5.00What an amazing experience! The speedboat ride to the Benagil Caves was exciting, fun, and absolutely breathtaking. The crew was fantastic-friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel safe and welcome throughout the trip. The caves themselves were stunning, but the highlight was the unexpected bonus on the way: a school of dolphins swimming alongside the boat! Seeing them in their natural habitat was truly unforgettable and made an already incredible excursion even more special. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Algarve. A perfect combination of adventure, beautiful scenery, and unforgettable wildlife encounters!
Wonderful experience!

WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE

1.00Worst experience of my life. Honestly one of the most traumatic and irresponsible tourism experiences I’ve ever had. This company clearly prioritises making money over basic passenger safety and comfort. They took us out on the water in conditions that never should have gone ahead. It was beyond rough. People were screaming, crying, terrified, and genuinely thought we were going to capsize at points. We were being slammed around so violently that everyone onboard was soaked repeatedly and submerged by waves over and over again. My mum ended up fracturing her back from how rough the ride was, which is absolutely unacceptable. My iPhone was completely water damaged because of the amount of water coming into the boat. There was no proper warning about just how dangerous or extreme the conditions were going to be, and no real consideration for the wellbeing of passengers once we were out there. The most concerning part was the attitude of the staff. There seemed to be little to no empathy or acknowledgement of how distressed people were. Instead of checking on passengers or even canceling the trip, it felt like the trip just continued regardless. I would never recommend this company to anyone, especially families, older people, or anyone who assumes safety would come first. This experience completely ruined part of our trip and could have ended much worse. Please seriously reconsider before booking.
A great experience

5.00A uniquely fast drive to Benagil; enough time for the actual sights on the way; unobtrusive, knowledgeable commentary from the tour guide. A very nice experience.
