Very nice experience, the boat is very small and the crew is very friendly. If you tell them you're not speaking Spanish they also have an audio guide over speakers in your language in addition to what the driver is telling you. There are also Gambas and some whine included.

It was a nice trip with a very nice captain who put a lot of effort into it. The tour is timed clearly, not too long and not too short. Just right to discover the sights. The trip is definitely recommended. A small highlight at the end is the tasting of wine and shrimp.

A really lovely excursion with a very friendly skipper who let us bring our dog too!! English audio of what you were looking at. Delicious prawns and white wine. Highly recommend.

You spend a very pleasant time, Jesús (the guide) explained everything great, they also give you a shrimp tapa from Huelva (delicious) and wine

I recommend this activity, it is suitable for all ages. Very interesting tour, wonderful tasting. We liked it a lot.
