      Incredibly relaxing- our hostesses took wonderful care of us all and were Incredibly prompt to communicate when we messaged with questions. The boat was a delight and they went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable in the beautifully cool evening.

      Amazing time with my family

      mariana_h, May 2025
      It was very amazing and relaxing time . Our tour guide was wonderful . The sunset was so beautiful and the view of the city .

      Definetely would do it again!

      Rafael_B, May 2025
      Honestly this tour exceeded my expectations. I wasn't expecting to have so much fun in a little sail boat tour but the crew made it really special. Loh, Louise and the captain Carlos took care of us all the time, kept bringing up drinks and snacks.The sunset and the vibe/music was on top. Flavored caipirinhas were amazing too!! My advice is to do this tour at the end of your stay, very relaxing and beautiful views of Rio de Janeiro.

      Best Cocktail cruise in Rio

      A Beautiful Sail

      Necol_B, Mar 2025
      My daughter and I had the best time. The weather was perfect. The food was good and satisfying. It wasn’t crowded…just enough. The host and hostess were the best. It felt like you’ve known them for years. A well organized evening.

      A cruise to remember

      Ronnie_S, Mar 2025
      A great experience indeed as the weather was perfect for the cruise. Mary the lead crew member was extremely courteous and provided service second to none. All the guests had a super time

      Lovely boat ride!

      Catherine_A, Feb 2025
      We had such a nice sail [the sails weren't actually up, it was motoring along quietly, which was fine too]. I wouldn't say it's much of a tour... there were few landmarks pointed out. We had a great time anyway and our boat stopped for a long swim, which made the kids happy. The service was excellent and punctual. Very clear communication via whatsapp. Our host, Louise was friendly and answered all the questions we had. :)

      lou is the best!!!

      Halimat_O, Jan 2025
      i travel relatively frequently and always do a boat activity. this was hands down the best boat activity i’ve done on all my travels, thanks to lou! she was very attentive and ensured everyone had a great time. if i’m back in rio i would be booking this again and hope to end up on her boat. thanks for making it enjoyable!

      Horrible moment at the sea

      Ashraf_Y, Nov 2024
      The sail boat almost drowned and all people are crying like crazy my wife had a panic attack the boat sailer and the tour operator are both got panicked and the tour operator said that she had 5 weather apps none of them said it will be Windy and she offer money back and they start to return to the shore after 20 min but they couldn’t because of the high sea and high wind , thank god after 50 horrible minutes we back at the shore My advice don’t take any sea tour outside USA they are all Carles and needs only your money regardless of saftey

      Absolutely awesome trip!

      Gustav_P, Oct 2024
      Absolutely awesome trip - our hostesses and captain made the trip very memorable. Stunning views, cold beer, nice caipirinha‘s & snacks. Absolutely Recommended 10/10

      Beat excursion

      Dawn_T, Oct 2024
      This was my best excursion so far! The hosts were great, food and drinks were amazing . They gave us a very memorable experience. I highly recommend this tour

      Journey of a Lifetime on the way back...

      Nandi_D, May 2024
      Nice on the way but the way back was pretty bad. The winds were very bad and the water was spraying us the entire time. The crew even said that if they had known that the waters would be this bad, they would have canceled the trip... Excellent customer service though and staff was very kind

      Response from Host, May 2024

      We're glad you enjoyed our crew and service and we're very sorry about the unpredictability of the weather, the weather forecast did not predict strong winds that afternoon.

      Great tour made even...

      Darko_Z, May 2024
      Great tour made even better by dedicated and friendly staff! We enjoyed afternoon of sunshine and sail, great snacks & cocktails. We’ve learned some new facts about Rio history and got introduced to Niteroi and its attractions ( that we needed up suiting the next day) Highly recommend this tour!

      Absolutely a must if you are in Rio with outstanding organizers.

      Daniel_T, May 2024
      Couldn't have had a better afternoon with this tour. Exceptional professionalism of the crew, taking care of every minute.

      Amazing experience!

      Katie_B, Apr 2024

      Great less-traveled cruise!

      Ben_N, Mar 2024
      A GREAT time seeing a less-explores part of Rio. A fun and attentive crew made the trip fun for everyone on board. Chill vibe and beautiful views!

      Great tour

      Michelle_S, Jan 2024
      We had a great experience with lu as our guide, great service and the day was just perfect. I recommend this tour to any one even the cariocas to see our beautiful sunset from the guanabara bay

      Great trip

      William_B, Jan 2024
      Always a great day on the water. Tour was operated by the owner, and wife of the boat. Abundant food and beverage with spectacular views. Opportunity to swim

      Incredible hosts

      Bree_L, Jan 2024
      The women who worked this boat were the sweetest people in the entire world!! They waited on us hand and foot and the drinks were delicious (and strong!). They did give us time to swim but we didn't know that so we didn't bring a bathing suit but if you book make sure you bring one! They gave tons of information about what we were seeing and we all had an amazing time. I was hesitant to book this at first but I am so glad we did!

      Catalina_B, Nov 2024
      Muy buena experiencia a pesar que el clima no estaba tan bien! La atención de Lu fue la mejor!! Super recomendado

      Incrível experiência ao por do sol

      Maria_B, Jun 2023
      Experiência maravilhosa! O por do sol foi incrível! O grande plus foram as caipirinhas que a Louise fez, os lanches saborosos e as fotos maravilhosas que a Melissa tirou. O capitão Marcelo foi perfeito e a tripulação nota mil. Super recomendo!
