Great birthday treat

What a great day out .Lorraine and our driver really made the day special. The weather helped I suppose. Pick up was bang on time even though we had to make our own way there, the coach was spotless and very comfortable. The trip was for my birthday and it was certainly made special by everyone.

Exploring Angra Dos Reis and Ilha Grande in One Day

Jonathan_B, Apr 2026

Great Day Trip

This is a nice little boat getaway to escape the hustle and bustle of Rio for a day. The bus picked us up right in front of our hotel and it was about a 2 1/2 hour bus ride to the boat location. The bus was very comfortable and allowed you to rest. On the way there, we were able choose optional activities (for a fee). I chose to jet ski and have my picture taken with the fishes. The prices were very reasonable. The actual boat was 3 decks and spacious enough to fit around 40 people comfortably. There was good music playing and a fully stocked bar to purchase drinks. There were 4 different spots where we were able to do the activities and swim in the ocean if we wanted. Stop 3 is where we were served lunch. It was buffet style with a decent selection of options. We did have to pay for drinks and dessert if you wanted them. After the last stop, we were able to catch a beautiful sunset over the ocean. We were dropped off at our hotel around 8pm. The experience was definitely worth the money.

Issac was an excellent...

Issac was an excellent guide and despite my dad and I being the only 2 English speakers on the trip, he did his best to keep us included and felt welcome. The trip was very organized. Lunch was delicious. Every stop was done with enough time to enjoy it well. I would definitely recommend this trip for anyone visiting Rio without much time in their stay.

MENDYK_H, Nov 2025

Great Tour!

The hubby and I booked this tour the day before(11/11/25), kind off the last minute as our scheduled tour was rescheduled. We were picked up from our hotel in a comfortable Mercedes van. The guide, Publiano, was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional and ensured that everyone was having a great time. I was extremely impressed that Mr. Publiano was able to converse with all of us who spoke various languages: Spanish, English and Portuguese. Everyone was well informed and was treated equally! Mr. Publiano took great photos for everyone at all the locations. My husband and I had a great time and I would recommend!
