If after a few days of chilling out on the beach you fancy some action, then these quad bike tours around Monchique will have you zooming through the countryside in no time. Choose from a mini, a three-hour or full-day off-roading adventure.
You'll set off on trails surrounding Monchique, but this time with some adrenaline-pumping action thrown in. The hour-and-a-half tour gives you a quick burst of off-road action, suitable for families and beginners, with a stop at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve. But you can upgrade your experience to the three-hour tour, which features a few challenges – streams, riverbeds, ruins and a steep incline to the Foia viewpoint.
There's also the seven-hour exploration, which takes in a variety of terrains to really hone your quad biking skills. There'll be steep inclines to the highest panoramic viewpoint in the Algarve, Foia, and trails that take you past old ruins and Odiáxere Dam. You'll also stop off for lunch at a typical Portuguese restaurant.
