Fun time start to finish
Very fun, lighthearted trip with enthusiastic young guides. Would definitely recommend. Website was easy to navigate and book. Clear communication regarding booking, changes and confirmation. Much more pleasant experience than the aggressive sales tactics practiced by other tour guides around.
Awesome!
Great morning. The staff is awesome and gave us an amazing experience by taking us to beautiful places and even the boat trip was great.
Paid for a cave tour, got dolphins as well!
You've got to do this! We have been travelling and touring for nearly a month. This is the best tour yet. We lucked out by booking in the morning, our 18 seat boat only had six! Almost a private tour! We were told the later in the day the busier the boat as well as the caves. Benagil is a hugely popular cave, it means you will be competing with a ton of others. On boats and paddle boards. Lucas and André took us from Portimao through a whole bunch of smaller but incredible caves. Explaining and pointing things out along the way. The size of our boat allowed us to go where many can't. We lucked out and saw a pod of dolphins along the way near shore! André steered us quietly and slowly to parallel their path. What a great sight. So our tour was not only the caves, but a dolphin tour as well! Well worth it. These guys are pros. Do it, you won't regret it.

Great fun, Lucas was a fantastic tour guide and Captain André was exceptional. They took us to all the caves, including the iconic one. Lots of pictures opportunities, fun riding the boat, jumps and big splashes and even went for a swim
Awesome boat tour!!!
Sensational way to start our first day in the Algarve Region!! Our guides were friendly & relaxed, whilst also being very informative & professional. LOVED it, don’t bother looking at other tours - just book this one!!!!
Fantastic tour - Highly recommend
We were fortunate that the tour we originally booked was canceled and scheduled this one at the last moment. We highly recommend this tour, everything about it was fantastic. The boat ride was so amazing. They took us directly into some caves and then had a photo opportunity in the Bengil cave and brought us right up to the cliffs. They narrated the entire trip. The "captain " of the boat was so skilled and both guides truly made the tour through their personalities and humor. It was one of the highlights of our Portugal trip.
