The solar boat was great, lovely to glide along silently. Sadly we didn't see any birds until our last 15 minutes. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the Ria Formosa and birds usually found there. It was very interesting to learn of the ecology of the area. Our guide was a marine biologist so knew his stuff and was a very friendly guy.

We loved our tour with our guide from Ingelmunster. He was really nice and gave us a lot of information. The solar boats are great because they hardly make any noise and this way you don't startle the birds too much. Highly recommendable if you want a short tour around the beautiful nature surrounding Faro

Could lastet longer. Very friendly and smart captain. It's very calming to take a boat trip that is as silent as sailing. Thank you for having us.

A very informative trip for adults and kids.
A Belgian chap was our guide and we were able to get English speaking. He was excellent.
A new experience on a solar powered boat was a healthier and more eco friendly option.
No smell of diesel.
Very good value.

Booked this boat trip last minute and was pleasantly surprised. Cost 15 euros each for approx an hour. The skipper was friendly and very informative of the local area and wildlife.
The solar boat is tranquil and would love to visit again around sunset.
Would highly recommend and thank you to the young lady at the ticket office - very informative and not pushy - amazing
