Gostei muito. O tempo não ajudou em nada, mas obviamente é algo que ninguém pode controlar. Não conseguimos ver baleias, outra coisa que não está nas mãos da organização, mas vimos imensos golfinhos super fofos que nadaram junto de nós durante imenso tempo. E a vista mar por aí já vale a pena. Tanto a Joana e o André no avistamento dos golfinhos, como o Francisco e o João no Ilhéu das Cabras foram espetaculares e tudo fizeram para fazer desta aventura algo inesquecível. Recomendo !!

I really enjoyed it. The weather didn't help at all, but obviously that's something no one can control. We didn't get to see any whales, another thing that's out of the organization's hands, but we saw lots of super cute dolphins that swam with us for a long time. And the sea view from there is worth it. Both Joana and André during the dolphin watching, and Francisco and João at Ilhéu das Cabras were spectacular and did everything they could to make this adventure unforgettable. I recommend it!!

No tuvimos suerte, y no vimos ballenas, pero sí muchos delfines. Vimos 4 tipos de ellos, y algunos muuuuy cerca. Incluso vinos unos que estaban migrando y nadaban muy rápido. Lo dicho, la pena es que no vimos ballenas. Tendrá que quedar para otra ocasión. Translate this opinion into English.

We weren't lucky, and we didn't see any whales, but we did see a lot of dolphins. We saw 4 types of them, and some were sooo close. Some even came that were migrating and swam very fast. That said, the pity is that we did not see whales. It will have to be left for another time. Opinion translated. Show original.

Personal muy amable. El avistamiento de más o menos especies, depende del mar y de los propios animales, por lo que no siempre podrás ver todo. Lo que sí te aseguran es que verás delfines. El snorkel también depende de las condiciones del mar. Mejoraría las gafas, pues no se ajustan adecuadamente y se empañan con frecuencia. Translate this opinion into English.

Very friendly staff. The sighting of more or less species depends on the sea and the animals themselves, so you will not always be able to see everything. What they do assure you is that you will see dolphins. Snorkeling also depends on sea conditions. I would improve the glasses, since they do not fit properly and they fog up frequently.

El avistamiento de ballenas fue genial, en cambio, en cuanto a la comida del mediodía el restaurante no estaba avisado de que teníamos reserva por parte de la compañía y en el Islote de cabras se suponía que íbamos hacer snorkel como está indicado en la descripción pero nos dijeron que no lo teníamos incluido, solo nos dejaron bañarnos unos 5 minutos. Los guías fueron muy amables y profesionales pero civitatis tendría que indicar mejor que esta incluido y que no. Translate this opinion into English.

The whale watching was great, on the other hand, as for the midday meal, the restaurant was not informed that we had a reservation from the company and on the Islote de Cabras we were supposed to snorkel as indicated in the description but they told us that we did not have it included, they only let us take a bath for about 5 minutes. The guides were very kind and professional but civitatis would have to indicate better what is included and what is not. Opinion translated. Show original.

Solo vimos dos grupos de delfines, que no es controlable, pero ninguna información durante el viaje La actividad completa no tiene sentido Fuimos a comer dd menú a un restaurante que no nos gustó para volver dis horas después al puerto para la segunda actividad No ha continuidad y deberían ofertarse por separado y no obligar a la comida

We only saw two groups of dolphins, which is not controllable, but no information during the trip The entire activity does not make sense We went to eat the menu at a restaurant that we did not like to return to the port a few hours later for the second activity There is no continuity and they should be offered separately and not force food

Me ha encantado, aunque le voy a sacar algún pequeño punto que bajo mi opinión podría mejorar aún más la experiencia. La parte de visitar ballenas es espectacular. Lo único malo entre que acabas las ballenas y la comida se queda más de una hora muerta, al igual que de después de comer y la visita a los islotes. Se come a las 12:15 y la salida a los islotes fue como a las 14:20. Otro matiz es que sacamos el tour en español y solo fue en español la parte de las ballenas. El resto fue en ingles

Esta actividad cuenta con un guía que habla español. Este, sin embargo, intenta adaptarse al grupo en conjunto. Aun así, tomamos nota de todas tus impresiones para ayudarnos a seguir mejorando el servicio. Gracias por tu comentario.

Increíble !!!! La oferta incluía avistamiento de ballenas y delfines (no pudimos ver las ballenas por el mal tiempo que nos pilló), comida en el restaurante (todo muy bueno, con hamburguesas de carne y queso de la isla) y por último el paseo por Islote de Cabras, en el cual vimos 3 cuevas espectaculares. Experiencia increíble gracias a los instructores Ivo y Jose!!!!! Gracias de corazón ️ Translate this opinion into English.

Amazing !!!! The offer included whale and dolphin watching (we could not see the whales due to the bad weather that caught us), food in the restaurant (all very good, with meat burgers and cheese from the island) and finally the walk through Islote de Cabras, in which we saw 3 spectacular caves. Incredible experience thanks to the instructors Ivo and Jose !!!!! Thank you from the heart ️ Opinion translated. Show original.

L’escursione è durata meno tempo di quanto descritto e di quanto ti vendono. Il pranzo non viene servito su un ristorante, ma su un bar della città. Non viene fatto snorkling durante la visita. Vi consiglio di andare direttamente sulle società al porto di Angra e di non prendere dei pacchetti da questi rivenditori.

La durata indicata sul nostro sito è indicativa e può variare. Lo snorkel è soggetto a condizioni meteorologiche avverse. Ci dispiace che la visita non sia stata di vostro gradimento. Terremo conto dei vostri commenti per migliorare.
