Step by Step
A boat trip in Rio de Janeiro will allow you to get to know the city and some of its most renowned tourist attractions in an original way. You will sail on a pleasant ride of approximately 2 hours to observe the main points of interest of the Guanabara Bay.
You will do so aboard a modern catamaran, fully equipped and with food and beverage options for purchase during the tour. You will have access to both the cabin and the upper deck, if you prefer to enjoy the views in the open air.
Please note that this is a contemplative excursion, with no stops to dive or disembark along the way. The boat follows a complete itinerary that will take you to such well-known sites as the Museu do Amanhã, one of Porto Maravilha's architectural icons, the Ilha de Villegagnon, the Santos Dumont Airport, the Ilha Fiscal and the Arsenal da Marina.
The sailing experience will continue towards Niteroi, where you can enjoy the Rio-Niteroi Bridge or the famous Concha Acustica. You will be surprised to see from a distance the disc-shaped Museum of Contemporary Art, designed by Oscar Niemeyer.
There will also be time to get close to the shore to see places like the beaches of Adão and Eva, the Santa Cruz Fortress, the Forte da Lage, the São José Fortress and the São João Fortress. And don't forget to take a souvenir photo at the foot of the famous Sugarloaf Mountain, as well as at the Museu do Amanha and Museu de Arte Contemporanea de Niteroi.
