What people are saying about Almancil

Highly recommended! We had booked in the morning, but unfortunately everything was already full for the day (the availability display on getyourguide was incorrect). Nelson contacted us immediately and organized the sunset tour for the 4 of us in the evening. We then did this together with Andre, who was a really great guide. He told and explained a lot and took us to really nice spots. You felt really safe with him!

Andrea was an excellent guide. The Segway was so much fun. I didn’t realise you have to balance but it didn’t take long to master. It goes so fast and was exhilarating, especially taking in the beautiful scenery. The seafood lunch did not disappoint. It was absolutely delicious and looks exactly like it does in the picture. Overall we would definitely recommend. Thanks Andrea!

Love the experience of using the segway to navigate and explore the place!!! It’s my first time using segway and was very nervous in the beginning but Nelson is such a great teacher! And a great and fun guide throughout the tour! We’ve seen a lot of wildlife and learned interesting facts. It’s such a wonderful and fun experience i would definitely recommend!

The Segway's were really easy to learn and operate. The terrain was so much more enjoyable than taking a Segway tour IN a city. It felt great to be out in nature. Our kids were safe and we were happy.

It was a good experience to do this activity outside with the breeze of fresh air. Just wished it could go on for a bit longer. Only one round for 10 mins.
