A 1-hour electric tuk-tuk tour through Faro’s old town, plus Carmo Church, with an easy meeting spot and time to explore solo.

“Gostamos muito do passeio pelo centro de Lisboa, a Lúcia foi muito carinhosa com nosso filho de 5 anos! Ela deu ótimas dicas!”
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.”
3-hour Faro tour with Portuguese wine tasting and 10 tapas at local spots, ending in a speakeasy-style finish near the market.
“We loved this tour so much and Alessandra was so friendly and helpful!”
A private 1-hour Faro highlights tour by 100% electric tuk-tuk, led by a local guide. Cathedral, churches, views, market stops.
“Heel veel gezien in origineel voertuig. Tuk tuk rijdt rustig zodat je alles goed kunt zien. Het was een aangename rondleiding”
