Cruise the Ria Formosa on an electric 2x2 bike, spot flamingos and storks, then ride to Faro Island’s quiet beach for a guided sunset-style outing.
“I really enjoyed my experience with E dirt bikes, having never been on a motor bike before and being of more senior years (65) it was well explained and very easy to get used to. Spend a great 2 hours going through Quinta, ria Formosa lagoons seeing flamingoes, storks and much more to Faro Island which in itself is worth a day trip. Even a bit of offloading. I will definitely do the mountain offloading next time. Recommend for everyone.”

“Just back and still buzzing from a great day out with Mark and Simone. I did the "Alte and Beyond" tour which included a stop at a little herb farm where we sampled a couple of shots of Medronho and honey mixed with various flavours, absolutely delicious. There were many herbs and spices to buy there, both for cooking and medicinal purposes. Our next stop was the river at Alte, a quaint little award winning village where there was an option of cooling off in the crystal clear water. Afterwards, we sped down into the centre of the village and stopped off for a typical Portuguese lunch which consisted of…”

“Sublimes paysages, des flamants roses très proches, le tout avec un guide qui donne des explications tout au long de la visite! Un joli moment de quiétude avec un rythme tout à fait sympathique!
