Excellent! We were unable to kayak in caves as planned because of sea swells. Company notified me a few days prior to see if we could go earlier, but we only had the one day. They provided an alternative, we went my speed boat. Great experience we really enjoyed. Boat driver and guide were great. Very friendly, helpful and informative. Caves were amazing. They turned a disappointment into a wonderful experience. Thank you!!

Excellent tour - exactly what was expected! The tour started exactly on time, the guides were very helpful. We were kayaking through several caves, best way to see them. The tour involved some strenuous kayaking along the shoreline so be prepared to work a bit. However if you get tired, the guys were always on hand to help out. Overall a really fun way to see the area.

The place was closed with no sign or anything when I went to the meeting point on time. I haven’t gotten any email or notice that this tour was cancelled.
There were many other tour operators’ huts open right next door, and one person was kind enough to call my tour company, when I was told the tour was cancelled. At least they refunded me.
I went on another boat tour, and saw many kayaks near Benagil cave. I was very upset that I missed out on kayaking and the ability to land inside the cave.

The Bengali caves were good! Prior to leaving for our trip the tour informed us that we would NOT be using the Kayaks on a Kayak tour if the caves! They stated they had been halted since September! We booked in August! No advance notice, no concern the trip was dramatically altered without any option to cancel ! The boat trip was good BUT not as advertised!

Best local guides. Very safe and knowledgeable. We had a fantastic time and great views inside many caves.

This tour was a great way to get close to the caves and really enjoy a stunning views. I would recommend doing this tour, however the only challenge is that there are many tours happening at the same time and your own group is pretty big so you are often challenged with bumping into one another as you are kayaking. Still, do not let that deter you....this is a wonderful experience.

We booked this tour for our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids aged 10 and 14) on August 19, 2023. We could not been happier with this excursion. We were provided with clean and well kept life jackets, kayaks and paddles. We had a great boat ride and the guides were great, teaching us about interesting facts on the way. Some of the caves we were able to enter in the boat which was very cool. Then we got into tandem kayaks and paddled over to a number of different caves. At all times, we felt very safe as there were a number of staff kayaking with us and encouraging us and a “lifeguard” raft following behind us for the stragglers. We saw some really cool caves and beaches and then before heading back, we returned our kayaks and went for a swim off the boat which was very refreshing. Overall this excursion was great value for the cost and I would highly recommend it if you are looking for a safe and fun way to see a number of caves including Benagil!
