Spectacular Benagil Cave and dolphins experience!!! - Absolutely worth it! The marine biologists are a wealth of knowledge and have so much passion for the ocean life. The captain took us through the canal by the seagull rock where we saw so many seagulls and egrets. The skilled captain took our boat into the Benagil Cave! Two days earlier we were on a different boat tour and were not able to go in cave because the waves were choppy and very rough. After exploring the coastline, the captain knew where to go and beelined to the dolphins! They knew where they were feeding. We saw 5-10 dolphins and two species: bottleneck and Risso’s dolphins. Absolutely SPECTACULAR!!!

An Unforgettable Experience from Start to Finish !!! - I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the 5emotionsalgarve team for the fantastic experience they provided for me and my family. From the ticket purchasing process to the entire tour itself, everything was exceptional, clear and detailed explanations, the friendliness of the whole team, and outstanding organization throughout. I would also like to highlight a particularly important aspect: the honesty and integrity of this company and its staff. My mother-in-law was unable to attend at the last minute, and I did not expect to receive a refund, as her seat had already been sold and left unused. Nevertheless, the amount was refunded to my credit card, which truly demonstrates the company’s commitment to customer satisfaction. Congratulations to everyone involved, and please continue creating memorable and joyful experiences for others, the world truly needs more moments like these.

DOLPHIN WATCH AND BENAGIL CAVES - Booked the 12 noon Dolphin and cave boat trip. Boat was larger than most that view caves and was very comfortable. Staff we really professional, asking people if they we okay several times and commentery and communication excellent through out trip. We were very lucky to find a large group of bottle nose dolphins and spent 45 mi utes watching and videoing the pod, amazing seen them play feed and jump. We then continued onto coast line tour with amazing views of beautiful beaches and of course the famous Benagil caves. This trip is a must for anyone visiting the Algarve. 5 stars

Not disappointed ... at all!! - The whole tour was so well organised, from start to finish. We did book via our tour rep (Jet2), which made it very easy. The ticket collection was very easy to find as well, we simply ordered an Uber, and it pretty much dropped us off at the ticket office. Easy to board boat and felt safe from a H&S perspective. Boat was very cool ... quite fast. Whoop!! The biggy ... we (eventually) found a pod of around 100 Common Dolphins. Wow! The fact there was a Marine Biologist on board made it all the better. After that, a cruise along the cliff caves, starting at Benegil. Awesome. Highly recommended!

Unique experience - As a family it was an amazing and memorable experience because we had the opportunity to see the dolphins in the wild. The staff were amazing, starting with the lady from where we bought the tickets and finishing with all the crew from the boat; top marks!

Amazing - Thank you to the entire @5emotions team🙏 I highly recommend this experience only. I felt a lot of emotion when viewing the my boys in their natural habitat 🐬 It was a trip full of information and good mood. The marine biologist, in addition to speaking four different languages, is also a super friendly person and full of good energy. ☀️ We ended the tour with a little adrenaline. I'll be back soon 🤞🍀

We went to see the dolphins. They didn't show up. - We paid for a ticket with this company to see dolphins instead of going to another company to just see caves for half the price but in the end we paid more and only saw caves. I understand that you cannot control the appearance of dolphins, but so that the client doesn't end up at a loss as well, it would only be good for them to have given us the possibility of taking another trip, especially because, as I observed, I believe that the boat is not completely full every time. the trips you make. When the trip ended, the guide said that unfortunately no dolphins were seen this afternoon also by the other companies but they should give us the opportunity to do it again. €72 was spent in vain. However, I have nothing to say about the condition of the boat and the guides. Nice boat and friendly guides.
