Fisherman's tour - Very enjoyable tour. Capt Vincent was lovely and very informative. I would recommend this trip if you don't want to spend too long on a boat. We had 30mins to walk around the island of Culatra. Small group made it even better. Definitely use this company again

One of the best boat trips I have been on - The boat trip - it was very enjoyable; the skipper was very professional, informative and attentive to safety. It was very good value for money.

Nice tour - but a bit more information and story telling, please - The tour was very well organized, punctual, the guide/captain friendly and driving safely. We did already several tours with other "competitors", and we missed more critical information about what is really going on in this area, e.g. the recent conflict in the mussel plantations (French oyster producers wanted to "buy" almost the whole area, and were stopped by a wide protest movement of smallholders), the partly critical ecological situation of the area, , etc. But maybe, the average tourist doesn't want to know too much about this reality beyond the nice landscapes..

Different and interesting - Found this trip as a good option with our 9-y-o grandson on our last morning, en route to the airport. Rui was a friendly and informative guide, and we saw aspects of local life we would otherwise have missed. Recommended.
