We were very concerned about our daughter travelling solo to a wedding in Lagos, Nigeria and are very thankful to have discovered Rika Trips. They responded quickly and were so helpful. They organised someone to meet our daughter at the airport who offered fantastic support in an overwhelming environment. She reached her hotel without any difficulties. We were so pleased with the outcome that we booked their service for her return to the airport. Would definitely recommend.Rika also recommended a payment system that felt safe and worked well (but allow a day or two to set it up).
Amazing trip - holiday highlight.

Book early in your holiday as your trip may be postponed due to rough sea conditions. We booked for Tuesday and went on Friday. Viator emailed our new passes as they were notified by Blue Fleet office in Lagos - located at train station. It was a truly memorable experience.
Fun in the choppy choppy

Excellent, fun trip. Bruno and Antoni were both excellent guides. We went out in somewhat choppy waters and the two were very safety conscious whilst not minimising the fun. Highly recommend.
Great boat ride

We enjoyed the 1 hour boat ride. The captain got us into lots of little caves. The guide told us some history of the area and the names of the beaches we were passing. There weren’t too many other boats and kayaks in the water which made the excursion even more pleasant.
Great tour!

Oh wow, don’t miss this experience when coming to Lagos Portugal. The rock formations the beauty unbelievable. Lots of fun fax and information about the area. Not to mention the closeness to the grotto that you get to experience with this adventure.
Fun in the Lagos Sun

We did 2 trips with this company. Was impressed overall with the friendliness, ease of communication on WhatsApp and ease of switching things around when our trip got canceled due to rough seas. However, I do wonder when they were planning on telling us that our Piedade trip was going to be a coastal tour only (no caves) due to rough seas. The lady in the office had told us they were still waiting to confirm this. But then a tourist told us he was told definitely no caves. So then they start calling names for the tour with no mention that it’s coastal only. Luckily this tourist had told us the scoop so we were able to change to another day. Makes me wonder if they were just going to wait till we are all in the boat to mention the no caves part. The trip to benagil is really nice but why use this type of boat? I didn’t realize how rough and bumpy it would be. I know they want to get everyone there quickly and get as many people per day as possible, but I’ve been on many speed boats all over the world and most of them are not the style with the straddle seats and not this bumpy, so it would definitely be possible to get there quickly without giving your guests back pain. If you have back or neck issues or are prone to them you probably should avoid. I had to ice my back and neck that evening but luckily the pain resolved the next day. Going to benagil wasn’t so bad but on the return we got slammed down onto the water over and over. My back wasn’t happy. Still worth it to see some more of the coastline and several caves. Guide was amazing and super friendly.

It was a well organized boat trip in a small group. The crew was very nice and funny. It was also great that the boats were not all in one bay at once, but gradually went in and out in stages, so that you could also take pictures nicely without constantly having other boats on it. All in all, definitely a worthwhile boat trip with spectacular natural scenery!
