Summary:
We had a wonderful experience on this kayak tour with Alan. It was a small
Group of us and we started off from a family property with a short walk to a private beach with the owner who was a pleasure chatting with. Loved the personal touch and they were very knowledgeable and shared the history of the Benagil and other caves we visited. Lots of fun and it was easy to keep up with the group. A definite must if you especially don’t want to be on a large group within the touristy area. Waterproof bags are provided and there are shower facilities available to wash off. You can also enjoy time at the beach after the tour. Thank you guys for this experience. Also Alan took individual photos of us which we had access too at the end of the day.

Summary:
We had a wonderful trip with eco tours. Our safety and enjoyment were clearly their top priorities. We saw another kayak tour out at the same time as us, who didn't seem to take such good care of their guests safety. Thank you to Viktor, Alex and Gabriel. They were great!
