We firstly got a complementary glass of wine entering the boat.there was a ar with nice drinks and cocktails too ! The Getting in so close to the caves was amazing ! Our guide was fantastic, really interactive and accommodating with questions! Going for a swim in the middle of the sea was phenomenal. We had a relaxing trip back to the port with a nice ambiance and music in the background!

Had a fantastic trip down the coastline and to the caves. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny!Stunning views. We'll worth a visit.
Caves, coastline and dolphins!

Wonderful trip, exploring the caves and coastline. We had a beer in the sunshine, swam off the boat and even saw dolphins!
Very Dissapointed
Edel_c
, Jul 2022
Very unhappy with the experience. We paid €70 & didn’t even get to see the caves. The boat was delayed for over 1hour 30mins. we were left standing & told just to wait in the 30degress heat. No staff to answer questions. We got on the boat 2.30pm didn’t return till 6pm obviously something was wrong with the motor & they never informed us. They went ahead with the trip & we traveled for up to 2hours with the boat stopping & starting. Then 2 hours in to the trip they said we were turning back. As the boat wouldn’t make it that it needed parts. It took another 2 hours to return. We all stared to feel unwell even children getting sick & over heated. No apology nothing or even schedule change we paid to see caves didn’t see it. Absolute disgrace
Response from Host , Jul 2022
Good afternoon Edel,
Thank you very much for your review, which deserved our best attention. We truly appreciate your feedback, since it contributes to the continuous improvement of our services.
AlgarExperience and all of our team is sincerely sorry that the experience was not up to your expectations.
This is not in accordance with our standards but, unfortunately, we had a technical issue with the boat on this date that we were not able to solve immediately.
At the end of the tour, our crew encouraged our customers to go to the reception desk for us to be able to offer an alternative or address your concerns.
We apologize again that you were not able to enjoy the tour as intended, we cannot always control this unforeseen events.
We hope you give us another chance in the future.
Best Regards,
AlgarExperience Team
Great tour of the coast!

Such a nice tour and boat ride of the entire coast! All of the tour guides were super nice and they did a great job of explaining everything you saw on land and a lot of fun historical facts. They also took you very close to the caves so you could get great photos and they let you dip in the ocean too - definitely recommend for a good tour!
Response from Host , Jul 2022

Trip was well organised...
Teodora_K
, May 2022
Trip was well organised and enjoyable. However we expected to go into the caves and explore as it was said in the description but we didn’t so that was the only slightly disappointing thing. But overall it was great and would recommend.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Dear Teodor,
Thank you very much for your feedback! We are very happy that you enjoyed the experience with us.
Our main concern is the safety of our customers. For this reason, we do not disembark inside the caves we visit; however, we try to make sure that our clients enjoy every landscape of our coast.
Hope to see you again soon!
Best regards,
AlgarExperience Team
Best way to see and know the Algarve coast.

If you only have one full day in this area I truly recommend this 3 hour tour. You see everything from the comfort of a nice catamaran. The guide and crew were very informative and helpful. This was the highlight of our two night stay in the Algarve.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
