Sugestões - We went with Oscar at 14:15 on 16/06. The tour was very nice, we really liked to know the region. But I have a recommendation for improvement: the deserted beach is far from walking, and it is the best stop, it needs to be at least 1:30h to enjoy well and be able to swim. The other stops are simpler, they can be faster, especially the last one. I suggest you validate this with other customers, because then the tour will be even better. The other point is that you shouldn't warn customers that there's no place to sit. Because we were in front in the sun all the time and when I tried to sit in the bottom the other customers were looking ugly and I had to leave. If everyone pays the same price, everyone can sit anywhere, right? Plus, Oscar is very friendly and great tourist guide.
