Professionally and thoughtfully conducted. Felt well looked after and safe at all times. The optional additional boat trip around part of the island and through a cave was well worth it. The guides were knowledgable and considerate. It did not affect us, but people need to be aware that the walk from the fort back to the lighthouse includes several steep parts, but with steps - not suited to any person with significant physical disability)

We would totally recommend this boat trip to the beautiful Berlenga Island. The location of the Harbour was easy to find and it wasn't too crowded - might be a good idea to come in the off-season (March 2024). The tour guides were very friendly and seemed very layed back. The only downside: we were given clear instructions per email in advance to arrive at the Harbour before 10 am. However the boat didn't move until 10:30am. On the island you either can choose to hike with the tour guides or explore the island by yourselves. Between May and October you even can sleep on the island. At 1:30pm we had to be back at the boat, which took us back to the main land again. Would definitely recommend this company :)

This was the highlight of our trip to Lisbon. The tour guides were really friendly. We decided not to go for the guided hike but hiked ourselves instead. It was not too bad and definitely rewarding.
