It was a very nice day! The company was great! We went first to the island of Frades (we arrived before other escunas, which was very good) and then to the island of Itaparica. It's worth it! I recommend!
Very good experience!

The experience of the escuna walk to Frades Island and Itaparica is very good. I highly recommend! It was only a little disorganized at the reception, but that did not prevent the experience from being excellent and very well taken advantage.
Wonderful

It was very cool even the experience. Besides the guide being very animated, the service of the bar on board was very good and the tours very well conducted. I would definitely do it again.

Island of the Frades beautiful place. But lack of structure in the tents. If you want to sit yem that ask for a chair, pq otherwise people sit on the bench. Wet. Not worth it.It seems wonderful, but the bus that makes the tour.... falling to pieces.
A very nice getaway

This tour was super fun! And honestly perfect, the only problem was that they don’t really communicate times well, it has a time on here but when they text you it’s another! Luckily we were able to go on the next boat

Very good tour, Itaparica is all good! I just think you should warn that you have the part that you have to translate to a boat, given that it can become impossible for some people! I fell for example when I went by boat.
