    The staff & crew were very professional, polite & very helpful. They all spoke more than 1 language which also helped. The dolphins we actually got to see,, however, as they were smaller ones & need time to grow & develop, they weren't ready to be jumping in & out of the sea. The Benagil caves are breath taking; such an amazing piece of astonising observation of how Earth works! A truly amazing trip & experience.

    Can’t recommend this tour enough! Staff were absolutely fantastic really engaging and funny. More importantly they made us feel really safe and welcome. They couldn’t have done more. We were lucky to see dolphins which was fantastic but the cave tour was the highlight showing the beauty of the area.

    I have to start by saying the your guides were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and entertaining. The amount of time you get sightseeing was definitely with the cost of the experience and if I ever return to Portugal, I would most likely give it another go.

    It was very fun to go fast on the boat and we saw so much of the coast and different caves and rock formations. The commentary was good and the staff were very friendly. Being able to swim in the sea was great. We didn't see any dolphins but it hardly detracted from the experience as there was so much to see anyway! Good value for money - would definitely recommend.
