    Una experiencia espectacular. Un ambiente inmejorable, tanto por parte de los demás asistentes como por parte de la tripulación. El paseo increíble y la clase describiendo el entorno de la ría y la cría del mejillón, estupenda. Instructiva para niños y mayores. Por cierto, los mejillones exquisitos y para hartarse. Un 11/10

    El barco está muy bien aunque se aleja poco del puerto, dura poco la experiencia, nosotros éramos 4 y solo nos dieron 2 bandejas de mejillones, echamos en falta otra más , y 2 botellas de albariño bastante corriente. La explicación de la crianza estuvo amena y divertida.

    Muy buena experiencia. Mientras vas viendo toda la ría de Arousa, te van explicando todo lo referente a la pesca y a los lugares por los cuales va avanzando el barco. Además por su puesto de que nada más llegar te sirven una botella de vino, que te hace el paseo mucho más agradable. Las ostras que pedimos( que van a parte del precio) estaban increíbles
