BENAGIL CAVES - David and Fernando were great as guide and captain. Tour is great fun, fascinating and the caves are beautiful. Well worth the £35 euros each.

Not too full boat and very friendly staff. - Very friendly guide and a good captain. Nice trip, took 2 hours and that's long enough for two young children. We were a small group.

Great! - That was amazing! We discovered beautiful caves. Our 10-year-old son also loved the boat ride. We recommend you to visit Myriam in Ferragudo to pick up the tickets. She is French, very friendly and she is also very good advice

Perfect - It was an amazing, tour and the guide Diego and the driver were excellent! My husband and I are in our 70’s and felt completely safe and comfortable- don’t hesitate - so worth it and you go into the caves which is what I wanted with a total of 20 people- perfect!

nice rewarding excursion. - Unfortunately it was scheduled 1/2 day before short notice later (according to the company due to Lowtide ... but you know that months in advance! ) otherwise everything was fine! That's why there were so many boats on the way!

would not book this tour on tripadvisor or viator - would not recommend using tripadvisor or viator for booking this trip- They some how booked me for two benagil cave tours at the same time on the same day with two different tour operators and are refusing to refund the money for the tour I was unable to take- I was not able to cancel on time as both tours were the same day and time had the same name and I didnt realize two different tour operators were involved until I looked up the meet up location the day before the tour- There are other tour companies available such as getyourguide and tours by local or you can contact the local guide directly I will not be using tripadvisor or viator anymore
