They were friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what they do — they made us feel safe, relaxed, and completely taken care of the entire time. They answered all our questions, and even let our daughter get involved a bit. By the end of the trip, she was absolutely captivated — I think she may have found a new passion for sailing!

The two guides were excellent. They were easy going, accommodating, knowledgeable and honestly, made the trip since they shared the history of Portugal and explained all the sights as we sailed around them. I will recommend this activity to anyone that visits Portugal. An absolute must do.”
