A great little bird watching experience! - Saw some lovely birds and landscapes, show to us by our passionate, friendly and funny tour guide. Provided with a board to help identify the birds, with the guide pointing them out.

Perfect way to start the day! - My wife and I had a wonderful time on this tour! It was the perfect way to start our trip in the Faro area. Our tour guide Luis was wonderful as he showed us through the salt marsh giving us background on the local wildlife gave us recommendations for the rest of our day in town. Highly recommend!

Serene ride - Very relaxing cruise through the lagoon at low-medium tide. We saw some crabs and birds. The boat was quiet and peaceful and our guide was very nice. Next time I’d do a longer ride to go farther out and see more, but was tight on time

Calm and peaceful look at wildlife - Boat is wonderful - silent and calm. The guide is similar in that he's calm but very friendly, very informative, very funny. He told us the level of winds would reduce what we would normally see, so he managed our expectations but still found us enough birds and wildlife to make the trip a success. Highly recommended.

Solar boat tour grew at guide - Terrific guide and I’d always wanted to see the Ria Formosa Our guide did warn us that June was not a great time to see the bird life but he did a great job of pointing out the few birds that were there. I highly recommend using a solar boat for the quiet the smell and the environment

Beautiful time in the lagoon, with a little pedagogy - Pleasant time on the electric boat through Ria Formosa for the ride "sunset". Some information was given in English by our Guide about the aquatic and terrestrial wildlife of the region.

Peaceful but no wildlife - The guide was late and it finished 10 minutes early which was not impressive for a one hour tour. Minimal wildlife to see. The solar boat was quiet and peaceful but it seems like a lot of money for the experience.
