About Tour Guide Max K.
Hi, I’m Max, and I’m here to take you on an unforgettable adventure in the Algarve!
My journey has always been driven by adventure and a great passion for the sea and the skies. Many people know me from my acting career (I was an actor for 20 years on Brazilian television), but my true calling has always been exploring the world. At 22 years old, I became a private pilot, and since then, I’ve completed some major expeditions across Brazil in my airplane, logging over 5,000 flight hours. But my thirst for adventure didn’t stop there!
I travelled 21,000 kilometers across South America in a motorhome, living on the road for six months. And as a true ocean lover, I have crossed the Atlantic three times on sailing yachts! For the past seven years, I have been living aboard my sailboat, learning that the best way to live is with my feet in the water and my mind open to discoveries.
I’ve been living in Portugal for several years and I'm ready to be your guide in this spectacular region, sharing not only the best routes but also incredible stories and unique experiences. If you’re looking for an authentic adventure, with someone who truly understands and lives the spirit of sailing, I’m the perfect host to take you on this journey.
As your local guide, I am committed to creating a personalized and unforgettable experience. Whether you’re seeking breathtaking natural wonders, captivating cultural encounters, or a deeper connection with the Algarve’s sea soul, I invite you to embark on this journey with me. I’ll take you beyond the usual tourist routes, sharing hidden gems, fascinating stories, and the true essence of this magical region.

“Algarves Party Boat: good music, good drinks and good company”
We had an amazing experience with Algarve On Board, thanks to Max and Nateka! We booked a 6-hour private boat tour exploring 10 stunning caves, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and not all boats can go through the caves—so having the perfect-sized boat made the experience even more special. Since it’s a private tour, we also loved having full control of our time, which made everything feel relaxed and personalized. Max and Nateka were fantastic hosts—friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the area. Max owns both a large and a small boat, which gave us confidence that we were in safe hands, but what stood out even more is his genuine passion for sailing—you can really feel that he loves what he does. They made the whole trip fun and easygoing, sharing insights while also giving us time to simply enjoy the scenery. The stop for lunch was perfectly timed, and the food experience in Alvor is a must-try—definitely ask Max for recommendations! Overall, it was a memorable and well-organized experience. If you’re in the Algarve and looking for something special, I highly recommend booking with them. Definitely worth it!

Dear Ike, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was an absolute pleasure having you on board with us. We’re thrilled to hear that your private cave tour was one of the highlights of your trip. Exploring the Algarve coastline and its hidden caves is always a special experience, and we’re glad that our beautiful boat allowed you to fully enjoy places that larger vessels simply can’t access. Having the freedom to customize the day at your own pace is exactly what we aim to offer on our private charters. Max and Nateka will be especially happy to read your kind words. Their passion for the sea, local knowledge, and commitment to creating unforgettable experiences are at the heart of what we do. We’re also delighted that you enjoyed your lunch stop in Alvor. It’s one of our favorite spots to take our guests! Thank you again for choosing Algarve On Board and for taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back on board the next time you’re in the Algarve for another unforgettable adventure. Warmest regards, The Algarve On Board Team
