Amazing!

A excellent way to spend an afternoon!! Chico was our tour guide/captain - he was very knowledgeable of the area, wildlife and fauna. It was great having the boat to ourselves - it gave us the time to learn more and do the trip on our time. Just the right amount of time was spent at two islands. It was really easy to communicate with the operator - Sandra replied quickly on Whats App when I indicated that was the best way to contact me. Boat was comfy and very clean. Thank you for an excellent tour Chico!

Company name: NATURA.

Our captain: JAIME

Fantastic cruise of three hours, that took aroun four and a half hours, because of the simpathy of Jaime.

He reveled graet knoledge about the RIA de FARO, mainly, but not only, about species protection.

We went with a French couple, and Jaime had no problems speaking french with a perfect accent. He also speakes perfect English. And, of course, Portuguese.

He also organized a memorable seafood lunch, at one of the restaurants in Colatra Island.

And finaly, he "provided" an amazing swin at RIA's warm waters.

So:

NATURA and the boat: TOP.

JAINE: SUPER TOP!!!

If you want to know a corner of Paradise, don't miss this.

Amazing!

We had a private trip for our family which meant we could visit the Islands and watch the sunset. Ricardo our guide was excellent and planned the trip carefully so we could make the most of our time with the boat. We learnt a lot about the nature reserve and the history of the local area.

The sunset was beautiful.

The boat trip was one of the highlights of our holiday!!

Amazing!

Me and my family enjoyed so much this tour. It was the best experience in these vacations! We had some informations about nature, we saw some birds, we saw the change of tides. Then we could swim on Deserta island, the skipper borrowed sunscreen (we forgot!), thank you! Then we had a nice picnic on Farol island and visited the village. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. It's good value. I super recommend this company!
