It was really great, they are polyglot!;) Thank you for the kindness and clarity of the explanations!
It's a shame, because I drove at high tide.

Do not drive at high tide, as no cave could be visited inside. Captain was going too fast, in my opinion. Were completely wet after the tour, as if we had bathed with things.
I loved it!

The guide Tomás was excellent, the tour was beautiful, I just didn't like the shuttle benches because I found them unpleasant. The captain was great too!
See the caves

Beautiful sites. Good way to experience the caves and coastline. It was crowded on the boat and if you are not on the edge you cannot get pictures that do not have people in them.
Offroad tour.

One of the best experiences we had on our trip. The boat was comfortable (only 11 people) and the captain was great, ensuring everyone got good views and taking us deep into several caves and through narrow openings. The guide, Tiago, was excellent. He was full of information and made the tour fun without being corny. He talked with everyone in the boat (3 different languages in our group) and made sure we all had a good time. Plus a full 2 hours on the water- so much fun! I highly recommend this outing.
Well it seems we booked...

Well it seems we booked with Seadventure but they ended up meeting us (departure 11am), driving us to another marina, we waited there until almost noon then went with another boat operator - Royal Nautic . The actual tour, skipper and captain were fantastic but just chaotic for the first hour.
Never did the tour

The tour guide and boat driver were fantastic. It was a windy day with rough sea conditions and it made all the difference to be doing the tour in a Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB), much safer.
Brilliant tour, informative and beautiful

We went last week as a family, the captain and the tour guide were amazing. The tour guide (missed his name) was very funny, also very knowledgable. They kept checking my kids (8&9) and other passengers were okay throughout. Showed us beautiful views and history, and cared for everyone’s wellbeing. Would really recommend!
