This excursion offers contrasting ways to discover the hidden Algarve. In a 4x4, you'll roam through a nature reserve, head into the hills, stumbling upon timeless villages along the way. And you'll also visit country homes and enjoy a relaxing river cruise.

On the 4x4 tour, you'll explore the Algarve's less-visited corners, seeing locals carry out their age-old customs. There's a stop in an organic farm along the way. Another highlight is when the convoy zigzags through the marshland Nature Reserve of Sapal de Castro Marim e Vila Real do San Antonio.

Lunch is special, too. You'll drop into a country estate for a local dishes washed down with wine. It overlooks the River Guadiana and the whitewashed hamlet of Foz de Odeleite. There's time for a swim and to listen to the rhythms of live music, too. And there's also a cruise on the Guadiana to look forward to. Sit back and take in the views of Spain and Portugal – the river is the border between the two.

Brilliant day out. Enjoyed every minute. Very educational. Loved seeing all the wildlife and trees and flowers. Delicious food, good entertainment and a lovely boat trip. It was a birthday present for my husband, who thoroughly enjoyed the experience

The team at Moorish trail supersafari were amazing, from pick up to drop off. The off road safari was great ant the stop for lunch with entertainment was excellent. The food was lovely and the singing and dancing was very entertaining. The boat ride back was also entertaining with singing and dancing also. I would recommend the trip if you want to see the real Portugal and also across the border into Spain.

I enjoyed everything! The organiser was welcoming and informative, as were all staff we met throughout the day. The scenery routes, food, etc were amazing. It felt quite personal although there were about 40 of us. Just a stunning day, staff had great sense of humour and their singing was amazing. You really felt immersed in Portuguese history and culture. I loved it and recommended it to everyone we met afterwards.

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The off roading part in the morning is by far the best we have ever done. Our driver was fantastic and gave us information about the surrounding area and Portugal along the way. The food was lovely, and the singing the staff did was amazing. We really enjoyed this. Finally finishing with the boat cruise with music this was a fantastic end to the day. Would highly recommend this to anyone. Thank you for such a fabulous trip!

Ich hätte mir mehr Vogelbeobachtung incl. Flamingos gewünscht, vor allem aus einer näheren Entfernung. Vögel und Flamingos waren kaum zu sehen.
