From this point forward, our expert guides will showcase the most captivating caves, ‘algars,’ and organic structures while ensuring the safety and amusement of each participant. Our exploration extends approximately for 2 hours and 30 minutes, during which, we will halt for respite and photography at Portugal’s most renowned cave, the ‘Algar’ of Benagil.

Kayaking to Benagil cave - Francesco is a great guide. He led the group with humour and control so we were all comfortable paddling on the ocean. It was good fun and the sights are now beautiful memories. The scenery is truly awesome. I would recommend it. The kayaks are comfortable and we never worried about tipping. This group should be your choice if you want a tour to remember.

Fun, gorgeous, fascinating, and educational! - We had a fantastic time on our tour with Francisco. He was super fun and friendly, while also providing a fantastic and educational experience about the history of the area, the geology, and the things that make Benagil and the Algarve so special. We don’t have a single complaint — the tour was well run, the kayaking was exciting (in spite, or maybe because of, the choppy seas), and we made great memories. Highest recommendation for Brotherootz!

Kayaking with BrotherRootz is the Best!! - Egas, our guide, very friendly, personable, informative for the whole trip. Excellent guide explaining what to do where to go, the history of the caves and Portugal. Very enlightening, so glad we took the private tour compared to seeing all the other groups who looked like cattle drives. Kayaking was challenging but doable, much more enjoyable than a boat rides that we saw, we were able to get up close inside the many caves and spend more time in each one.

Made the correct choice - Egas was a true delight as a guide. A wealth of information not only about the caves, but the history, the rock, everything. The smaller group size compared to some of the other tours was also much preferred

Amazing Kayaking/Cave Experience - We came with a large group (14 of us) with children aged from 8-16. Kayak guide Pedro and Egas took care of us and we all had a blast! 9am tour time is great as it’s not too hot and not too crowded. Highly recommended this for anyone to experience the Algarve coast!

Much better than we expected - This tour was simply fantastic! Out guide was very knowledgeable and explained to us how caves are formed and are destructed. Pictures were provided for free. The kayaks are much more stable than what I was used with in the past which is a relief considering the fact that there were some waves. The caves we visited were spectacular.

Super fun cave kayak experience - Fabulous tour with Egas who was super fun , very informative and engaging for all ages, also super safe. Everyone was looked after especially getting in and out of water , could see this wasn’t happening with larger groups . Small group definitely best choice. Would book this trip again . The kayak tour allows you to get out inside the cave (boat tours don’t) and we spent ages in there getting pics and learning about the history . Parking is busy in summer but could park on road and walk along just give yourself an extra 5 mins. Great experience thankyou and fabulous memories made :)

Amazing experience! - A fantastic kayaking experience. The tour guides were excellent and provided lots of very interesting information about the caves. Comparing it to the other tours out there this is clearly the best. Small numbers of kayaks, good quality kayaks and brilliant guides. Don’t be tempted by the big group tours , go for Brotherootz instead! Thank you guys.
