Nice pleasant few hours on the tourist trail with my wife and eldest daughter. Saw a handful of Dolphins at play then onto the caves. Up close and personal with the caves and looked after by the team on board throughout. Great value for money for a few hours relaxing in the Algarve.
Was a great time, very fun, staff were very nice nd helpful, got to see some really cool caves nd dolphins.
I went on the excursion with my little brother and we had a great time; we were able to see the dolphins a little from afar, which is a shame, but that is not the organizers' fault. The explanations are good and there is music, which is cool. We even got a juice upon arrival. When a group went to see the caves, my brother was able to swim a little. I recommend it, superb experience!
Excellent Captain as it is crowded at the cave and he did great getting us as close to the opening as possible for the tall boat. Tour info on boat was excellent also, telling us about the different rock formations and beaches that we were going by.
It is a unique experience with spectacular landscapes, the crew very attentive and well disposed, the part of the caves and watching the dolphins is indiscretible. We recommend 100%
No dolphins but an enjoyable trip along the Algarve coastline. Thought the guide who said she was a marine biologist could have spoken more about marine life in the area and the history behind the formation of all the limestone feature.
The pictures that were a part of the advertisement was not what was seen on our excursion. The picture of the cave in the hole at the top was not seen at all on this trip and it should be told in the description of the excursion. It was simply a boat ride to the cave, and we didn’t even head down the coastline on the way back. We were disappointed.
A great family trip! My 3 year old son enjoyed looking for the dolphins and luckily found them! Would definitely recommend this affordable boat trip.
A shame not to see dolphins, but the experience was very good.
There were NO dolphins like advertised
