Magnificent view of the coast from the sea! - It was a unique experience. The landscapes, the colors of the setting sun on the rocks, the whims of nature on the coast, over the thousands of years...beautiful. And also, in the best company. Both the captain and the guide who explained every detail of the coast were our friends on the route. One of the visitors threw himself in the very cold water!! Hahahaha. It's worth it!

Outstanding - Everything about this experience was first class. From the welcoming crew, to the immaculate brand new catamaran. The captain went above and beyond at the caves for the best experience. The return trip featured delicious fruit and snacks, as well as a liquor tasting.what a great time. Eddy.

Views make it worth it. - Excellent views. Good communication from vendor. Highly recommend. One thing that could have made it better is for the tour guide to speak over a loud speaker so that everyone can hear what he says. He could have also done a better job at sharing lot more history of the place.

Nighmare waves, very scary! - Got an email day before that the kind of catamaran boat is changed. Should have been a red flag for us but what do we know? This boat tour should have been cancelled by the company in the first place. The waves were already very choppy at the start and it got worse during the return. Waves were going into the boat. The boat did not go into the Benagil caves for obvious reason ( the boat had the frame for the sail ) Several people were soaked but luckily, no one seemed ill. The only saving grace of this boat tour were the amazing crews who were very helpful, attentive and did their best to be informative inspite of the sea conditions. Welcome drinks of wine and lemon juice then coffee and tea after the tour. Thank you, Sunday afternoon crew Dec 1, 2024. Big tip. Fresh lemon to smell and sucked on to help with seasickness. Big lesson for me, no boat tours in the Algarve during winter season!

Disappointing, give us the choice - We were advised the night before in the change of vessel. This was very disappointing. We were not given the opportunity to cancel our reservation. This was very unfair. We booked the smaller boat so that we could experience the full beauty of the Benagil cave. This was ruined, by only getting close to it. We did not get the experience we paid for. We would have liked to have had the choice of continuing with the tour or cancel. The crew were great. I would request compensation. We could have booked with another tour operator, but chose Viator as I have always used you. But in this occasion you have disappointed us.
