Benagil Sea Cave and cliffs - Great experience with a personable and knowledgeable guide, Eugene. Loved being able to navigate the kayaks into and around the caves and sea cliffs. Great close up viewing for our family of eight....6 adults and two teenagers.

I took this tour at the... - I took this tour at the end of November during the off season. We booked our trip for the 9:00AM slot and was rescheduled to the 11:00AM tour due to lack of other bookings at the same time. I was skeptical at first about going later in the morning, but Xplore assured us that the conditions will be better and warmer later in the day. We showed up at the meeting point early and managed to get in the first group leaving at 11:00AM. This turned out to be a great outcome because we usually got to the caves first and didn't have to wait for another group to finish before entering. The conditions on that day were absolutely pristine. The weather was sunny and warm. Water was calm, like a lake. Paddling ended up being very easy due to the ideal conditions. We entered 3 other caves in addition to Bengali, my favorite being Pirates Cave. Our guide was extremely professional. She explained basic paddling technique, gave explanations of most of the sites we visited, and verified conditions were safe in the caves before she had our group enter. Her English was clear and easy to understand. This kayaking tour definitely exceeded my expectations. I recommend booking this tour with Xplore Bengali who were great operators for this experience.

Beautiful, Fun, adventurous - Daniesh, Nuno and Alex (brothers) were fantastic on this trip! Nuno called to advise of the incoming storm and offered the next day or Tuesday for kayaking tour, we opted for next day 8am. It was a chilly start but warmed up quickly. Daniesh took us on a tour of the caves and hidden beaches. We were well informed and well looked after. Fantastic tour! Thanks gentlemen.
