“A unique experience- getting to see parts of Comporta you can only witness from a boat. Great wildlife- flying fish( one landed in our boat) and flamingos. When I come back here I will do the trip again The guide was a delightful man- courteous and knowledgeable. My advice to make it even better: 1) Tell people to bring a sun hat 2) Tell people to bring some cash as the bar in the town you visit is cash only 3) Include some squid tasting in the price 4)consider selling some of the local salt to guests”

Reviews of this tour
“This was so memorable. Relaxed, picturesque and informative. Stopping at the town for coffee just added to the experience. No crowds, just an incredible view and nice conversation and learning.”
“Amazing experience! We did the Sado tour and we didn’t expect the history and nature around this place, after the tour the guide recommend us where to eat the best “choco frito” in town by far the best squid I tried everrrr Be cautious with the tides! We where lucky but the tides of the river determine the hour when you can do the tour. 5 stars!!!”
