A private excursion not to be missed! - We had an unforgettable time thanks to our top French guides!
Florian and Morgan are attentive, really nice, looking for authentic places. We were able to see the essential sites but above all landscapes and small typical villages that we did not suspect. The service is perfect from start to finish, plus they pick you up from your hotel.
We recommend 100%!! A big thank you Urbanites!

June 2023 - A privilege to experience a private excursion with Morgan and Florian to visit the magnificent
countryside. A beautiful experience between typical villages and mountain landscapes.
We appreciated the comfort of the vehicle, the passion of our guides and the personalized service.
It is very pleasant to have met these 2 guides who offer tours in French, not
always simple in Albufeira. A great meeting!

An unmissable experience for French speakers! - I recommend the services of Morgan and Florian for the quality of the excursions they offer. Two great guides who will help you discover the "lands" of the Algarve in another way and in French (not easy in the region). A beautiful getaway with magnificent landscapes and the added bonus of authenticity! Everything is perfect from start to finish. Thank you both for this beautiful moment in your company.

Discover the Algarve differently - For our first trip to Portugal, we chose through a recommendation to visit the region with Florian and Morgan, who are excellent guides. They offer affordable, quality private excursions in French that allow you to discover the Algarve at your own pace with a different perspective. A visit to the hinterland is truly unmissable with the small typical villages and wild landscapes. A big THANK YOU to them for this beautiful moment of sharing in conviviality and simplicity!

An unforgettable experience with 2 great guides! - We took a half-day excursion departing from our club hotel located in Albufeira. Morgan and Flo picked us up outside our hotel. You can contact them with your eyes closed, in addition to being adorable, these two guides make you live an incredible moment full of discoveries, surprises and above all we greatly appreciated the quality of the content. If you are staying in Albufeira and want to visit the authentic hinterland and enjoy a unique experience, then Les Urbains Sauvages without hesitation! A must-see in the Algarve for travel lovers. A BIG THANK YOU to both of you.

A great private visit in good company! - We have lived in the region for several years, but when we receive
French friends we are asking Morgan and Florian to help us discover the Algarve
with another perspective and above all at our own pace.
A private day trip for 4 between the backcountry paths and the
superb coastal landscapes which offer us an itinerary which combines
the essential and the confidential. We discovered small villages that
we didn't know and we had lunch in a good little Portuguese restaurant.
It was a great experience full of sharing with passionate people who
wish to offer you beautiful, unforgettable moments. User-friendliness is
rigor throughout the day and it’s very pleasant!
highly and sincerely the excursions offered by Les Urbains Sauvages.
