    Private Boat Trip through the Ria Formosa Natural Park
    "I would recommend this private boat trip because you can go at your pace. We went to the fishing port. This was an awesome experience. The best island would be Ihla Deserta where you can have lunch in Estancia (very good food but reserve ahead of time) and also swim. Do not spend more than 20 mins in Armona and Farol. Go to Culatra to buy fresh oysters from the fishermen. A 6 hour private trip is perfect. "Teresa O , October 2, 2025

    Boat Trip along Ria Formosa with Birdwatching
    "Highly recommend this trip. Especially if you are looking for something very laid back and relaxing. The afternoon tour may be the best as it ends with the sunset over the waters in January. The amount of wildlife depends of course on the wildlife. Our guide André was very knowledgeable about the birds as well as the Faro area and culture. Very well spoken, engaging, and polite. Could not have asked for better. "Marcia, January 12, 2025
