Wonderful experience! - Amazing experience! Daniel was a wonderful and knowledgeable guide!! I loved this tour! Their team is great! It was an experience I’ll never forget and so happy to have gone through this tour agency! They keep you in small groups. Daniel was always there to help if we needed and even sent us photos after the tour! It was beautiful and we started from a small beach! No need to take a boat ride before getting out to kayak!

Fantastic kayaking tour! Not difficult and so enjoyable! - My partner and I had an amazing trip with this tour! Highly recommend! We had Manuel and Alex as our local guides. So fun and informative. We had plenty of time at the caves. They even assisted with taking photos of us without us asking! Definitely go kayaking with this tour! Loved it all!

A refreshing experience during the hot summer hours - Great tour, with very friendly and attentive guides. The visit of certain caves is only possible for kayaks and very small boats: we enjoyed these moments out of time, and out of the crowds... We recommend!

Best activity in the Algarve by far! - During our 9-day trip to the Algarve, we did a ton of activities, but this kayak tour by the Benagil Caves was hands down the best. We were 11 friends on holiday so good trips were a must! We got to the spot with plenty of time, which was great because the beach was absolutely gorgeous. We walked down this dirt track to a small cove near the Benagil caves, and the views of the surrounding hills were amazing. The staff were super friendly right from the start. One of my friends cut her foot on the way down, and they quickly found some plasters to help her out. Our guide, Manel, was awesome—so helpful and friendly. We thought two hours might be too long, but it was actually perfect. After a quick and informative briefing, we got into the water to start our tour. Manel took us through a bunch of caves, explaining how they formed and some cool history. We even played a fun game of guessing what animals the rock pillars looked like. We saw many caves, not just the famous Benagil ones. When we got to the Benagil caves, Manel helped us off our kayaks so we could explore. He offered to take pictures of our group in the cave and by the rocks, and he did a great job with the photos! After the tour, we went back to the beach and stayed for a few more hours to dry off and soak up the last bits of sun. It was the perfect end to our day. I totally recommend this tour. The staff were super friendly and accommodating, the views were amazing, and the whole experience really ended our trip on a high note. Thanks to everyone for making our visit unforgettable!

Recommended!!! - Very good excursion. The instructor explaining the operation was very funny. Damian and Manel very good guides. They were explaining curious facts as we went along and took us to places where there were no one or few people. They also took pictures of us so we wouldn’t have to worry about taking out our phones and sent them later. 100% recommended.
