Had
an
absolutely
wonderful
time
on
this
sunset
tour
(at
high
tide)
on
the
Tagus
River.
Our
guide,
Pedro
(?
-
not
sure,
sorry!),
was
very
friendly
and
patient.
There
were
a
couple
of
children
on
the
tour,
and
he
was
always
answering
their
silly
questions
and
making
jokes
about
the
"trunkodiles"
(trunks+
crocodiles)
in
the
river.
Their
eyes
wide
open
as
they
listened
to
what
he
had
to
say.
He
pointed
us
to
many
different
species
of
fauna
and
flora,
frequently
slowing
or
stopping
the
boat
so
we
could
observe
a
bird,
the
fish
or
the
horses.
He
also
explained
how
the
tides
influence
what
happens
in
the
river
(even
this
high
up),
how
the
water
hyacinths
are
endangering
the
river
and
its
species,
among
many
other
things.
Although
the
tour
is
called
"sunset",
we
didn't
see
the
sun
actually
set
from
the
boat,
as
the
tour
finished
at
around
8:00
and
in
August
the
sun
sets
almost
at
9:00.
But
you
can
see
it
from
the
pier,
which
is
also
beautiful.
I
called
the
company
up
twice
because
I
had
several
questions.
(I
had
thought
about
taking
someone
that
was
using
crutches,
but
ended
up
going
just
with
a
friend).
The
person
I
spoke
to
(Rui,
if
I'm
not
mistaken)
was
not
only
quite
nice,
but
also
very
accommodating
to
any
special
needs
we
might
have.
I'm
hoping
to
repeat
the
tour
next
Spring
at
low
tide.
