This was an amazing tour! We will have the memories for years to come!! The caves are absolutely stunning and the tour guide was so friendly and made sure everyone was having a good time. He was knowledgeable and entertaining and so kind and patient with our 2 kids! We asked lots of questions and he was happy to answer. Can't recommend it highly enough, it was just so enjoyable and relaxing! The caves are really marvelous and a wonder to see...

It was so easy to book and pay with Trip Advisor. The reviews are excellent, the trip is very well priced and the departure point is right opposite our hotel, so this seemed like a great choice for us. There are several times to choose from during the day. We were happy with 1130. Everyone wears a light lifejacket and the seating position is akin to being on a theme park ride with a bar to hold on to. There was a friendly guide to give us interesting information about the buildings and beaches on our way. We stopped in around 6 caves, all different, and went into some of them for a better look. The features are stunning and you get an idea of the other areas on that little part of the South coast. Before starting the return trip we were offered the chance to have a quick swim off the boat. My daughter was delighted to do that. We then scooted back a little faster to our departure point. It was just the right amount of time for me. Informative, entertaining and excellent value for money. Highly recommended.

The trip was amazing. Big thanks to the captain and the guide who was just perfect, explained everything and was really fun to listen to. We definitely recommend this trip to everyone who might be thinking about it. We are glad we chose this company to do it with.

Wow! Diego and his partner were wonderful guides. First they took us up coast toward Lagos where we came upon several pods of enormous dolphins some offering a show by swimming under our boat or beside it. After a generous amount of time with the dolphins Diego took us to the gem of the Algarve, Benagil Cave. It was busy but felt we had enough time to take in the beauty. After Benigil we explored coves caves and beaches along the sandstone cliffs navigating back to Portimao. Five star experience not to be missed.

Marcelo and Lorenzo were amazing as guide and captain. The boat was fast and quite exciting. We had a very nice calm day on the water, allowing us to go inside many caves. The cave views were amazing and the experience was well worth it.
