“We were able to book pretty last minute the day of for my friends birthday celebration. Communication was wonderful and Clarisse was so good at making us feel welcomed, relaxed and taken care of for the whole tour. Our champagne glasses were never left empty and the whole experience really was so worth it. From beginning to end we felt cared for and the whole vibe of the experience was fun and happy. We would definitely book with DDRio again and recommend you consider them for your first or next tour. Clarisse and Captain Gabriel are top notch. Thank you for a memorable experience.”

2.Rio de Janeiro Sunset Sailing Tour with Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 947 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $70Top rated

Rio de Janeiro sunset sailing on Guanabara Bay with drinks and snacks. Small-group cruise past Sugarloaf and Christ in 3 hours.

“I booked this thinking it was more of a party sunset cruise it was not, it was more laid back & chill which ended up being very nice. Mother Nature had other plans as during our cruise it was a bit cloudy, got to see some good views but probably not as great as they can be. Drinks on the cruise & little to snack on it was a nice way to just chill & enjoy the scenery. U can go in the water should u choose too, none in our trip did, everyone seemed to just enjoy the views, nice music & drinks.”

She gave us a lot of history about the port, Rio and Brasil in general. You'll definitely get a different perspective of Rio from the water. Oh, and the caipirinhas were delicious!!”

13.Arraial do Cabo Boat Trip with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 321 reviews · 14 hours · from $65

From Rio, sail Arraial do Cabo on a schooner with four swim stops, buffet lunch, and optional snorkel gear for $65.

“The boat ride to the various beaches was very enjoyable. The crew entertained us the whole day and kept us safe and informed. Everything from pick up to drop off at the hotel was well organised. The pick up was a bit delayed so some communication would have been appreciated. The advertised lunch was served around 5pm so I think it would be better to advertise it as an early dinner. It would also have been great to have 30 minutes to roam around Arraial do Cabo.”
