    Sergio and Susana were the perfect guests! From the attention to the music, to the refreshments and snacks, to the good mood and energy. We think everything is fantastic and we will definitely be back! The boat is very comfortable for smaller groups, like ours of 6 people, and the route is beautiful! The calmer speed adopted by Sérgio allowed him to take beautiful photographs and enjoy the wonderful weather that was on that date. It was a fantastic experience provided by both of them that deserves repeating!
