5Carvoeiro Caves
A brilliant experience exploring the caves in a small motor boat. Just bought the tickets from the booth on the beach. Our guide Fortuna, and the captain Miguel were superb, and very skilled at navigating small cave entrances. Even had life jackets for a 9 month baby and storage facilities for a pram.
5Fantastic experience!
Fantastic experience - guide and skipper were excellent - knowledgeable and very friendly. They also took some great photos for us. Not sure if the guys names but they are on the photo. A great and well worthwhile excursion. We were 5 people on a 10 berth boat - there was plenty of space.
5Amazing! Highly recommend to others!
Such a great trip! Took us all round the caves, inside them, amazing value for money would recommend! Our captain Antonio was brilliant and we had Daniel as our guide who was great, telling us all about the caves, so informative! Loved it thanks so much
5Great Private Tour for our Family with Kids!
Easy to book and find tour operator. They were professional, and loved having a private tour. Guides (Fortuna and Joao) gave us lots of helpful information and took lots of pics for us, which was great! We did feel the overall cost was a bit high for 1.5 hours, but with the photos, it was worth it. If guides weren't taking photos for us, we would not pay for the private tour. Enjoy!
5Best private cave tour!
It was truly amazing and entertains. All children loved it. From age 4 till 14. We would definitely repeat again!

About Portimão
Portimão is a river port and fishing town on the western Algarve, with sardine grills by the quay and the sandy bays and red cliffs of Praia da Rocha.
Portimão sits at the mouth of the Arade River, and its long history of fishing and fish canning shaped the town. The old cannery now houses the town's museum, which records that trade, and the riverfront quay has rows of grills where sardines are cooked in the open air. Across the water is Ferragudo, a village of white houses with the Santa Catarina fortress at the river mouth.
Top-ranked sights in Portimão: Museu de Portimao, Autódromo Internacional do Algarve.
