This tour is great for people staying in Faro. The bus is at a centric point, and it takes you to Algarve and back to Faro. There is no public transportation to those beaches and a taxi would be too expensive. So this is perfect. Plus, the guides take you every step to the beautiful cave and back, they are very helpful, kind, protective of the group and in good spirits. They lend you the bodyboard and the wetsuit to go to the cave. Later they take us to Marinha beach for an hour. Both places are some of the best viewers. You could see in a beach. It was a great day!
Thumbs Up!

The tour from Faro to Benagil and Praia da Marina was so amazing! My favorite day here visiting the Algarve! I was very pleasantly surprised that they took the time to check the tides of the water, teach us how to swim into the cave, and stay with us the entire way as we did the main activity, swimming into the Benagil Cave. It was so stunning inside. I will say I would only recommend this for strong swimmers!
We then went to Praia da marinha, the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. Amazing day
Not the usual standard

Unfortunately the sea was too rough for us to body board into the cave. However 4 of the group were encouraged to go, so they went which left us sat in wetsuits on our own. We tracked back up the hill to the minibus to find no driver there, but it was left unlocked in a busy car park with all our stuff in it. We changed, got our purses and had to sit and wait for the others to come back( about 1.5 hours). We then drove to the beach and walked the beautiful coastal path and met the rest of the group being escorted to a “ secret” cave, we were not invited. The guide didn’t speak to us on the journey there or back. I understand the sea conditions were the problem, but on a group trip I would expect everyone in the group to be catered for. I felt very unwelcome and almost embarrassed for being there. Not the standard I expected from Viator trips that are usually excellent
Response from Host , Jun 2022
good evening sir/madam , thanks for taking time to write a review; after reading the review and talked to our guide its very important to mention that swiming knowledge is mandatory in the activity having safety as our number one priority and we never put the life of our client in risk.
Marinha beach is one of the most beautiful beach in Europe where people have a time for themselves having a picnic, walking over the amazing cliffs ,relaxing at the beach; our guide report said that you decided to go on your own and have a time by your self .
Great tour!!!

We had a great day! Good music and good vibes. As stated, they don't provide food but there was a little stand where you could by some snacks and drinks if needed. We loved our body boarding experience into the cave and felt very safe with the instructions from our guide! Provided great equipment and instructions how to use them safely!
An adventure you won’t forget!

We had a brilliant time on this tour. The caves were incredible, as was the secret beach. We had plenty of time in the cave to take lots of pictures and didn’t feel rushed. The swim in to the cave was really easy and we didn’t feel under pressure at any stage. We would definitely recommend this trip!
Amazing Experince

Lovely guide, glad we did the trip with this organisation! We didn't have to worry about transportation and Benagil cave can be difficult to reach without guidance & proper equipment. We got enough time to spend in the cave to take pictures and enjoy the wonderful view. Later, we went to Marinha beach and spend 1.5h there, which was enough to do a hike and a bit of swimming. Recommend this trip!

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.
