2 Hour Jet Ski Ride and Tow Snorkeling in Tijuca Islands

Description

This experience is the first in Brazil to offer this type of snorkeling, towed by a jet ski very slowly, to the point that you don't need to pedal and just enjoy the view. During the experience, you will get to know Rio from a totally different and incredible point of view. In addition to the jet ski tour around the islands, you will be able to jump from the island into the water at heights that vary according to the client's taste, and the big difference is to do a unique tow snorkeling in Rio de Janeiro. Wearing the mask, you will be towed by the jet ski with your face in the water, observing the marine life on the island.

Great flexible tour on the jet ski

We had a great experience. Our guide was super flexible and we tweaked things around based on the water conditions - a little more touring and seeing turtles on the surface. He also set us up with another boat operator to go see me some of the birds and crocodiles in the area. The only thing to be aware of is that this is a long ways away from the tourist areas around Copacabana, etc.

Had a great time and the tour guide was awesome!

My friend and I had such a fun time! JD was a very knowledgeable, experienced, and kind guide. While snorkeling we got to see turtles, fish, and birds on the island. The weather was cloudy but we made the best out of it and had a great time, JD even recommended some local food places to try out and they were amazing!

Experience on the jet ski / snorkel tour

This is the most correct young man I've ever seen. That was fantastic. Super loose but still enough seriousness and experience for an educational and fear-overcoming TOUR. Super please keep doing something like this Rio needs ❗️❗️❤️❤️

Jet ski tour

Had an amazing time snorkeling around the Tijuca islands! JD was an excellent guide and knowledgeable about the wildlife in the area. The view of Rio from the jet ski was truly spectacular. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to explore the coast.
