# Vila Franca do Campo Islet Kayak Tour - Entry Included

**Guidekin's take:** A guided kayak crossing to the Vila Franca do Campo islet with the islet entry fee and a dry bag in the price, so you paddle into the crater lagoon rather than queue for the boat. Not for children under six or non swimmers, and the listing itself is written in Portuguese. 4.93 from 128 reviews at €65 per person.

In our comparison: #4 of 10 in Family Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).
