Very interesting and informative. Captain Rita and Mate Seara were knowledgeable and very friendly. Boat is comfortable, but small enough to fully explore the port. Highly recommended!

Fun to see the port operating and ships being loaded and unloaded. the guide could get a little more knowledge of the process. The dredges were operating when we passed them, it would have been nice to go a little further through the river.
