Choose Xplore to explore the caves! - Xplore Group was wonderful! They were so kind and helpful throughout the entire adventure. There is a parking lot right next to where you meet the tour and is easy to park there. HIGHLY recommend. Alex, Alex and David were very kind and welcoming. Alex even helped get a shoe back that floated away while getting out of the kayak.

Benagil Cave Kayaking, so fun! - We had an incredible time doing the Benagil Cave kayaking tour! Nuno and Ricardo showed us the amazing caves (algars), fossils and landmarks along the tour. It was absolutely beautiful! Would love to go again with this company!

Go with this tour crew! - Our guide and the team of hosts were exceptional. Recardo and his colleagues were welcoming from the start and had us comfortably placed with vests and waterproof bags within minutes of our arrival. These folks have to work with every level of kayaker and i was impressed with their approach. I was a first time kayaker and I was made to feel safe, confident and best of all, engaged in having a great time throughout. These amazing caves need to be seen and experienced via kayak - boats are only a second option here. This crew proved that they are the ones to ensure safety and fun, all at the same time. I recommend them to anyone, day or night. Wonderful tour folks! Obrigado!

Good experience to see Benagil - Really good experience having fun in the sun. Gave us the freedom to look around at our own will yet structured it in a great, logistical way

Benagil Cave Tour - OUTSTANDING! - Our tour with Alex was exceptional. The kayaking experience on the Atlantic ocean and into the Benagil Cave was a magical experience. An amazing viewpoint and something all must see in this world. The scenery from the ocean view experience was complimented with Alex's vast knowledge of the history of the area. The other areas we kayaked to after the cave did not disappoint. Alex took us to a view of the beautiful rock formations on the water near Praia da Marinha and a view from the ocean of Praia da Marinha beach which is the beach below the cliffs at the start of the 7 Hanging Hanging Valleys trail (also a recommended hike). We were fortunate to book with Alex and we highly recommend this tour, it's well worth the price. Thanks Alex!

We were able to go along spontaneously without prior registration! - We had booked a kayak tour with an online provider the day before, but then he didn't show up on the planned day. It was December 24, 2023 in the morning. Fortunately and coincidentally, Alex from "Xplore Benagil" was there because he had planned a kayak tour with four other people. We spoke to him and told him about our bad luck and he was so friendly and helpful that the four of us were able to spontaneously join him and his fortunately small group. We really enjoyed the trip across the wintry sea and into the caves with the kayaks and Alex. The only thing we would wear next time is short "swimming" shorts. Luckily we had a change of clothes with us as a precaution ;-)
