The trip is great and the boat is adequate. The tour guide did his best to get around everyone and share information about the islands as we travelled, however there is no announcement systems so he travels round group to group to repeat the details.
He was great at explaining the history and present day information once he became available.
The stop over on Culatra and Aromona islands was lovely and we had a fantastic lunch.
I would say the only improvement is he space available to visitors on the boat (somewhat limited outdoor) the boat is very small and when other boats passed by we commented that we had hoped to be on a similar vessel. That said it was cheaper, perfectly safe and enjoyable day.
