★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Booked Historical tour Algarve. Picked up 7:50am by mini bus, picked up others at other hotel, then drove us to main coach, picked up more passengers then guide said bus wasnt big enough as more passengers were arriving by mini bus so dumped at lay by for 15-20 mins until bigger bus arrived. Picked up more passengers at another hotel - 2hrs on coach at this point! Drove to Silves told 1 hour to see castle(not included in cost) hill to top quite steep (at least 10 min walk each way)and wasn't suitable to those unable to walk far. Back on coach to Monchique(heavy cloud and rain but weather not tour guide fault) so no views then taken to "gift shop". On way down Lunch offered at £14 pp - one hour allowed- not much else to do if you didn't take lunch - then off to Cape St Vincent - meagre 30 mins allowed - barely enough time to take few pics - next stop Lagos, arrived 5pm ,(Sunday trip, so lot of shops closed) option to visit church and museum, cost not included, 1 hour allocated then back on coach for all the drop offs! Arrived back hotel 8pm - Total time at sites - not including lunch stop = 2.5 hrs - total trip time =12hrs - do yourself a favour, save time and money and do something else!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ June 28th coach trip to Seville from Portugal. Early morning start and pick up from various hotels but this was as expected. Changed to a large modern coach in alberfuira. Guide was very good and the driver was reliable. Well timed, appropriate comfort stops each way. Had almost 5 hours in Seville which was more than we thought we would have. Evening return, long day but worth it. Very well organised by the company. Would recommend.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We took a Seville day tour with them. Not sure it is necessary where we are originally from for a few times until the tour guide on the bus got the right answer that they would want to hear from us. It probably matters to them It made us to feel a bit uncomfortable. 3 different languages constantly announced. The short tour given was only on the bus not walking or guided tour that was almost sounded like at the time of the purchase. The bus seats are very tight and uncomfortable. The tour guide on the bus was annoyed when asked a question despite the announcement made as they would welcome any questions. I fully understand that it was very tiring job but we also did not do anything wrong. It was NOT very nice of them... Never bothered her afterwards. Pick up took a long time. Drop off took longer although it was not announced how it could be arranged but somehow everyone knew... if we knew we would have wanted to jump off close to the hotel we stay... not sure why? What did we do wrong? Overall, I would not recommend to anyone!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Tuesday 10 September, Albufeira to Lisbon. I travelled with Follow Me about 5 years ago. Same excellent service as before from our guide Dominique. Had a good sense of humour and very informative. She tactfully dealt with a seating problem for my partner who is quite a bit taller than I! My partner, a professional driver thought George's driving very smooth and skillful which I agreed with. I have foot problems so appreciated seeing so much of Lisbon with one hour and three hour stopovers during the trip, enabling us to see so much. Recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Driver was 30 min late picking is up. Pick up location was miles away from our hotel.
Arrived to the castle in Silvas- no historical overview given, we had to buy tickets to get to the castle. If you wanted to visit a museum that was another extra charge.
Very aggressive selling techniques- brought to a cafe in the middle of nowhere ( Monchique?) and our guide Paola was trying to put us under pressure to buy a big lunch at 14 eur per person. We had a big breakfast before and we said no, ordered 2 omlettes and were given olives/ bread/ chips we never asked for, then charged a five star hotel prices for everything.
Then we were brought to a very tacky tourist craft shop with mad prices in the middle of nowhere - how it was connected to history?
Next stop was Lagos- the fort , castle and the slave market- again if you wanted to visit these historical places you had to buy a ticket. No historical background or overview was given by the guide.
Then brought to another tacky craft shop " At the end of the world".
Dropped back miles away from our hotel.
We were expected to tip the guide at the end of our trip - we have done a lot of tours before and were never under such pressure to tip.
Basically a tourist trap- save yourself money and stress and avoid- there are much nicer things to do in Algarve.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great tours at very reasonable prices. Worth checking out times of pick ups as you could end up sitting on the bus for nearly two hours picking up other passengers.
