Very affordable tour! Value for money 👍 - Great experience! Fantastic guide who made the day so interesting and rewarding! We were lucky that the "group" that day was just me and my husband! The guide was so nice and responsive, it was like hiking with an old friend.Many beautiful pictures and memories from a very nice day!

Beautiful Views - Clare was lovely. Our family had a great time. The views were amazing and the time on the beach was relaxing. The hike was beautiful and easy. I was not scared of the cliffs at all, and I am not a fan of heights. I felt safe.

Amazing experience at Benagil caves with Claire - We had an amazing tour with Claire! She was lovely, very attentive to us. Everything is taken care of and the organisation is perfect. Highly recommend if you want to visit the caves but don’t have a car to access them which was our case!

Unforgettable - An absolutely amazing tour, we got the opportunity to travel across beautiful cliffs with a thoughtful guide who was very knowledgeable about the area. There were some extras that made the tour feel so much more personal. We stopped to see some cats by the cliffs and Claire took some lovely photos for me and my boyfriend as well as recommeding a lovely spot to get some fresh orange juice and providing us masks for snorkeling. The final beach we stopped at was surrounded by stunning cliffs and clear waters. The hike was not too strainious at all, would be possible for beginners and you may even spot a lizard like we did! Thankyou again, we had an unforgettable time! :)

This hike was the perfect way to start my day - Claire gave an amazing tour. I had a great time. She was knowledgeable, took me to some wonderful spots to take photos, and was very personable. I loved the entire experience. Starting the hike in the morning was perfect because it wasn’t too hot or crowded and the beach time afterwards was relaxing. She even gave me an umbrella to sit under for shade. I’m so happy that I chose this experience. It was the perfect way to start my day.

Failure to comply with contract - We hired this tour because the guide spoke Spanish, and ruled out other options for this reason.
We went with two young children and did not enjoy the explanations.
The guide tried everything he could That's why I put two points) but I think it should have been warned before and not at the same time of picking us up, because we were in time to cancel and it's not a cheap excursion.
I think we should have been advised of the circumstance and given the option to decide, and at least get in touch to apologize.
Otherwise the spectacular sites, but it is not an excursion for children because it is very walkable and hot summer
And by the way the caves and Marinha beach better by canoe, kayak or paddle... that even if they say it is not allowed to get into Benagil cave... they all got in.
