We booked GL Tours with Gabriel for 1 day. It was our last day in Portugal and Gabtiel shown us a few great spots on the way from Lagos to Faro from which we had a flight home. Gabriel drove us right to the most attractive points of cavoreiro and Abufeira and explained where to go, what to see and where to eat. Super option for the day. No worries with the transportation, parking and looking around when you have little time. Gabriel shown us hidden gems we would probably not find ourselves. We recommend strongly.

I went on this 2 years ago with Brody and his english friend. My group had so much fun we're still talking about this 2 years later and I realized I promised Brody I'd leave a review and never did. We even got to see some horrible Belgian rapper making a music video in the cave (hilarious after all the sangria we had). This is an essential Lagos tour if you're younger and looking to drink and socialize. Such a great experience, you won't regret it.
