The tour included a variety of experiences. It was a busy schedule designed to see much of Portugal which I wanted.
the tour director was excellent. She was professional yet able to relate to others on a personal level.
was an excellent trouble ******* when presented by unexpected challenges.
manouvered the bus expertly. He was efficient loading the cases. He was also polite and helpful getting off the bus.
The tour with Destination Services was great! Ysmail was very knowledgeable and patient to explain everything. Victor was very helpful with the luggages and made sure that the bus is clean. Hotel accommodations were nicely picked as well. The only thing I was not expecting was the 2 days that we were left on our own to go back to the hotel due to extra activities that we did not participate. Other than that, all great experience!

Overall, we had a very nice trip. The itinerary is arranged well and includes good recommendations for places to stop and points of interest to visit. The hotels are all owned by the same company called Vila Gale, and are all about what I expected for the price point � nice and comfortable with basic rooms � the one outlier was the Vila Gale Collection Alter Real, which was stunning! We had a very nice trip to Portugal overall.
Very friendly guide and he took care of us in best possible way. Time table was good, and took care of that everyone was able to follow the guidance. Great itinerary overall, thanks Destination Services Portugal!
It was a wonderful experience. The hotels are way above my expectations. Just one little thing not too important is that there is drop off fee at Faro airport. I totally recommend this tour to my friends.

We had a great time! The hotels picked for us were so great. The breakfast must have been awesome because when i came home weighed the same as when i left and we walked lots. The location of the hotels put us in the middle of the best areas. Very helpful with all our needs. Would book with them again.
