What to expect

Away from the coastal resort towns, the Algarve is still a very rural and rugged region. Explore its winding dusty trails and sleepy villages on this off-road 4x4 adventure. You can choose either a full-day excursion, or one that takes just an afternoon.

As the sea and the larger buildings recede in your rear-view mirror, you'll be struck by how quickly you're out in the sparsely populated and beautifully remote countryside. Travelling in convoy, your rugged 4x4 will let you explore the hidden heart of the Algarve, which isn't accessible to other vehicles.

Drink in the ever-changing scenery as you trundle down dirt tracks and descend into secret valleys, rising up again to traverse gorgeous meadows. You'll pass through quaint and tiny villages, well off the beaten track – where the simple ways of life of a seemingly bygone era are still the norm. You'll visit a small distillery where the locals brew their beloved medronho liqueur, and also gain insight into honey being made in the traditional way. The day is perfectly book-ended with a local meal – with drinks included.
