What are people saying about Lagos

Private Catamaran Tour Lagos Coast and Ponta da Piedade

Vanessa_B, Aug 2026

Fantastic Experience

We had an absolutely amazing 3-hour private sail on this gorgeous catamaran, and it was without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip to the Algarve. In fact, our boys said it was the highlight of the entire holiday! The boat is brand new, sparkling clean, incredibly spacious, and beautifully presented. We were lucky enough to have a break in the rainy weather and enjoyed clear skies while we sailed, with absolutely stunning scenery all around us. Drinks were included, along with a lovely cheese and ham platter, which was the perfect touch. The boys had a fantastic time jumping into the sea, and it was wonderful to see them having so much fun. The crew were professional, warm and incredibly friendly, making us feel completely relaxed and welcome from the moment we stepped on board. Everything was just perfect. We honestly had the best time and couldn’t recommend this experience highly enough. It was a truly special part of our Algarve trip, and we would absolutely do it again.

This trip was fantastic! The staff were friendly, informative and funny too! Comfortable padded seats and fantastic views of the caves, beaches, sights and even a bit of speed! Our whole family enjoyed it....Ranging from age 15 to 74. Well worth the money!

Harlee_L, Aug 2026

This tour was soooo much...

This tour was soooo much fun. I really didn’t know what to expect but it was blown out of the park. The staff is so kind and helpful, the boat was nice and spacious. There’s a bar, top level, bottom, inside. I loved how they allocated time to swim; that was the highlight for me. Overall they all went above and beyond. Shoutout to my girl Fifi for being the best.

Combo Adventure: Benagil Caves Tour & Dolphins from Lagos

Liana_W, Aug 2026

Fun outing!

It was a great time! I had read reviews that someone hadn’t seen dolphins (can happen) and was a little nervous as my daughter was really looking forward to it but we lucked out and saw a family of 3 right up close. Was incredible! The caves were very cool to witness as well! FYI the front of the boat can really bounce when hitting some waves - was enjoyed by myself and my thrill seeking daughter. My young son didn’t, he was a little scared but rode back in the seating area and enjoyed the ride. Our guide was knowledgeable and funny. Would recommend!!

Boat trip to the grottos at Ponta da Piedade, Lagos

Justine_S, Aug 2026

Brilliant experience with kids

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Knowledgeable, interesting, and funny guide and fantastic driver who could expertly give the best views of the caves. We are travelling in the Algarve with kids (3&5) and would have struggled to access some of the more beautiful beaches because of long staircases so this was the perfect way to see the sights. Felt really magical and fun and safe - as well as being brilliant value for money. Highly recommend.

Loved it!

It was excellent - travelled with teenagers and they both loved it very much. Our guide was very experienced, provided all information about the location and the activity, was monitoring the group all the time to make sure no one was left behind and that everyone was enjoying the experience. 10/10 - super recommend!

Highlight of our Vacation!!

This was an incredible experience!! It was fun and exciting, and our tour guides pointed out so many different things along the way! We went into a lot more caves than just Benagil and the drivers made the ride so fun! We even saw dolphins! Definitely a highlight of our entire trip to Portugal! We would highly recommend books with Days of Adventure!!

Luxury Private Boat to Ponta de Piedade + paddleboarding

Arika_K, Aug 2026

Perfect experience

I was traveling with my husband, brother and sister in law. We booked the boat for the whole day and had an incredible time. Charlie is the owner of the boats and he is friendly, warm and easy to communicate with. You can tell he really wants you to have a good time! His boats are well kept and includes standup paddle boards. The weather was perfect. Our skipper was Ivan, he was so wonderful and accommodating. He had great knowledge of the area and took us to the caves explaining all of the names and stories behind them. He is an experienced fisherman and skipper and we were so grateful to have him as our guide! We felt safe and truly had so much fun. We drank, ate, swam, danced and laughed. Would do this again and again. Probably the best day of our whole trip.

Small Group Kayak Tour to the Ponta da Piedade Caves – Lagos

MorganRingdahl, July 2026

This tour was amazing! We...

This tour was so much fun! We went to several different spots that all provided great rock formations and caves. We went on the morning tour before the sun was too intense. Plan to bring a dry bag or water proof phone case to keep your personal belongings dry on the kayak. You can leave your personal belongings on the boat but if you want phone to take pictures, there isn’t a “safe” dry spot on the kayak. Wear a swim suit as you will get wet while sitting in the kayak. I would highly recommend this tour to see the most amazing views from the water!

2 Hours Private Ponta da Piedade and Lagos Coast Tour

Alan_R, July 2026

Exceptional Experience

Our private boat tour was the absolute highlight of our trip! From the moment we were greeting be the staff we knew we were about to have a special night as they were incredibly friendly and accommodating, with special shout out to our boat captain Tomas for going above and beyond to fulfill every single request we had with a smile. He was also very informative and provided a lot of rich history to add to the depth of the stunning views around us. The boat itself was spotless, creating the perfect setting to relax. Being able to play our own music added to the emotional layer of the voyage. As we cruised, time seemed to stand still. The views of along the way (including Praia do Camilo and Ponta da Piedade) were absolutely exceptional, but the stories Tomas shared during each iconic landmark deepened our experience and appreciation. If you are looking for an authentic, intimate, and perfectly curated experience in Lagos, look no further. We are so grateful for the hospitality and the beautiful memories. Highly recommended!

Ponta da Piedade Caves Kayak Tour in Lagos + Snorkelling

Terrie_A, June 2026

Excellent tour!

This was a beautiful tour. Kayaking on the ocean is sure different than kayaking in Ohio. Our guide Pedro was a gem. Very personable and knowledgeable about the sights. The beach stop was nice (take a Turkish towel—lightweight and repels sand) but since it was on the return part of the trip, a cervejo would have been nice. I’ll bet there rules against that, though. They offered snorkeling but I just enjoyed a short sit on the beach because I’m wimpy and thought the water was too cold. The tow back was a welcome surprise. I do recommend a wet/sun shirt. It’s chilly and sunny all at the same time. I had a regular type half zip pullover on and I did not get hot at all, but to did get very wet. All in all—excellent and I would recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
