    The whole trip was exceptional. Edwardo was just awesome. He was always trying to tie the history with little story and it was very refreshing. I would strongly recommend this trip.

    Great experience

    John_S, May 2026
    Wonderful experience, great tour guide Caio. We are not really in to hiking but we had amazing time and fun. Totally worthwhile. You can experience the Caves and the beaches any other way.

    Enjoyable Benagil Caves tour

    Edgardo_D, Sept 2025
    Caio, our tour guide was amazing and made the whole tour very interesting and engaging. Bit of a challenging walk through the Benagil caves but I would say it’s moderate difficulty. Worth tne price of admission.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback! And thank you for coming along with us on our trip.

    Explore caves with Caio

    Judit_M, Dec 2024
    We had an exciting yet relaxing day full of beautiful sights with our very nice guide, Caio. It was a sunny day spent with hiking and exploring caves feeling like sorounded by family. Caio even jumped off from a cliff to do us right. Highly recommended.

    Response from Host, Jan 2025

    Thank you for joining us on this beautiful sunny day! We are happy to know you and your family enjoyed your time with us. Maybe next time you will jump too?

    Amazing

    Deep_K, Nov 2024
    Rapheal made the journey and the places we visit much more exciting. He was friendly, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. He even offered us umbrella's and towels for the beach trip which was a more than 5 star deserving gesture.

    Response from Host, Nov 2024

    Thank you for your kind words. We are very happy you enjoyed our trip!

    Beautiful trip to caves, seven hanging valleys and algar seco!

    sue_r, Oct 2024
    Raphaël was an amazing, informative and funny guide! He kept us going at a great pace and made sure we posed for photos ( which he took) at the most picturesque spots on our route! This tour was one of the highlights of our trip! Raphaël even provided the ladies with tissues as he indicated there was often non in the wc!

    Guide Raphael

    Danielle_T, Oct 2024
    Excellent guide Raphael so kind and generous and safe . Would totally do another solo tour again, a well organised thoughtful day with all areas covered and a very friendly guide

    Amazing Views

    Sean_L, Sept 2024
    The views on the cliffs overlooking the ocean were beautiful. The caves were awesome to explore. The only downfall was the beach. Full of stinky seaweed

    Amazing tour!!

    Jamie_W, Aug 2024
    We had a wonderful time on this tour today! The guides were amazing, the stops were all beautiful, and the free time at the beach was perfect. The highlight of our trip! The only bummer was that the tour didn't actually go into the bengali cave and we booked this tour specifically because we thought it did. Only boats are allowed in at this time whoch we didn't know, so that was a disappointment, however the tour was still wonderful and I would highly recommend it!

    Good tour

    Yasmin_C, Aug 2024
    Great tour, we had so much fun on the hike discovering the different caves of the area. The vans are very clean and the ride is comfortable. Rafa and Sebastian were very nice guides and took their time to explain many details to us. We were not able to see the benagil cave from inside due to new regulations.

    Get ready to have a good time!

    Jessica_S, Aug 2024
    I did this tour with my sister and it was perfect. We had Caio and Paulo as our guides and they made the experience so much fun. I was nervous to go cliff jumping but Paulo held my hand the entire time down. These two guys are truly the funniest and most loveable. They will definitely make your experience memorable!

    Amazing 10/10 Would...

    Katie_R, Aug 2024
    Amazing 10/10 Would recommend for solo travelers, the guides were incredible and it was the perfect amount of time for each place.

    Definitely book this trip!

    Jessica_F, Aug 2024
    Wow!! What a fantastic tour!! Caio & Daniel made this such an amazing day. The scenery is spectacular & something you definitely need to see. The day was well paced, allowing time to hike, swim, lay on the beach, or even jump off a cliff. There were so many highlights I can’t decide what I liked the most. If you book this tour & end up with Caio & Daniel, you won’t regret it. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

    Great tour of 3 beautiful locations

    Kathlyn_I, Aug 2024
    We had a great day. We were in 2 vans and our driver didn't speak English well. Other driver was the guide, his English was ok. I would have appreciated an itinerary as we really didn't know what we were doing at any given moment. I had flip flops and trail shoes and we were carrying beach towels, and we didn't know ahead of time if we were going to a beach or going for a hike.

    Best portugal experience!

    Meeta_S, July 2024
    Daniel and Caio (not sure if i spelled that right) were such amazing tour guides, it made the experience so much better! We loved getting to see the algarve coast and they were such involved guides, always willing to take pictures, share stories, and were so helpful! Would definitely recommend this excursion :)

    Amazing adventure

    Anastasiia_Z, July 2024
    Benagail cave was amazing, looks bigger and dipper in real life than on the photos. As well the tour had many adventures, thanks a lot for that to our guides.

    A great Algarve coast tour

    Steve_M, July 2024
    This was a fantastic tour. Our guide Caio made it a great experience for our family… especially the cliff diving! The beaches are superb and there is plenty of time to swim. Definitely the best group tour I have done. Not to be missed if you are in Faro.

    Marvelous Experience

    Nadege_D, June 2024
    What a great experience we had with our guide RAFAEL !! I had a marvelous day. He was so attentive and had a great way to introduce the next steps of the excursion. He even showed us a special spot at Praia Marinha.

    Fun times

    Danielle_S, May 2024
    Amazing tour guide and tour. The caves and beaches were absolutely gorgeous. We really enjoyed the beautiful sites. Our tour guide was really cool and laid back. Definitely worth it! Bring your water/swim shoes for parts of the excursion. Also a bookbag for a towel, sunblock, and shades.

    12/10

    Holly_D, Apr 2024
    Okay, I highly highly recommend this tour! Eduardo was our guide and was 12/10. It was a tour with 8 people total so the intimate nature of the tour was optimal. We went the caves, beaches and many other areas! It was relaxing but we still got the hike and take epic pictures. This was the highlight of our Portugal trip!!

    Nature Wonders!

    Shaoquan_L, Mar 2024
    I think Benagil Cave, Marinha Beach and Algar Seco are the most beautiful places on earth. The trip provide us a efficient way to visit all of them in just one day from Faro. Our tour guide Eduardo Guimaraes is very nice and efficient. His performance of jumping into water from the cliff was a little bit scary, but wonderful.

    Great experience

    Vishnuraj_R, Mar 2024
    Eduardo was. amazing, felt like a local friend taking us to places and explaining us things. He was very knowledgeable and made sure his team is safe during the trip, at the same doing little adventures. Saw a great gesture from him picking up any trash in beaches.

    Definitely an ADVENTURE tour! Excellent!

    Janisha_S, Feb 2024
    Really easy to book this tour via Viator. Meeting place was easy to find as well. Eduardo was our guide for the day. Just our family of three plus another couple. Eduardo was brilliant with knowledge of each place we went to and very engaging as a host. One of our stops was closed due to bad weather so Eduardo took us another little spot to see instead. He offered to take some really good photos as well! We hiked, bouldering, walked, jumped and saw some incredible sights! This tour so brilliant if you want a bit more activity/ adventure rather than just a regular coach tour. Wear comfortable trainers for sure and bring water (there are plenty of stops to buy drinks and food as well). Also bring your beach wear as even in February the sea was lovely! Thank you to Eduardo, credit to the tour company for his passion!

    Must Do in the Algarve

    Ariel_L, Dec 2023
    I visited in Faro for a few days and really wanted to see the rest of the coastline and this tour was the perfect solution. It provided transportation without me having to rent a car or Uber on my own, but Kyle gave so much context of the region, and it was a great way to meet other travellers! The scenery is absolutely spectacular and this tour was the best way to see it all.

    Just awesome!!! Incredible!!!

    Tarifur_C, Dec 2023

    Temidayo_F, Oct 2023
    Lovely day spent with Caio who was a great guide around the Benagil caves and Cavoeiro. Would highly recommend doing this

    Don’t miss this tour

    Carly_H, Oct 2023
    Even though there were restricting going into the cave it was still a great day, thanks to Victor for being a great guide!

    Beautiful

    Faith_A, July 2023
    We had such a lovely experience on this trip. Eduardo was very knowledgeable and looked after the group well. I was a bit nervous about the swimming but he makes you feel very comfortable and talks you through everything step by step. It’s so worth it to see the caves as they are beautiful! Would definitely recommend!

    Response from Host, Aug 2023
