Fabulous trip - We are a family of 3 with a 7 year old and we loved this trip. This is our second trip and no doubt we will be back again next time we are in Lagos.

Last Minute Plans - AMAZING!! Last minute plans on our last day and they did everything they could to get us on the last boat we are so appreciative! Luis and Mariana were our awesome guides. The caves are beautiful and we were very lucky to see dolphins too!🐬🤗

Fantastic experience by the caves of Lagos. - It has been a fantastic experience, both the very friendly and pleasant Guide and the "rally driver" who carried the boat with those rapids that he has made and that has made us enjoy very much. Very nice caves, definitely we had a great time.

Very average experience - Very average experience. We made the 1:15 excursion to the Ponta da Piedade caves. The places visited are beautiful and worth seeing. However, the visit time was not respected. We came back 20 minutes early, so the ride lasted 55 minutes instead of 1h15. This time could have been used to better enjoy the caves we were just flying over.
The passage through the caves was very fast, while the boat turned around. Hardly time to take some pictures. The Guide was friendly but not very involved, we would have liked to know more about the places visited. The captain seemed very anxious to return.
I recommend people who want to visit this place to choose a kayak rental to take full advantage of each place and not be fooled over time.
Paying 1h15 visit and having only 55 minutes without being able to enjoy the place is very disappointing.

Average experience - Pretty average experience. We took the 1h15 excursion to the caves of Ponta da Piedade. The caves were splendid, however, the duration of the visit was not respected. We came back 20 minutes early compared to the planned visit time (so the excursion lasted 55 minutes instead of the 1h15 planned). Moreover, the guides did not seem very involved, they seemed rather eager to return to the agency. The time spent in the caves was very short, we barely had time to take pictures (forward of the boat then reverse, and it was over). I don’t quite understand this because we were well on time, since we came back very early. I think the best option to visit the caves is to rent kayaks, to make sure you don't get timing level and fully enjoy the place. Rating of 3 stars because despite the very average organization, the scenery was beautiful.

Duration less than 40 mins of a 75 min trip! - We’ve used Days of Adventure for our boat trips since coming to the Algarve 8 years ago and always had a great experience.
I don’t know if it was the time of day (17.30) but the staff member couldn’t get us out and back quick enough - we ended up with less than 40 minutes of an 75 minute trip. There was very little to no commentary on what we were looking at - fortunately we’d done this trip before - just a quick zoom along and back back to base!
Luckily, there are several other companies we shall be trying after this!

Boat with super loud music annoying other people - I was visiting Lagos’ grottos and this boat was around. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful but this company had super loud music - they ruin the experience of other people!
