Amazing sunset, inspirational Captain Andre! - Highly recommended. A relaxing and informative end-of-day cruise in the Ria Formosa park. Our captain & guide, Andre, was outstanding. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the natural environment was second to none. He kept us all interested & entertained throughout the hour long 'cruise' - a very knowledgeable and inspiring guy. And the sunset itself was amazing.

With the solar boat underway - Very nice, quiet trip with the solar boat through the nature reserve at sunset. A windproof jacket is definitely recommended in February.

Great guide, great view, great wildlife - Me and my friends loved this tour! Manuel was an extremely friendly and knowledgeable tour guide and we really had a nice time with him. The boat is super quiet so it’s such a peaceful trip to watch the sunset and the birds. They also provided blankets for us when it got a bit colder - nice touch! Would definitely recommend 👍🏼

Peaceful sunset cruise - Summary: Purchase if you want a peaceful wildlife tour on top of a nice sunset view. If you only want the latter, watching the sunset near the pier of Faro will give a similar view for free. Longer: The trip left ~55 minutes before sunset, so most of the time on the water was spent sailing through the marshes looking at wildlife (every 2x people get binoculars). The boat is very quiet and we felt peaceful throughout. The sunset was beautiful, but we only saw it as we were beginning to head back towards the marina. It would have been nice had the tour started 30 minutes later to fully enjoy the colours of the sky after the sunset. Nonetheless, we appreciated the overall experience and got some great pictures.
