Beautiful time! - Victor, our Skipper was informative and kind. He knew how to engage his gusts and it was obvious he loves why he does. He is a tru educator. We loved seeing all the caves and enjoyed the history. Highly recommend this tour with Lue Ocean tours.

Fun & great service - This boat tour was great fun! Just 12 passengers. We went on the 11:30 trip & the winds weren't too bad. The boat was small enough to get close to the caves. The service was really outstanding. The owner volunteered to pick us up at our hotel in Portimao & that was wonderful since it would have been a pretty long walk.

Great group, funny guide, safe & fun activity - We loved our trip with Blue Ocean Trips. Our guide was funny and informative. They kept us safe (in all the crazy traffic at Benagil) and brought us to beautiful locations. They made sure we saw everything we wanted. We were able to swim at Praia da Afurada and it was just the four of us. What an experience!! Would recommend this group & go with them again someday!!

TOP experience - The team is very pleasant, sociable and attentive. We had a great time as a family. The boat being small, we were able to enter certain small caves unlike larger boats such as the one we were able to do last year, which allows us to discover even more. On the way back we were able to swim and pilot the boat for those who wanted. It’s a great experience to have. Price quality, I confirm!

The only way to see the coastline - Marcelo and Diego were great hosts. This is probably the best way to see the unique Algarve coastline. The boat holds 10 or so riders and is small enough to go where the big boats can’t. A really fun part of the tour was seeing the millions of years old shells in the caves.

Excellent morning - Excellent organisation by Blue Ocean Trips from start to finish. We were picked up from our hotel in Alvor at the agreed time. I mentioned I was a bit nervous of boats / water so the lady who picked us up made sure the skipper was aware but I needn’t have worried as he was excellent. I felt really safe. We were told local facts as we passed areas. The caves are amazing but trip made even better by our guides. Would definitely recommend Blue Ocean Trips

Perfect experience - well worth the cost - Booked this trip as a group of 10 as all the other boat trips seemed to be so packed and only take an hour and for 10 of us wasnt that much more money. Victor our captain was so knowledgeable and even changed the trip slightly as the wind was starting to pick up. On the way to the caves he went in the deep ocean and we found several pods of dolphins jumping around the boat and swimming around us - amazing. Visited the key caves on Benagil and then slowly went back along the coast explaining all the key sites and caves. Ended up mooring up for a swim and some lovely fruit and wine. A perfect way to spend 2 1/2 hours. Thank you

Disappointment with Viator - None. I waited at the appointed meeting place for an 11:30 tour. Even though I was provided a local # I do not have an international plan. Through the kindness of a local she was able to contact the tour operator at 11:34 who I spoke to only to find out that the were closed for the season and they had no confirmation from Viator. He apologized for the mixup and said he would contact Viator and request my refund. Which he did and I did receive my refund but that still does not compensate my disappointment with not being able to visit the caves. My disapproval is not with the tour operator, who could not apologize enough but with Viator. Who up to an hour before the tour sent me reminders of tour. And after acknowledging a refund was being issued keeps emailing me to give a review of the tour they should know I did get to use due to their error. I have tried to contact Viator with no success. The emails that are sent are no reply emails thus, this is my only way to vent my disappointment.
