Minha família e eu pudemos conhecer alguns dos principais pontos turísticos do sul de Portugal num tour de três dias, passando por Sagres, Lagos, Ria Formosa, Tavira e Costa Vicentina. E ainda com a incrível guia Maria e motorista Gaspar, ambos muito simpáticos, atenciosos e exímios conhecedores dos locais, arte, cultura e história do país. Recomendo o tour e os guias.
