What are people saying about Lagos

Lindsey_H, Aug 2026

A must do trip!

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!

Half Day Cruise to Ponta da Piedade with Lunch and Drinks

Jennifer_B, Aug 2026

Wonderful kid friendly excursion!

We’ve been on multiple boat tours in different countries and this was by far our best experience. The crew was incredibly knowledgeable and spoke fluent English as well as Portuguese. They were playful and eager to entertain our twin 7yr olds. The length of the trip was perfect. Gorgeous scenic sea scapes and cliffs followed by a lengthy anchor time which provided plenty of time to swim and relax. Note that the water was COLD, lol. We had yet to visit the beaches in the Algarve yet so we were a bit unprepared but that did not stop the kids! They also provided 2 floating rafts off the back of the boat which made for a great swim rest and tanning bed. The beach was within swimming distance and several people are the swim to the hidden private beach. Very cool. A snack plate of meat, cheese, and bread paired well with the open bar of beer and wine. The kids enjoyed unlimited soda as well. Lunch was grilled chicken, salad, and chips. All the food was of great quality and value. We’d happily do this trip again!! Highly recommend 💜

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!!

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.

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.

Lagos ponta piedade tour

We had the best tour, captain Jack and his co-captain were excellent at giving us the most incredible information with a sense of humor. They spoke Portuguese, Spanish, English and French. Took us to the most breathtaking sites of Lagos. In my opinion, they were the friendliest people we encountered that whole day. I'd definitely recommend. The tour was just over 1hr long amd we thought the price was more than reasonable for that length of time.

Ponta da Piedade Caves Kayak Tour in Lagos + Snorkelling

Terrie_A, Jun 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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great tour, but only for strong swimmers

Great tour and a beautiful way to see the coastline! As a solo traveller I was quite anxious about how’d I’d go, but the company had single kayaks and it was fine! I went on the 9.30am tour thinking it would be quite and cool, but it was peak hour with lots of boats, making it a bit precarious with all the kayaks. Overall a great tour but best suited to people who was strong swimmers and confident on the water. I even made friends with my group and we watched the sunset altogether!
