Overall a great experience !

Excellent driver Jose! Benagil caves could not be done due to an accident that occurred the previous day as per the driver. He took us to a winery for wine tasting instead. It was a great experience. The driver appeared quite cordial and very pleasant to talk to. We recommend him highly ! Incidentally he was the same driver for a previous day pick up from Lisbon to Algarve via Evora.

Thank you very much for your thoughtful review, RAVI_C. We’re delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience on your private tour from the Algarve. José will be truly grateful for your kind words. His professionalism, pleasant personality, and attentive care are qualities we value deeply, and we’re glad they made your day enjoyable. Although the Benagil Caves were not accessible due to the unfortunate accident the day before, we’re happy to know that the alternative visit to the winery turned into a great experience for you. It’s also wonderful to hear that José accompanied you on your previous transfer from Lisbon to the Algarve — and that he left such a strong impression both times. Thank you sincerely for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you again soon for more memorable moments in Portugal. Warm regards, Meridian4People – Private Tours & Transfers
