At the last minute this company Algarve Charters changed our reservation and we ended up on a boat with a lot more people than I expected. It was not the experience we paid for or what we expected when we signed up.
Lovely boat, excellent crew, and a very chill way to spend an evening in the Algarve. Highly recommended.

Antonio thank you for your lovely comment. We are glad that you enjoyed the tour with us thank you for recommending us. Hope to see you next time. Algarve Charters
Our tour with Yacht Finismar was fabulous! We did experience a date change as the boat was undergoing maintenance however this ended up working out better for us. The team was very quick to get us on the next available. Pick up location is accessible by walk (30 min) from Old Town with gorgeous views on the way. Upon getting to the Yacht we were welcomed by very kind staff. Ricardo was our tour guide who was very sweet, comedic, and knowledgeable. The captain was also great company that kept us feeling safe. All the views we experienced were unforgettable. I do wish we were able to see inside Benagil however this is now only accessible by kayak it seems. We had a fun stop for a swim, saw many historical spots, and enjoyed a cup of champagne on the soothing ride back. We did not want to get off this boat! Only warning is if it is windy and you aren’t up for it… don’t sit in the front. best seat in the house in our opinions however you will be drenched on the way. Thank you Ricardo & Captain! A tour to definitely remember!!!!

Abigail wow, thank you! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed your visit. Your support makes all the difference — can’t wait to welcome you back! Algarve Charters
Capitan Renato and First Mate Rafael did an amazing job showing us the beautiful coast of Algarve. Very knowledgeable and with an impressive sailing skill to take us safely around Benagil rocks and back. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience. Rafael kept our drinks full and described the landscape and scenery. The captain (forgot his name!) was very entertaining and even let our kids hold the wheel. Great fun and great value for money !

Thank you for your lovely comment. We are glad that you enjoyed the tour with us. Hope to see you next time. Kind regards, Algarve Charters
The tour operator gave us the wrong address at the marina and would not even ask the captain to wait 2 minutes as we raced to the boat. Won’t refund us our money. Rude. Abrasive. Ruined our holiday.

Thank you for choosing us. Is unfortunate that you felt that way, on the confirmation and in your ticket has our address. We ask our customers to check-in 30m before departure so give time for us to help the customers to navigate (since most our customers are tourist and don’t know the roads) and reach our office. We appreciate all forms of feedback, good or bad, so we can improve in the future. Algarve Charters
Highly recommend this trip with Capitan and Raphael. The boat was spotless, and we had lots of information about the different spots we sailed past. In my opinion, a much better way to see the Benagil Cave without lots of people, as well as other equally beautiful arches and rock formations. The best way to spend an afternoon. My only regret is I wish I did the bbq for a longer trip! Obrigada :-)

The crew were brilliant and friendly! They let us play our own music and we stopped off for a dip in the ocean. The bar was also very well received and I would highly recommend if you want a beautiful, fun, informative experience on the algarve coast.
