    Terrible ! Never picked us up !

    Janet_P, Mar 2026
    The tour company never came to pick us up. And we called them many times and messaged them with no answer and even the hotel called them and the phone didn’t work. Terrible ! Don’t buy from this tour!

    If you’re looking for a breathtaking escape in Brazil, Angra dos Reis is an absolute paradise! With its crystal-clear waters, lush green islands, and vibrant marine life, this destination offers the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Whether you’re snorkeling among colorful fish, exploring hidden beaches, or simply enjoying the stunning boat rides, Angra is truly a dream come true. A huge shoutout to our incredible guide, Nyte, who made the experience even more unforgettable! Nyte was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing the beauty of Angra. They took us to the best hidden gems, ensured we had an amazing time, and made us feel completely at ease. From historical insights to local recommendations, Nyte went above and beyond to create a personalized and enriching tour. If you’re planning a trip to Angra dos Reis, I highly recommend booking a tour with Nyte. You won’t regret it!

    Great day trip for family and young adults

    Kristen_B, Feb 2025
    Great trip. Bus is long (2.5hr) but very comfortable and quiet and has a toilet and USB charging ports - and they made a 1/2 hr stop on the way. Boat is really nice with padded seats below and a deck above. Guide (Nyte?) is awesome, trilingual, and a good dancer (they busted into some Brazilian dances before lunch) - good for the partiers and also families. 30min at each stop for swimming was totally enough. Water is beautiful and warm. I read bad reviews of other trips, not sure why, the other boats and groups seemed similar (mixed ages, fun music, etc)

    Too many people

    Brandon_C, Nov 2024
    The drinks on the boat were great. The rest of the tour left a lot to be desired. Beach time was extremely limited as you were only given 13 minutes to swim at one location, 14 minutes at another beach and a maximum of 30 minutes at the third beach. The food was not good when we finally arrived for lunch at 15:30. As soon as lunch was finished, we headed back to the bus to return home. Lunch was provided entirely too late considering we were picked up at 7:30 and started drinking on the boat at 11:30. I would recommend finding a different tour as it said there would be 45 people, but what they fail to tell you is that they will combine with 2 other groups and you will have more than 120 people on the boat.

    Cumplió con lo que...

    Mariano_N, Mar 2025
    Cumplió con lo que ofrecen, por otro lado faltó información de que se iba a hacer en cada escala información sobre la isla, ni el nombre de la playa que visitamos nos dijeron. El personal de abordo muy servicial y atento. El lugar para almorzar malo. Mucha gente y muchas moscas.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025
