Great half day trip with a friendly, knowledgeable Driver - I received a whatsapp message the day before of our trip advising me what the drivers name was and a photo of the van, which was helpful. Rui our driver was very friendly, accommodating and very knowledgeable. He made the experience a great one. I would highly recommend this trip.

Wonderful morning and beautiful views driving along the coast from Lagos to Sagres and Cape St. Vincent! - What a great tour! Our guide Antonio was fantastic. My husband and I especially loved stopping at the little towns along the way to Sagres and Cape St. Vincent, especially Burgau - known as the "Santorini" of Portugal! Once in Sagres, we had about 40 minutes on our own to walk around the fort, etc., before heading out to Cape St. Vincent. Although the morning had been foggy, it had cleared up and we got some great photos of the gorgeous views! Antonio explained everything along the way, and was super friendly and easy-going. Loved the whole experience!

Very good tour - Very good tour. Recommended. The easiest way to go to Sagres Fortress and Cape St Vincent. Sagress Fortress is beautiful and historical, while Cape St Vincent a bit dissappinting because the lighthouse is not clearly visible, it is behind a building. Antonio gave us a bonus by visiting a beautiful cliff on a beaten track.
