Guided Nature Tour & Hop On Hop Off 3 Islands
A great full day out!
We had a fantastic day on this trip. Joaquin was very knowledgeable and so enthusiastic! He guided us round the Rio Formosa pointing out the huge variety of birdlife. This was fascinating. Then we used the hop-on, hop-off ticket to visit Ilya Deserta (where we walked round the island and paddled in the sea), Culatra and Farol. All were great. The day lasted about six hours but we could easily have spent more time and any of the stops. We would thoroughly recommend this day out!
