An amazing experience that you must do. - It was a great experience, so many beautiful caves to explore and see and the tour being done during the sunset is an amazing bonus. Staff members were very friendly, helpful and were a good laugh. A lot of historical knowledge on the places we passed were given during the tour, which is great for people who love history!!

I recommend to the whole family - What a fantastic experience! The Benagil Caves are one of the treasures of the Algarve, and exploring them on fastboats must have been exciting. To create comments that capture the essence of your adventure, consider the following points. The adrenaline of sailing in fast boats through the caves of Benagil is unmatched. The feeling of entering the caves and watching the rocky formations from close is simply amazing.A walk full of emotion and breathtaking landscapes. The fastboats provide a unique experience for exploring the caves of Benagil.

Fun, entertaining, beautiful - The staff were very friendly and well informed. They made it fun for us even though we were not able to go into the caves as the sea was too rough. They gave us interesting facts about all of the things we saw.

A beautiful boat tour! - It was a beautiful boat tour with an extremely personable tour guide who commented on the tour in an extremely humorous and informative way. Besides, she took photos of everyone who wanted to. The tour exceeded my expectations by far and I can really recommend it to anyone.

Entertaining coast tour - We really enjoyed this trip - Sergio and Sebastian the skipper were great, and gave us a fascinating and entertaining trip along the coast. We would recommend this as a great addition to our short visit to Alvor.

You won’t see what you expect! - Disappointed! The tour started late and showed us several caves before dark. When we arrived Benagil Cave, it’s dark, no sunset and couldn’t see anything like the picture, even worse than a small cave opening. I understand winter time sunset might start earlier, then the tour company should start the tour slightly earlier (the tour company told us to be the meeting point 30 minuets before the tour starts, all of us waited there) or take us to Benagil first, so we can see Benagil with the sunset. Wasted my time and money!
