This is a relaxing and fun sailing experience with beautiful scenery. The host and the hostess are a young married couple who are extremely nice and friendly people. The boat ride also includes drinks and snacks/ fruits. They will take you to several areas and will also give you opportunity to swim.

First trip on a yacht for me and I loved it. Only about 9 on board all much younger than me also I was the only English speaker but Louisa was amazing and looked after me well. Loved the caipirinha’s too!

    This was a wonderful relaxing trip across the harbour. Our host Thaye and skipper Cecile (I think) who sang on the way back to the marina were both excellent. Highly recommended as a slow down, switch off relaxing trip.

    Amazing!

    Angela_F, Jul 2026
    It was a pleasant boat experience. Lennon was very friendly and, together with the captain, made all the guests feel comfortable. The only downside was that the boat was a bit too small.

    Fun afternoon cruise

    Luizia - A Perfect Evening Host for an Afternoon Sail.

    DrNeilM_M, Jun 2025
    A pleasant evening sail filled with beautiful scenery, drinks, and snacks. The captain and his first mate, Luiza, were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Luiza was an exceptional host for the evening, and evident that she really loves her job.

    A wonderful and relaxing way to see the outline of Rio!

    Carole_M, Jan 2025
    Great experience to see Rio from a water perspective. Our guide Thais was extremely pleasant… what a wonderful person! She was smiling all the time, took care of all our needs… including a snack and some drinks. She made great local drinks!!! The captain Klaus was also vey pleasant; and we felt secure with his sailing. This tour was at the end of our trip and allowed us to relax and enjoy our last few hours in Rio. If you have the time, this is a wonderful tour.

    Rio’s Best Views at Sea

    Yakov_K, Aug 2024
    Was great! Me and my girlfriend were late due to traffic but thankfully it worked out and they were patient. The experience was not only amazing with the views, the boat staffs kindness, warm waters and great snacks. Perfect tour route, 100% recommend. Great for couples.

    Great trip!

    Did this boat ride with my sister at Christmastime. We had an overcast day and at one point the skies opened up and just DUMPED. There was no sunset to be had, but it was an awesome time anyway! The trip was super fun and the hosts were amazing! Everyone was so nice and helpful. The drinks and snacks were perfect, and the boat was great. A cool way to see Rio and some of the waters around it. The captain timed it out so we were right at the airport when a plane took off over us- what a cool experience!

    Nice way to spend e few hours on the water

    Jeff_H, Mar 2024
    This was a fun afternoon on the water and seeing some of the areas of Rio de Janeiro. The crew was very attentive and informative.....

    Very nice 3- hours...

    Ainura_D, Feb 2024
    Very nice 3- hours sailing trip. Beautiful surrounding views, Our guide Thays was very hospital and helpful. Enjoyed this time a lot!

    Great experience. Lots of fun. Terrific crew

    Jana_D, Dec 2023
    Fantastic experience. Crew were super nice and always made sure we were enjoying ourselves. The swim was fun and worth making the effort. Best way to spend our last night in Rio.

    Great Excursion and friendly people. Can recommend!

    Thomas_F, Dec 2023
    We were 11 people. The operator was monitoring weather in advance and pro-actively communicating plans to work with it. Meeting point was well communicated and arranged. Pleasant people on board catering to our needs. We had a great time enjoying Rio from a different view. On board we were served drinks and excellent choices of fruits. We all enjoyed the trip and would do it again. Only small little minus I would mention is that we were on a two mast sailboat and we didn't use the sails at all during the trip. Might be because of the weather but I still would have like that.

    Really recommendable
