Highly recommended

Many thanks to our guide Sebastian. He is an incredible host. Although he only had the two of us as guests, he conducted the trip. Thank you, Sebastian, for that. It was an unforgettable experience and highly interesting. Since it was just the two of us, Sebastian took a lot of time and explained a lot. A thoroughly successful trip. Highly recommended.

Obrigado! Pela vossa companhia e boa disposição! Caminhar no trilho com vocês e partilhar um pouco das belezas naturais do meu Algarve é realmente um gosto! Uma forma diferente de caminhar no trilho dos setevalessuspensos em Benagil. Sebastião.

Beautiful walk, sometimes a bit adventurous 😊. But what beautiful places. Very nice guide too!! After the walk relax on the beach. Perhaps useful to include list of places where you can be picked up...

Obrigado, pelo seu comentário! A minha guia Claire é muito dedicada e simpática. Caminha com o grupo durante a simples caminhada no trilho e explica todos os pontos especiais que a caminhada contem . O tempo livre na praia da Senhora da Rocha é fantástico e relaxante. Sebastian

Tour was not what I expected however the driver/guide was very pleasant.

Weather was a factor so there was no snorkeling. Basically the “tour” was a nice, short hike to view the caves from above.

Operator response

Obrigado pelo comentário! Sim a base do hiking tour é mesmo a caminhada de 1, 5 km. onde recebe informação das belezas naturais da região! Tira fotos e caminha na natureza! Depois tem 45 minutos para visitar a praia da Marinha, e finalmente 1, 30 hora de tempo livre. Se o mar estiver com ondas não pode nadar ou fazer atividade de snorkiling . Mas pode visitar a pequena capela do século 16, visitar um tunel que liga as 2 praias, andar no trilho se preferir ou simplesmente beber um copo de vinho nos dois restaurantes e 1 bar que existe no local!! Sebastião
