We loved the Albandeira ecotours company, both the owner Victor and the lovely instructors, they take you to the most beautiful areas of the region and to caves that you can't even imagine. We highly recommend it.

Very complete tour in which we visit several caves, not just Benagil. Although it was planned for 3 hours, we stayed almost 4 hours, they were quite generous in that sense. The guide Pedro was very attentive at all times, he explained some history about the caves to us. Close treatment, nothing industrialized as you could see happening with other tours.

it was a great tour. A very good guide (Alan) who really took the time for the group and guided us safely through all the caves. Highly recommended if you want to discover Portugal and see beautiful nature.
