Description

Sunrise slot is the best overall to do a caves tour of the day, the caves are deserted and you will feel it and enjoy a special atmosphere with this tour together with a memorable experience with our highly skilled and reputable crew members. A must do Benagil Caves Tour, most times you will find the best sea conditions of the day. See many dramatic caves and cliffs as you travel along the coast. Keep a lookout, as dolphins can often be seen navigating the waters here. If they are spotted and are less than 3 miles away, the boat will head in their direction so you can get a closer look at these playful mammals. Then, head inside the famous Benagil Caves, which are only reachable by boat. Marvel at the naturally-formed holes at the top, which let the sunlight filter down to the sandy beach below in a beautiful display. Allocation of reserves is automatic.

Beautiful scenary

It's worthwhile to join the tour. Beautiful caves, beaches and shoreline. The guides are good. It will be better if they can separate French speaking travellers from English speaking travelling.

Stunning natural caves, entertaining guide with no-nonsense humor

It was a really nice trip: we visited several caves (Benagil and even more beautiful caves) while being entertained by a nice guide. People were lined up to enter the boat to have a Portuguese and an English speaking group, with each their own guide. Places were given so that you would sit also next to your family/friends. Very attentive and well organized. The seats were fine, not the half-standing "seats" you see on some other boats. The only minor point were the uncomfortable life jackets, but we forgot about them once admiring the stunning environment.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the caves, the organization of the tour, and the guidance from our team. It’s wonderful to know you felt well taken care of and could fully enjoy the stunning scenery. We also take note of your feedback regarding the life jackets, as every comment helps us improve the experience. We hope to welcome you back for another trip soon! Best regards Atlantis Tours team

Amazing experience with a lively and engaging guide (Simon) and well experienced captain (Sebastian). Following the excursion Simon provided recommendations for places to eat as well. The boat was comfortable and it was a beautiful time of day to do the tour.

Brilliant experience would recommend

They where very polite easy to talk to had a good knowledge and pointed out stuff that you wouldn't have noticed would have been good just to look at but they made it better with explaining lot's about the caves and the coast line aswell as having little jokes the captain was very skilled getting us into to caves to see bit that couldn't be seen from outside even with the big waves was a great experience
