Family trip with 2 adult kids and universal 5* rating ! - Congrats to Buoco for providing an amazing experience. great weather and calm winds in the morning helped and I would recommend going early if possible due to congestion. You can see so much more on a kayak and we do not have much experience and found it manageable. Great pics provided by tour group. Everything provided and they let us store backpacks in the van. Carvalho beach as start/end point is amazing as well. Finally, its on the 7 hanging valley trail so after the kayak we did the hike. Great day and very much appreciate this tour. Americans, Family of 4 with kids in 20s.

Amazing! - Caio was fantastic! He made us feel at ease since we didn’t have any prior experience kayaking! This a great way to see the caves up close - a different perspective! It’s truly amazing. Even at 830 is was a bit crowded with other groups and boats.. but that’s to be expected I guess since we were there in July. Caio had lots of information too so we also got to learn a lot!

Great guides, fun activity. - Fun activity with cool guides. Fair warning though - make sure you are in relatively decent physical shape as it can be challenging when the waves are strong and the sun is beating down on you. We were 5 minutes late (due to a flat tire) but luckily the guides waited for us. Another group was more than 30 minutes late and the one guide waited patiently for them while the rest of our group started the activity. Fred/ Federico our guide was nice, patient and made sure to take plenty of photos for the group. He also helped us with our flat tire in the parking lot.

10/10 Kayak Cave Tour! - This was a MUST DO tour when visiting Algarve's. We got to enjoy the beautiful nature, crystal clear water and hot sun. Our tour guides Davide and Miguel were educated and taught us about the different rock formations, knew exactly which spots were the best to take us and were funny with good vibes all around. We went on a Sunday at 12:30pm although it was busy as we expected it didn’t take away from the experience! 10/10 recommend my friend and I loved it and would definitely do this again!

So good the first time, we booked again! - This was actually our second time taking this tour. First was October 2024 with Francisco which was so incredible that when our friends came to visit last week, we had to do it again. Francisco remembered us from last year which was really great. Our guide this trip was Miguel who was also super knowledgeable and a great personality. Highly recommend this kayak tour. ( would suggest fall if possible just as less tours then high season) 10 out of 10!
