Worth the trip 100 percent. - The beauty here is stunning. To be able to see Inside some of the caves was incredible. The dolphin watching was okay, we did see some but the caves were the highlight! Bring your camera!

Perfect cruise! The boat is very stable and we went into right into the caves and close to the dolphins - The crew were exceptionally kind and helpful: my daughter can’t walk and they made her feel very comfortable and welcome. We plan to go again!

Cave and dolphin trip - I highly recommend this trip, just enough time out to sea to see the caves, we were also lucky to see dolphins too. The crew were great, very friendly and booking at the desk on the day was easy

Fantastic end to our holiday. - We booked this via TUI and did the boat tour on the last day of our trip and it was a fantastic way to end the holiday! The caves along the coast are stunning and the guides made the 2 and a half hours so fun and enjoyable for everyone (and notably they speak several languages which is very impressive!). We were lucky enough to see dolphins and get to swim in the ocean on our trip, it really couldn’t have been more perfect. Would highly recommend!

A pleasant tour. - Nice tour of the coast of Algarve, the boat hosts are very professional and were always concerned for the safety of all passengers. Unmissable views, we pass through several caves with enough time to take photos and enjoy the landscape. Unfortunately we did not find the dolphins but the walk was still very memorable.
It would be nice if the guides’ accounts were more educational, including scientific, historical, etc. I found his speech a little superficial.

Scammers - Scammers, online bookings and selling more of the capacity they have and to top it off they do not return the money. I claimed it, they agreed and I'm still waiting. Be careful
