Amazing experience! - Amazing experience, led by a very knowledgeable Mike the Viking who genuinely seemed to love the beautiful nature of Portugal! The whole booking process, arrival and instructions were seamless and we both commented afterwards that we felt safe for the whole trip. Thankyou to the whole team, we will definitely be returning!

Worth it - The main Benagil cave with the beach is quite cool but also insanely packed with tourists as one might expect. They gave us 25 minutes in here first thing, which I thought was a bit long, but fine. The rest of the kayak tour was much less crowded and you get to go into many smaller caves that other boats can't fit in, which is cool, but you don't get to hang out in them you paddle in and immediately turn around so the boat behind you in your group can go. Viking Mike was efficient at herding all the tourists and amusing, thanks for the good experience. Side note, the dry bags they provide have backpack straps which was nice. Get there early though traffic going into that area is crazy.

Thrilling experience - Excellent and thrilling experience with a chance to visit many Benagil cave, many other coves and jumping in the ocean. We went with the kids and had no experience of kayaking, it requires good physical fitness especially with kids but Herardo is always there to help Incase or issues. Highly recommend.

What Benagil Cave? - The directions provided by Viator sent us and others to the wrong location. The guide contacted us and then came and picked us up but it was a little crazy for a bit. The change was due to the government changing the regulations on how many people can visit Benagil per day. Nevertheless they should have confirm the meeting location as the link sent us to an apartment about 1 mile from the true meeting point.
The tour itself was great but did not include Benagil because we would not have been able to go inside the cave per new regulations so the guide recommended visiting other caves, which we did. Those were awesome so all in all the tour was good.

Nice tour! - It was a nice tour with Stance. We have seen some beautiful spots and the guides were very friendly and helpful on the water.
Little note, about the area. It’s extremely busy so be in time to find a parking spot.

Good, could be better thought out - The Portuguese authorities have restricted who can get in 'the' cave, which also meant we had to launch from a beach further away than normal. This meant it was a long way, so you need to be fit. But it also means it is luck whether you get in the cave or not or it's quite stressful with lots of other tours around too. That said there were lots of other caves and pretty bits - I think you'd be better staying closer to the launch beach and doing other little, less famous, caves.
The guides were lovely and we saw dolphins which was awesome.
