About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- sarahleew20230 contributionsFabulous private tourThis was a fabulous private tour of Albufeira. We were able to request stops for photo opportunities and also were taken to all the best viewing points. We never felt rushed and were given loads of information about the sights we were seeing - including the local plant-life. All in all I would highly recommend this experience.Written 15 February 2023
- vanessadL1454AD0 contributionsAmazing!Fun trip around Albufeira, Tony was very informative and very helpful as our first time to Portugal, the 3 hour trip was nearly 3 1/2 hours, no rushing and went at our own pace. Well worth doingWritten 11 November 2022
- Neiloc250 contributionsFantastic TourWe have just had a wonderful 3 hour tour with Tony. I would highly recommend if you’re in the Albefuria area. My Father in Law has difficulties with his mobility & with Tony’s help we were able to get to sights that wouldn’t have been possible otherwise. Really first class service & visited some lovely places.Definitely the best way to see the sights in the Albefuria area.Written 11 July 2022

- Anna22Brighton0 contributionsFabulous!!!Had a tour today with Tony in Albufeira and he is was very helpfull to us!! As it was our first time to the algarve he really helped us with the restaurants and where to go.

Thankyou again TonyWritten 22 February 2022

- SAPayne19610 contributionsGreat RideAlex our tour guide was waiting at arranged pick-up point. Great fun ride with experienced and knowledgeable guide around Albufeira and surrounding area.

- Tyra B0 contributionsGreat family funTony was fantastic went over and beyond to show us around. My 8 year old and 17 year old thoroughly enjoyed it. We visited some amazing little gems around Albufeira. Would definitely recommend this.Written 22 July 2018
- csrothwec0 contributionsExcellent introduction to AlbufieraWe would thoroughly recommend Tony’s service for people who, like us, are paying their first visit to the area. Despite his near-native speaker level English, Tony is Portuguese, was born and brought up in the area and is obviously imbued with a love and passion for it which he is keen to pass on to others. The vehicle was ideal on what was a very warm day and with the sides and back fully open allowed for lovely cooling breezes throughout the trip. Tony arrived at our hotel “on the dot” at the time agreed and we enjoyed the two halves of the Trip very much; firstly, overland to two local beaches where the sand and rock formations were stunning, and then into Albufiera itself. The vehicle allowed for access to narrow alleyways which you would not dream of trying to enter with a hire car or in a minibus! Tony’s very informative commentary throughout was also very informative and interesting. (The only part of the Schedule we did not undertake was a visit to the “Strip”. Tony said he would be happy to take us IF we wished but warned us it had become a very unpleasant place “in the last three or four years” full of brainless yobs who only had two aims; to drink themselves senseless and then pick a fight with each other - or anyone else! We thanked him for the advice, said we had (more than) had to our fill of such places elsewhere (Aida Nappa/Cyprus and Malia/Crete) and we enjoyed the “extra” time spent visiting a restored old windmill my ch more than I am sure we would have done seeing a bunch of drunken losers sprawled in the gutter, thank you!) (To add to the problem, England were playing a crucial World Cup match at the time of our Trip, so we are sure Tony’s advice was right.) Dropped back at our hotel “on the dot” after two hours despite this curtailment of the advertised Schedule - the final proof of Tony’s excellent, fully professional and trustworthy service. As I say, thoroughly recommended.Written 8 July 2018
- lindsayvet0 contributionsLins and LiamAn excellent way to see around Albufeiras old town. The 2 kids,10 and 11 really enjoyed it, and we were able to get a good idea of all the places we wanted to revisit. Definitely worthwhile experience, thanks Tony!!Written 1 June 2018

A truly memorable moment.
I had spoken to Tony to arrange a ‘special trip’ a couple of weeks in advance; asking for details on what he offers and the trip itself - unknowing to my actual request he gave me all of the information and provided pictures of local beaches/scenic parts of Albufeira. I then sprung it on him that I would actually like to propose to my girlfriend and whether he was able to help me with the surprise and capture the moment.
Needless to say he did that (perfectly).
We met Tony outside our hotel and he gave us some information on the local area before heading towards the Marina for our first photo - we then drove up to a quiet spot on the cliff top where a lighthouse was located and panoramic views of the sea and Old Town. Tony had brought his bag (containing champagne and cherry’s in an iced container) with him, and I knew instantly this was going to be the spot. A quick shuffle around to get the right angle for the photo, and I knelt on one knee and asked my girlfriend the big question. Needless to say I got the words back I was hoping for, and Tony had captured the moment with photo’s and a video, and obviously my now Fiancée wanted thousands more photo’s which Tony captured perfectly. We ended the tour at a local beachside restaurant with sea views to video call our family to tell them the good news (and more importantly having that much needed beer!).
It was the perfect moment and not possible without Tony’s help which took stress out of a pretty stressful situation!
I couldn’t recommend him highly enough, and we’ll be sure to see him again for another trip around the area on our next visit.
Thanks Tony! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We contacted Tony having read the reviews and he replied very quickly and arranged to pick us up from our hotel to do the countryside tour. Tony was a fantastic guide, showing us some beautiful scenery and villages, stopping along the way at various points, including for a coffee and local liquor at a village cafe. We enjoyed discovering so many places and bits of information that we would never have discovered without Tony.
We would recommend Tony to anyone visiting Albufeira, it was definitely the highlight of our holiday.

Our family of 4; 2 adults with 2 young boys (aged 5,8) had a wonderful tour. Tony was super responsive on WhatsApp which made booking simple, he arrived early and was very accommodating to our questions and queries. The heat made it harder for my children but Tony’s service was A+. We especially loved the beach stops of which we back to our favourite days later 🙌🏻

Tonys Tuk Tuk tour was a highlight of our holiday. Tony picked us up from our hotel and took us to some wonderful places in the old town area we would never have otherwise found. Recommend you book a tour early in your holiday as you will be sure to want to revisit some of the hidden gems again before you go home. The Tuk Tuk is great fun and Tony is an excellent guide. Thanks Tony. Nick & Cathy

Tony met us at our hotel on time and gave us an idea of his planned route. He was knowledgeable about the sights and we were impressed by the variety of sights here in Tony’s Algarve. We toured around all parts of Albufeira, including the marina, old town, and then the coastline away from town. We made several stops for taking photos of the views out onto the water and the craggy coastline. At all times we felt safe and expertly driven around to view the beautiful scenery. On the way back to our hotel, Tony gave us advice on restaurants nearby. A wonderful 2 hours, great value and an amazing introduction to this area!

Tony took my friends and I around Albuferia today and we had a great time. He showed us the sights, stopped so we could take pictures and explained some of the history, took us to local beaches that we never would have found on our own. He grew up in Albuferia and not only knows the area but recommended a local Piri Piri restaurant for dinner. I would highly recommend him.

To start with. Very easy to book and Tony was very responsive with collection time and location.
What a laugh!! We had so much fun on this tour, we cannot recommend it highly enough. Tony asked us what we wanted to see when he picked us up from our villa. He took us on a 2 hour tour of the Old Town and The Marina and showed us plenty of amazing beaches to visit. Tony was very knowledgeable about the local area and ensured we had plenty of stops offs for photos.
He played music and encouraged a singalong, at the end of the tour he even dropped us off at an Ice Cream parlour. Thank you Tony - one of a kind tour!!

We were picked up at our hotel by Alex in a modern tuk tuk which spead us into Albufeira, first stop a high view of the old town, then on to the marina with it’s Goudi style buildings. Then to lighthouse point, with far reaching views of the coast, east and west. Afterwards we hugged the coast and Alex showed us the little bays where the locals go…all picturesque, some with their own carved sandstone structures.
The open air tuk tuk is a fab way to see the area, it was a comfortable ride and we felt safe, thank you.

Tony was so friendly and welcoming. He was great, he asked us where we had been during our holiday and took us to new places we hadn't already seen. He was very knowledge and took us to some beautiful beaches. It was definitely one of the best tours I have ever been on. We will definitely go on another tour next time we go to Albufeira and would highly recommend one of Tony's tours.

We had a great tour this morning with Tony. He picked us up from our villa then spent the next 2 hours taking us round various sights of Albufeira, giving us commentary, history and local knowledge of the area. We would thoroughly recommend Tony & his tour as a unique way to experience many interesting parts of Albufeira that you may not get to see otherwise. Thanks again Tony - was great to meet you!
