3.00Met some nice people. There was supposed to be a guide on the trip that spoke English, but that did not happen.

3.00The tour isn't what it says, they merge you with a tour company that sales similar trip in the city (and has lower rates on Trioadvisor!), but much cheaper compared to this one. The tour turned out to be on a boat with about 100 people. It started at 8:30 (not as advertised in the Viator, 7 or 7:30). There was no english speaking guide. Although the portugese speaking guide was in a good mood.

2.00This tour is not what is advertised. This tour ONLY went to Ilha dos Frades Island and not to Itaparica. There is another tour that goes to both with another tour operator but leaves at 08:00.
Carefree music on the bay

5.00Once I found the window inside the terminal building it was all smooth sailing. The boat was spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Once we got underway and the drinks started coming and the band started playing i was able to relax and enjoy the bay.
Good time

5.00Great experience. Enjoyed both islands and the boat ride. Wear sunblock. Only option on both islands was swimming in the ocean and lounging on the beach, but both locations were great and the water was warm.
