Full description
Explore the plant and animal wildlife outside Faro on a 1.5-hour trip through the nearby Rio Formosa Natural Park. There, you will take a Segway tour of the reserve and spend time bird watching at Ludo, a natural reserve near Faro Beach, located inside the park. This area is a stopping place for hundreds of different birds during the spring and autumn migratory periods. The entire park is a protected area and home to several marine species and birds. It is a very special and quiet place where you can be in direct contact with nature. After pick-up, you will be taken to the park and given a Segway to use. This 2-wheeled electric vehicle uses the equilibrium of its driver to propel forward. Once you have been instructed how to operate your Segway, you will head out on the paths and trails in the park and discover the beauty and tranquility of this reserve. As you ride along, your guide will point out various animal species for you, exposing you to the natural and protected life of the region.

Excellente activité en « privé « . Que notre famille avec notre guide ( 5 en tout) qui parlait français . Très sympathique et prévenant pour la sécurité avec le segway . Très beau panorama » ria farmosa » en fin de journée avec en prime le coucher du soleil . Plus le tour dans le golf qui vaut le coup ! À recommander ++ Sylvie

This was the perfect tour for me and my twelve year old daughter. Andre, our tour guide was fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. He collected us promptly from our arranged spot and drove us to Ria Formosa where he explained how to operate the segways. He was very friendly and patient, particularly with my daughter, who struggled a little in parts. The tour itself was very interesting. We both thoroughly enjoyed the view and feel very lucky to have been able to experience such a beautiful part of Portugal. I would highly recommend this tour - it is most definitely worth it. If we return to the Algarve, we will most definitely book it again.

The tour is definitely recommended. The park is very nice, it's easy to drive on and you didn't have to rush. The guide was great too. The transfer didn't work due to the short-term booking, but the money was returned immediately.
