Olhão: 3H Tour Privado de Barco, Natureza / Ilhas de Ria Formosa

We had a fantastic trip with Daniel and Saraya who skippered the boat expertly in low tide. We learned so much about the Ria Formosa as well as historical perspectives of the region up to current events. The Oyster farming information was fascinating. The boat was spacious, comfortable and really charming as were our hosts. I highly recommend this trip.

We were looking for a full day out in the water. We contacted directly with Daniel, who was very prompt in responding to my emails. He was cordial, accessible, and immediately made us feel relaxed and excited. Daniel warmly welcomed us aboard his boat “Venture,” instantly breaking the ice for everyone with his vivid and humorous safety briefing. He explained everything in his perfect “American” accent. We went close to one of the oyster fields where Daniel explained the process of growing them, and some of us had the chance to taste them fresh. The boat wasn’t fast, but time seemed to fly by, It didn’t felt like being on a boat most of the time; rather, it felt like visiting the natural park in a big, comfortable living room that glided through a beautiful and serene landscape. It was peaceful, stable, and sprinkled with delightful surprises and features that were “more than meets the eye” 😉. Thank you so much for the wonderful day.

Great hosts, impeccable at what they do. Well organized, always attentive to clients, everything explained about the nature and our surroundings. The Ria Formosa is a stunning place, not that much macro wildlife to be evidently observed, mostly birds. We understood summer it is not the best time of the year for nature, but still we observed sea horses, it was a surprise, as Daniel had the snorkeling gear on the boat and presented to the kids this opportunity, plus he went on the water with us to ensure we would see them. Really really great experience.

It started as a simple boat ride and it rapidly turned into to a mini cruise of a lifetime, the landscape, the people working on their clam farms, going for the oyster bags, the birds, the villages, the impressive beaches and everything present in this natural park just light up under Daniels words of wisdom and knowledge (with great humor also should I say🤣). Can't recommend enough.

It was a wonderful day! Very friendly captains! Very relaxed and informative. Also the kids had a fantastic trip with snorkeling and jumping of the boat!

Whenever there is a special occasion, I take this walk with Daniel! Take us to fantastic places in Ria Rormosa and always sprinkled with good disposition 😊

A very well spent afternoon. The staff 5 stars and a magnificent sunset. It was all flawless. I highly recommend this experience!

One of the best experiences we could have had. We went to a friend's birthday, we stopped at the beach and the sea to dive. Daniel is spectacular. Day Top. I recommend.

A maritime tourism company with an excellent service. Attention to detail and care for the well-being of passengers. Knowing the beautiful river from this perspective is a unique and unavoidable experience. I highly recommend! Thank you Skippers Daniel and Soraia.

A magical experience! The Venture is one of those boats that makes us feel in a movie - beautiful, comfortable and with immense attention to detail. Daniel and Soraia were simply spectacular! All super well organized, in a light environment and full of good energies. An adventure that we recommend to everyone.
