Benagil and Marina adventure

5.00If you're visiting the Algarve, this tour is a must. Experiencing Benagil and Marina Beach with their breathtaking sunset and late-afternoon colors was amazing. Arthur is an excellent guide who knows a lot about the rock formations and the history of the area. He answered all of my questions. It was beautiful to see the old shell formations, like fossils, on the rocks. I had enough time to relax and take pictures at Marina Beach and Algar Seco. Arthur made us feel safe and enhanced our tourist experience by offering a very informative yet relaxing tour. The vast sea is something I will remember for a long time. Thank you, Arthur, for showing me such beautiful colors!

5.00A beautiful hike worthwhile. Aaron, our guide, was great and very friendly! He gave several very interesting explanations about the fauna and flora throughout the activity and made sure to integrate everyone into the group by talking with each person. And not to mention his photography skills, which are up to the task!

1.00After they refused to take us, we actually were thankful. We used Uber to get to benagil caves and got kayak tours (there is a boat option also) straight away. We then uber'd to a great lunch place. Then Uber to Lagos caves. After walking the trails at lagos. We got a boat tour at Lagos just past the lighthouse that was so amazing! All of this was so much more spectacular that this tour description (and cheaper). We were on our own schedule, saw so much more, and likely had better food. I can write this review because this tour refused to refund even a %. We indeed missed one line of their fine print- our daughter was a few months from the age requirement.

5.00The excursion was truly great. Edo did everything to ensure we had a good day, and safety was a priority. If you do not feel up to doing something, that is okay. The guide will explain many things about the spots you will see, and additionally, he provides tips for hidden spots.
100% recommend, great experience!
