My tour guide, John was quite amicable. He made the drive even more pleasurable with his fantastic choice of music, interesting conversation and information about various sites along the way.
The drive to Algarve region from Lisbon was quite scenic. The landscape and scenery along the drive were beautiful. There were orange orchards, olive orchards and Cork Oaks groves, including one recently harvested cork oak grove along the way. One of the main highlights of the drive was the groups of huge White Stork nests in electrical transmission towers along the highway.
The view of the Portuguese coastline from the boat ride on the way to the Benagil caves from Portimão was magnificent. The boat captain and the docent were excellent at their jobs, and quite lovely young ladies as well.
All in all, it was an excellent and rewarding tour.
