We really enjoyed our experience and were very appreciative of the accommodative approach and the amazing personality of Alexia who made our trip the best! The experience was great from start to end the boat ride was well organised and was enjoyable and safe!
You will never regret going on a sunset boat cruise 🚢 in Rio de Janeiro.
We had beautiful views of Christ the redeemer and sugar mountain amongst others.
The crew was great hosts, energetic and awesome im all forms. I highly recommend Rio water fun crew 😍
It was a boat ride where they didn't tell you where the life vests were. The area they had taken us to swim in, the water was not clear. We able to take some nice pictures
A nice boatride with little to no waves. Drinks included, a short visit to a beach, and back in the sunset.
A very nice and chill tour, with friendly guide
What an incredible crew! Everything was perfect. Thank you! We saw beautiful landscape and enjoyed the sunset on the way back to port.
Was awesome , recommend the sunset session , our guide was very fun and friendly , spoke great English which was very helpful
I had an amazing experience ! I was very relaxed and they had plenty of snacks and drinks ! I also found out a lot about Brazil and its history. They’re so friendly and nice. You will have a great time ! Will definitely book again when I come back to vision!
My tour was with Rosane and she is incredible and very accommodating!! She spoke fluent English and was great to chat with! The tour lasted right around the 3 hour mark and we went by some beautiful landmarks! We also stopped in a bay for 45ish minutes to swim, the water was very salty which makes it so easy to float and relax. There were also drinks, snacks, and beer on the boat for anyone who wanted it! I would 100% recommend this to anyone who is thinking about going on this tour!
A great deal for the price! The guides were perfect & the group was just the right size. Bring your own snacks & drinks for convenience. Bring swimsuits too. A relaxin & fun trip.
OUR EXPERIENCE WAS PHENOMENAL! Our guide was Rosane & captain Isaac. Rosane was an absolute life of the party, she educated us on plenty of sights and gave us the historical backgrounds on it all. They both allowed us to play our own music, Rosane even danced with us! Anyone would have a great time with them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS EXPERIENCE!
This was the best experience!! Super sweet people rosane and isaac made the trip super welcoming and kept us well informed! Recommending them to all of my friends traveling here
They are thieves. The tour on Viator listed the scheduled time as 14:30. I was at the meeting point at 14:10 and waited until 14:40. I tried to contact the operator multiple times and finally left and requested a refund. I received a call an hour later from the tour guide telling me that the tour was scheduled for 15:30 and that she was sorry the wrong time was shown and I should try to get a refund. They rejected my refund. Do not do business with this company. They do not communicate and will not refund you if you miss the tour due to their failure to communicate.
Such a great boat trip! And the staff was very nice! They gave us history and we had great views of Rio
Great boat excursion, highly recommend. The paddle board and pool noodles were a great addition for the swimming by the beach.
Great tour with Leo!!! I arrived late and waited and assisted with my arrival. I highly appreciated him doing so. Once on the boat the vibe and ambiance was top notch, there were plenty of snacks and drinks to enjoy. We hit several sites and we even saw planes take off. Overall I would rate this experience a 10/10.
I booked this on the final night of staying on Rio. The boat is smaller than I thought and accommodateed about 11 people. The host was lovely, very lively.
I got a abit sea sick when we anchored for the swim. Must have been the boat rocking. Needless to say i was happy to return to land. Great experience but there are more luxury experiences in ans around the Marina area
Great time on the water. The guide was very knowledgeable and played cool music. It was a small group so it felt very private.
Even though the weather wasn’t the best, the trip was still amazing. Our tour guide spoke English and was very friendly. I would definitely recommend.
Beautiful sunset! Rafaela was a great guide and knowledgable with lots of experience. Swimming was a highlight! They provided Pool Noodles which made it easier to get in
Nice weather, the boat had snacks and drinks which was very nice. The tour guide was very informative and very friendly! I would definitely book this tour again.
If you’re looking for a truly magical experience in Rio de Janeiro, a sunset sailing trip is an absolute must! From start to finish, this tour exceeded all expectations and provided one of the most breathtaking moments of our entire trip.
As we set sail from Marina da Glória, the views of Rio’s iconic skyline were already stunning. But as the sun began to dip towards the horizon, the scenery transformed into something straight out of a dream. Watching the golden light reflect off Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, and the beautiful coastline was simply unforgettable.
The crew was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history and landmarks. They made sure everyone was comfortable and even served refreshing drinks and delicious snacks. The boat itself was spacious, clean, and perfect for relaxing while enjoying the view.
The highlight, of course, was the sunset itself. As the sky turned shades of orange, pink, and purple, the entire bay was bathed in warm, golden light. The peacefulness of sailing on the water with such an awe-inspiring backdrop made for a truly romantic and unforgettable experience.
Whether you’re visiting Rio for the first time or a local looking for a special way to experience the city, this sunset boat trip is a must-do. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to create lasting memories in one of the most beautiful places in the world!
This was a wonderful 3 hour sunset boat tour that provided excellent photo opportunities with amazing hospitality- a perfect way to spend an afternoon in Rio. Absolutely recommended
Otimo all good best tour of the world will always come back drink unlimited music to our taste loved

It is an excellent boat ride through Guanabara Bay.
We went with an excellent guide - Rosane - who was telling us the stories behind the various points we passed.
After an hour, there is a stop to swim at a very pleasant point.
The tour is about 30 minutes, seeing a beautiful sunshine in Guanabara Bay.

Excellent small group boat ride experience. Wonderful views of the city and Niteroi. Even though the day was cloudy and cold, it was very worth it! Rio Water Fun are very professional. I recommend 100%

Prepare for an unforgettable experience! Sailing on a virtually private boat is like floating in a dream. The breeze of the sea, the sunshine and the sense of freedom are simply magical! I enjoy every moment of this unique adventure, surrounded by stunning nature and the love of my life. This trip brought me memories that will last forever!

El guía fue muy paciente y bueno en su trabajo, me gustó que nos explicaba a todos aunque teníamos distintos idiomas
Tolles Motorboot und eine sehr nette englische Begleitung. Einige wunderschöne Stunden am Nachmittag um der Masse in Rio zu entfliehen. Wir hielten auch kurz an um in das Meer vom Boot aus rein springen zu können und es war auch leicht über die Leiter wieder auf das Boot zu kommen. Getränke waren auch genug an Bord.
