5.00This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal! We loved getting to ride around and see dolphins and the beautiful coastline outside of Sesimbra. It was so nice having a guide as knowledgeable and passionate as Catarina, she taught us so much about dolphins and the local habitat, as well as conservation efforts in the area. Andre was a great driver - Thank you for the great excursion, Catarina and Andre! We had a wonderful time.
