Visiting grutas in south Portugal - It was just as expected. Wonderful time over the coast of south Portugal. Algarve is an incredible place to visit. Benagil was crowed. I honestly enjoyed Gruta do Presidente and Gruta do Paraíso a bit better. They are smaller but have their own charm.

Highly recommended☆ - This was a great boat trip to explore the caves of the Algarve and learn some of it's history. The skippers were excellent and very friendly. We felt safe and secure at all times. The caves and cliffs are magnificent and well worth seeing this way.
I would highly recommend this company, as I had used another on a previous visit which was disappointing. This tour was excellent.... even two teenagers were impressed and happily occupied for a couple of hours! A pleasant family afternoon spent at sea♡.

Another perspective of the beustiful Atlantic coast! - I wenn with my Hausband. Did. Not have too Great Expectations. But was not disappointed, was definitely worth the money, well organised, modern safe boats, nice captain and guide, tried to explain the whole tour. Great experience to see the coast from a different perspective and the beautiful caves.
Very crowded with a lot of boats, but our guides did their best to give us a good experience! Thank you Miquel, Miquel and Sarah!

Absolutely wonderful! - The tour is too beautiful! We visited 15 cellars in the Algarve, and the ones in Paraíso and Benagil are AMAZING!
The guide told stories and legends throughout the tour, really cool!
The Algarve Coast is simply wonderful.
It's SO worth it!

Definitely on my list of sites to see in the Algarves! - It’s unfortunate this trip got cancelled due to the waves. They tried to reschedule for the next morning, which would have worked out since my flight was in the evening but wanted to charge an additional $60 Euros since we were the only tour. I feel they should’ve just taken us anyway.
