Memorable - Fantastic tour.
The spotter Diogo (there from the top of Monte Brasil) is the skipper João (in the zodiac) managed to put us in the precise locations that allowed us to observe 4 different species
Always respectful of the environment Mood, the approaches were always cautious and safe for both the animals and the crew.
Biologist Joana’s explanations and advice were clear, accurate and super exciting.
We were able to feel the emotion in his voice every time there was an observation.
The Tour began with several sightings of squalots. Then we set off looking for the dolphins. Suddenly, we were surrounded by three species of dolphins.
Thank you Diogo, João and Joana, for this unforgettable adventure.
Thanks to the Adventure Peaks.
It was simply memorable.
I recommend 100%

Spectacular - My experience was amazing, I recommend the experience, the driving of Francisco was super calm, calm and serene.
Joana was impeccable in every aspect, from information to help.
The Diogo who was the watchman, made the possible and the impossible so that we could see the species even though they were a little shy.
