Great tour and equipment. Knew how to avoid the crowds as much as possible, kept us safe kayaking and made it fun. Although I never received the pictures that are meant to be part of the trip, and when I emailed to chase I was ignored.

Don’t pass this tour up! Book with this company; you will not regret it!!! Unbelievable kayaking tour with Caio! It was a small group, so we never felt like a herd being pushed through the tour. It was personalized with pictures to capture our experience. Caio did an unbelievable job taking pictures of us as we kayaked through the caves. We even stopped in an area where we exited our kayaks and took more unbelievable pics.

We did the sunrise tour in the summer with our family (3 children: 19, 18 and 14) with Brotherootz. The men had it together just fine. They guided us well, both before we went into the water and during the kayak tour. It was a beautiful, active trip where we visited 5 caves. Everywhere explanation was given and along the way photos were taken that were sent the same day. We all enjoyed ourselves.

Our kayaking and SUP tour with Benagil Kayak & SUP was an absolute highlight of our trip to Portugal. Exploring the stunning caves and coastline from the water is an unforgettable experience. A massive part of what made our tour so fantastic was our guide, Poncho. He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and made sure everyone in our group felt safe and had a great time. His enthusiasm was contagious! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Algarve. It's a fun, active, and breathtaking way to see the famous Benagil Cave. Highly recommended!

The drive to this base site is about 40 min from Lagos. Once you arrive, they provide you with your helmet and life jacket. There are zero facilities in this location so be prepared. After a long set of steps down, you start at the top of the cliff and must climb down through a narrow enclosed channel in the rock with very steep stone steps. Once on the beach, there is some instruction then over to the kayaks. It was mid October and the surf was substantial - honestly it was a bit scary getting out into the slightly calmer ocean water. The views and the caves are stunning. But there are a ton of motor boats, yachts - you name it - all over the place so it is not serene. The surf was too rough for us to spend much time in the 2 caves we stopped into. Our guide Simon was fantastic, and we learned a lot. It was a gorgeous day, and we thoroughly enjoyed our 2+ hours with Simon.

Our guide Simone was great. He told a lot about the history of the Algarve and organized it very well. He tried to avoid the large groups of ships. Unfortunately, these are the biggest disadvantage of the tour. There are permanent ships entering and leaving the caves. You can't really enjoy it.

We had a great time on this kayak tour with Edgas. Photos were great and we got to see a ton of cool caves and fish on the tour.
