Guide, Claudio was excellent and brought us to a great place to have lunch. Now for the negatives. They changed time from 11 to 10 to avoid crowds on islands. We were there on time but waited around for almost 1/2 an hour before starting. Very annoying. Lighthouse portion was missable. I think there are better things to do in Algarve.

This’s was a well organised very enjoyable trip Our guide was informative and fun. The weather was a bit windy and the sea was choppy and we got splashed and a bit wet at one point. All part of the fun! Would recommend this trip

We participated in the 4-hour tour of the three islands with a group of about 10 people. The staff was very helpful and professional from the time of booking. The price is fair. The experience was perfect, in a magical place with Claudio, our skipper, who was very nice and knowledgeable as a guide, telling us many interesting facts about the place. Overall, it was a very positive experience. We would do it again if we came back here. Highly recommended.

We booked this tour however they weren’t able to run the tour however they went to great lengths to assist us and booked us in with another company so we wouldn’t miss out. Outstanding customer service and great communication- would recommend booking with them.

Massive Thank you to Carlos for squeezing me and my friends as we booked so late. The 5-hour tour was amazing and informative. Kudos to our amazing Captain Gabriel!!!! Talking about lunch which was part of the stop, our captain recommended Restaurante Maretas at the fishing village. It was superb!!! We had the oysters, sardines, grilled dourada, squid in garlic sauce, plus the homemade sangria. Light house was the last stop. It took us a while to get to the beach area where we can sunbathe but it was worth it even though we were given an hour. Wish we were able to stay longer because it was absolutely beautiful.

Great day out. Plenty of information about the area and plenty of time on each island. A great bunch of 10 people on the trip.

Of our 11 day vacation in Portugal, this was our favorite! Gabriel is an amazing guide, and the tour was entertaining, relaxing, and educational/interesting in equal parts. We learned about oyster and clam fishing, visited beautiful villages and beaches, ate delicious seafood, and played soccer with locals. Absolutely fantastic experience!
