Private Algarve Adventure Tours for Retreats, Teams & Groups
A One-of-a-Kind Outdoor Experience for Your One-of-a-Kind Group
Looking for something extraordinary for your group? Whether you’re a retreat leader, corporate organizer, or simply a group of friends seeking something special, I design custom outdoor experiences that go far beyond the typical tourist trail.
This is not another bus tour: This is into-the-wild hiking, deep connection with nature, stories that bring the land to life, moments of shared laughter, and a sunset feast of Algarvian tapas & wine—all tailored to your group’s pace, interests, and goals.
I bring 12+ years of guiding experience, trusted by international retreat leaders, wellness professionals, and corporate teams around the world who return year after year. Every detail—from route selection to dinner menu—is crafted with care.
No crowds. No cookie-cutter experiences. Just your own private adventure—immersive, memorable, and truly one-of-a-kind.

Why You & Your Group Will Love This Experience
Unique, Immersive Itineraries
Skip the crowds & tourist traps: I’ll lead your group into the most undiscovered corners of the Algarve, places chosen for their beauty, solitude, and sense of discovery—so it feels like a real adventure, not just a tour.​
​
​
Tailored to Your Vision
Every detail is designed around your group’s goals, abilities, and schedule. From a gentle exploration to a bold challenge, from beach time to breathwork session, your experience is built for just you.​​
​
​
Trusted Expertise
For over a decade, I’ve guided for major international group travel companies, small bespoke retreat organizers, and everything in between. Many return year after year.
Memorable Touches
From a striking sunset to a shared clifftop picnic, from compelling stories to quiet moments of stillness, our day is much more than a hike: It's a rich, full-sensory outdoor experience.
​​
​
Full-Service & Stress-Free
From first contact to final farewell, I handle every detail—with clear communication, seamless logistics, and reliable follow-through—so you can focus entirely on your guests.
​​
​
Flexible (& Fun!) Transport
From intimate retreats to large groups, I can carry up to 16 participants in my two classic VW adventure vans—windows down and music up. For larger groups, I can arrange a third vehicle, mini-bus, or coach.

"I’ve booked three custom tours with T.J and just booked a 4th for my next retreat.
My groups all agree: Our day with T.J. is the absolute highlight of our trip to the Algarve. He creates a personalized experience, tailoring every detail to fit the needs and abilities of the group.
T.J. is warm, funny, and a fantastic storyteller. If you’re looking for a truly special experience, I highly recommend spending a day with T.J.
It’s an adventure that may just become one of the highlights of your life!

“T.J. is the reason I bring my retreats to Lagos, full stop. That is the ultimate compliment.
T.J. makes the whole experience feel seamless, immersive, and deeply personal. The tour itself is like a journey that makes you feel part of something bigger. Absolutely unforgettable.
And it’s not just me—I hear the same thing from every one of my guests. T.J.’s communication, attention to detail, and passion for what he does make him incredibly easy to work with.
You simply won’t get this experience with anyone else. 10 out of 10. Highly, highly recommend.

"T.J. is simply the best! Every time we work with him, he exceeds our expectations.
T.J. makes every hike a rich natural, cultural and historical experience. His deep understanding of the region, combined with his passion for sharing it, adds so much value to our retreats.
What truly sets T.J. apart is the way he balances challenge and reward—pushing us just enough, while ensuring the experience remains enjoyable and fulfilling.
Our retreat guests rave about him. It's a truly unforgettable experience!
