This is not your typical Algarve experience. While most travelers stick to tourist hotspots, we venture off-grid into the wild, untamed landscapes of Costa Vicentina Natural Park—a place few visitors ever experience.
Every trip is handcrafted, immersive, and shaped by the group, the season, and the moment. Instead of following a rigid itinerary, we adapt, explore, and let nature guide the experience. We don’t just see nature—we experience it through storytelling, hands-on discovery, and moments of reflection.
This is not a big tour company—it’s just me, sharing my passion for this place, leading every hike, cooking every meal, and making sure every guest feels part of something special.
I aim to offer something real, immersive, a bit off-beat, and deeply personal—not just another tour, but a memory for life.

Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness
THIS TRIP IS DESIGNED TO BE INCLUSIVE & ACCESSIBLE to most all healthy, active people. However, this is a physical experience that requires a basic level of good fitness.
THE DAY IS BIG, BUT *NOT* EXHAUSTING: We spend about 4-5 hrs hiking, but always at a relaxed pace, taking breaks & adapting to diverse abilities.
THE CHALLENGE comes from the terrain, which can be rocky, loose, steep & slippery. As well, we will be near to some high cliffs & edges, which require care and attention to move around..
NO SPECIAL SKILLS ARE REQUIRED. You only need a basic, normal level of good balance, coordination & full-body mobility.
THE #1 REQUIREMENT is that you have a positive attitude, the desire to put in some hard work, & the ability to overcome challenges with a smile ;)
GUESTS 60+ should feel extra confident that you are healthy, fit, & have good mobility. The more "advanced" your age, the more confident you should feel that you are capable of... (1) a few hours of sustained, low-level aerobic activity (like a long walk or bike ride); (2) shorter periods of more vigorous exertion (like hiking a big, steep hill, or playing a good game of tennis); (3) the balance and full-body mobility to move across areas of loose, uneven, or slippery terrain that might require using hands and whole bodies; (4) the spirit for adventure and the ability to take on some (potential) challenges with a smile :)
The "small group tour" experience is for age 17+ only. Families with children must book a Private tour.
You can cancel up to 24 hours in advance of the experience for a full refund.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
If you cancel less than 24 hours before the experience’s start time, the amount you paid will not be refunded.
Any changes made less than 24 hours before the experience’s start time will not be accepted.
Cut-off times are based on the experience’s local time.
This experience requires good weather. If it’s canceled due to poor weather, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.
This experience requires a minimum number of travelers. If it’s canceled because the minimum isn’t met, you’ll be offered a different date/experience or a full refund.

Zeker een aanrader!!!! Ik zou hiervoor terugkomen, terwijl ik dat niet snel doe, omdat de wereld zo groot is en we niet zoveel tijd hebben!!!

T.J. hat uns sicher und professionell an Orte geführt, an denen man diese wilde und atemberaubende Landschaft abwechslungsreich und still genießen kann. Er hat sein fachkundiges Wissen gerne geteilt und ist zu jeder Zeit emphatisch und sympathisch ! Unser gestrige Wandertag war in 3 einzelne kleine Touren unterteilt. Er gestaltet seine Wanderwege kurzfristig, je nach Wetter, Konditionen und Möglichkeiten. Dabei sind wir zu 100% zufrieden gestellt worden und haben mit unserer kleinen Gruppe - es gab noch eine weitere Wanderbegeisterte Dame - einen perfekten Tag erlebt. Wir hatten genug Zeit zwischendurch auszuruhen, Wasser zu trinken - es war ziemlich heiß- und zur Freude aller sogar die Möglichkeit an einem kleinen, abgelegenen Strand im Meer abzukühlen. Das leckere Picknick bei Sonnenuntergang, mit einem Gläschen Wein dazu, hat dem eh schon wunderbaren Wandertag die Krone aufgesetzt. Wer gerne zu Fuss unterwegs ist , die Natur liebt und dem üblichen Tourismus gerne mal entfliehen möchte, der ist hier genau richtig aufgehoben. Da T.J‘s Touren immer unterschiedlichen Voraussetzungen unterliegen, wird jede zu etwas sehr Individuellem. Vielen Dank für diesen fantastischen Tag! Wenn wir das nächste Mal wieder in der Algarve sind, buchen wir hier sicherlich nochmal eine Tour. Gemma&Carlos
