Great view and super friendly guide! - This trip was a wonderful experience! The view and the beach of Sesimbra are absolutely stunning! What also made our trip so great was our very outgoing and friendly guide Manuel! He told us lots of interesting things about Lisboa on our way to the beach. He even had some sunumbrellas, sunscreen and snorkel stoff with him, so cool! Book this trip with Manuel, you won't regret it. :)

Perfect tour! - The tour was a birthday present for my niece from Brazil. We went to Ribeira do Cavalo with the guide Manuel, who was super kind and polite. At times the decision was complicated and he wouldn't leave us behind. I would repeat it without thinking twice! Grade 10! Ps. Unfortunately the beach is becoming very popular, so the best time is in the morning. After lunch the beach gets very, very crowded.

Amazing - The experience was great and Manel is the best. It’s a beach with difficult access so it’s good to go with someone who knows the way. I recommend this tour 10/10

A unique experience you wont forget - This was the best birthday celebration ever with our wonderful tour guide! The views in Sesimbra are absolutely stunning and worth every single step! I recommend wearing sneakers and packing slippers for when you get down to the beach. Great for picnics and the water is so blue and beautiful. Obrigada!!!
