Absolute disappointment!
I had booked the trip for a Thursday.
Two days before, I was informed that there was a problem in the booking system and that we unfortunately could only go on Friday.
On Thursday evening, I was then informed that we unfortunately could not go on Friday either and had to postpone to Saturday.
Since we departed on Saturday, we were not able to take the trip at all. (And due to the short notice, we were also unable to book any other tour because everything was fully booked.)
Super annoying!
Operator response
Lamentamos profundamente o transtorno causado pelas alterações de data e pela impossibilidade de realizar o passeio antes da sua partida.
Explicamos que estes ajustes visam garantir o número mínimo de participantes, algo que nem sempre conseguimos prever com antecedência. Pedimos sinceras desculpas pelo impacto nas suas férias.

To improve
It is true that the weather conditions did not help, but the tour is weak, the boat has very few conditions, the cover was falling apart, and the engine had several problems. If it weren't for Mariana's and Ivan's kindness, it would have been very bad...
Operator response
Lamentamos que as condições do barco e do tempo tenham prejudicado a sua experiência.
Agradecemos o alerta sobre a cobertura e o motor; já encaminhámos o assunto para a manutenção resolver de imediato. Ficamos muito satisfeitos por saber que a simpatia da Mariana e do Ivan fez a diferença.
Trabalhamos para garantir total conforto e esperamos poder mostrar-lhe a nossa verdadeira qualidade no futuro.

A very well spent afternoon on the ria
Excellent activity on a sailboat with excellent conditions for the tour! Ricardo turned out to be an experienced skipper and a great host of the Ria Formosa region!

Experience to repeat without any doubt
Private tour, 4 adults and 4 children. What a wonderful day, what a divine experience. It was fun, super dynamic and relaxing, we shared stories, we received teachings about navigation, tide, we had 4 children between the ages of 7 and 12, all left the experience super excited and wanting to return. We feel safe and cared for 100% of the time.
There was also a break for some refreshing dives before returning to the harbor.

Ria Formosa Tour
We loved the Ria Formosa! It was a fantastic afternoon, very relaxed, with time to enjoy the sea, the landscape and know a little better this amazing area.
The whole experience was very natural and rush-free, exactly what we were looking for. A special thanks to Isac and Ricardo, who were always attentive and available, helping to make the experience even better.
Undoubtedly one of the best moments these days at Fuseta. An experience that we recommend and that we will be happy to repeat!
