Benagal cave - We really enjoyed this tour and being able to paddle in the coves and caves was really cool! Seeing the cliffs from the sea was the best way to view them - especially benagal cave . Tami was our guide and was great. Always very attentive to safety and making sure everyone was ok. Would highly recommend

The guide was very... - The guide was very friendly and took us into various caves, including the Benegil algarve. Very educational and ensured everyone was challenged, while still ensuring beginners received adequate instruction to maneuver the caves.

First time kayaking - It was a beautiful experience,from the guide been friendly and welcoming to very informative and funny. It was lovely day well spent. The caves were beautiful,you need arm strength for the kayaking 😆 but it was worth the pain. I would definitely recommend it. Danish,alex and nuno were fantastic.

Beautiful, Fun, adventurous - Daniesh, Nuno and Alex (brothers) were fantastic on this trip! Nuno called to advise of the incoming storm and offered the next day or Tuesday for kayaking tour, we opted for next day 8am. It was a chilly start but warmed up quickly. Daniesh took us on a tour of the caves and hidden beaches. We were well informed and well looked after. Fantastic tour! Thanks gentlemen.

Nice experience, but without access to the cave - All very nice but you can not access the small beach to see Benagil cave up close. We were told that, due to a recent law, it is possible to approach the beach without being able to get off the canoe. Apart from that, it was a wonderful experience, led by a very nice and easy-going guide, which I recommend to everyone.

Amazing and worth it!! - My family and I booked the kayaking tour and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. It was fantastic for myself, my husband, and our 12-year-old. Exploring the caves by kayak was truly the best way to see their beauty up close. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English. We highly recommend this tour!

It didn't start well! But good experience. - WARNING you book for a slot but when sending you your ticket, there are instructions on the second page such as arriving 40 min before the time! We had not seen and with our only 15 minutes ahead, we were "late". Fortunately, after a little sermon, it may have been possible to join the rest of the group on the beach but another surprise: we booked a visit in French (listed on our ticket) and it is finally in English (the slots in French are 7am and 1pm, it was not specified on TripAdvisor). Fortunately, we understand English and the rest of the tour went very well. The guides are great! Patients and explain well rock formations such as kayaking techniques to pass through some caves. It's a bit of a tourist factory but in September we get to have pictures without anyone on it with the right angle. Can remind the time and meeting place directly in the email or on WhatsApp to avoid misunderstandings:)
