"The tour was wonderful!!! I felt very safe, even though I don’t know how to swim and have some fear of water. Our guide, Rafa, was extremely attentive and very careful about safety throughout the entire trip. It was absolutely worth overcoming my fear to live such an amazing experience. I was born on the island and have been to Lagoa do Peri many times, but I never imagined it hid such a unique landscape. It’s hard to put into words what you find there. It truly exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended!!!"

“Incredible experience. Rafael gave us total confidence and safety throughout the whole tour. With his full support, we were able to bring my 70-year-old mother to realize her dream of kayaking. Ilha do Francês is beautiful, and being able to get there by kayak was very special.”
"Wonderful!! The guide was very respectful, responsible, dedicated, and lovely. I visited Ilha do Francês with my boyfriend, it's super beautiful. The guide helped us choose the best day to do the tour, we absolutely loved it!"
