Rio de Janeiro: Sunset Boat Tour with Swimming, Drinks & Snacks
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful and beautiful 😍
The tour was amazing, Léo (the sailor) and Alexia (the guide) were super attentive and friendly, Alexia took a lot of our amazing photos. Me and my mom love it! The day was beautiful and only in this type of tour, we Cariocas, who always travel outside of Brazil, can realize how beautiful our RJ is, only so we have the opportunity to see the wonders that our RJ can provide us. It was super worth it, the stops are great, and the perspective from inside the sea is surreal of beautiful. Congratulations on the tour, we will do more times. 👏🏻👏🏻
