I had a wonderful experience in Arraial do Cabo! The guide named Juliana Schramm was extremely attentive, friendly and passionate about what she does. He explained everything with great affection, told stories and curiosities that made the tour even more special. Gave to feel the care with the group and the love for the region. I highly recommend to those who want to meet Arraial in a light, safe and full of good energies! The experience was incredible, congratulations to the entire team including the driver and the interns who was with Juliana.
For the second time I chose City Rio Turismo to take a tour in Rio de Janeiro, and once again the experience was fantastic. This time the destination was Arraial do Cabo, and what a sensational walk! The place is a real eye eye, what a beautiful thing. The color of the water, the relief of the region, especially the famous crack... all this combined forms a simply wonderful landscape. Bathing in those crystal clear waters is creating unique memories. Arraial do Cabo is really paradisiac. The City Rio was excellent throughout the tour: from the punctual search in the hotel, the round trip in super-comfortable tour bus with bathroom, to the impeccable service throughout the journey. And I should highlight our guide Lorraine — excellent professional, polyglot, attentive, polite and very quiet. She knows how to handle tourists with courtesy and affection. Congratulations to City Rio! Next year I'll be there again.
It was amazing our tour lady was very informative and as sweet as can be. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.
Excellent tour I advise everyone to make a sensational experience. Congratulations, ❤️👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
It's a 12 hour walk but it's actually 50 minutes of restricted beach. It's something travelers who go to and from the same day aren't warned about.

No words for our first experience. It was very satisfying every moment, every detail, from beginning to end. We appreciate the excellent care, care, and affection. It all went perfectly well. It was the best tour we have ever made, and without a doubt, we will do many others with the Enterprise!❤️
Disappointing Tour Experience – Don’t book I booked this tour based on confirmation from the tour operator that it would be conducted in English. However, to our surprise, the tour guide did not speak any English. He attempted to use Google Translate, but the information provided was minimal and unreliable. Thankfully, some fellow travelers stepped in to help translate key details. The tour was supposed to be a three-hour excursion, yet it turned out to be a disorganized affair. Instead of a coherent itinerary, we experienced three stops of around 40 minutes each, one on an island that didn’t match the advertised island and two swimming stops with no fish! Due to delays with boarding and disembarking a mini boat to get to the island, we only managed about 15 minutes on an overcrowded island that offered no shade and a very limited area for swimming—making it nearly impossible to enjoy the water. Lunch was another major letdown. At around 6 pm, we were taken to a venue labeled as a “restaurant,” but it was far from acceptable. The place was extremely dirty, with insects crawling over the tables, and the staff’s clothes were beyond dirty. The hygiene was appalling—dishes were washed in a makeshift area right next to the toilets. We couldn’t eat anything there and had to rely on a small snack until we returned to our hotel at 10 pm. Overall, this tour was a waste of a full day and the worst tour experience I have ever had. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
I enjoyed this tour. It was a shame that the English speaking guide advertised was not provided. I was told this was due to the scheduled guide having a health issue. I can see from previous reviews that other travelers have also not had an English speaking guide. The guide on the day did her best to communicate some key information via google translate and the beach itself was beautiful.
A highly recommended tour, a paradise place, excellent guides, very good food, the best caipirinhas we tried, and good boat agency. We recommend it 100% to go alone, as a couple or as a family. We'd do it again.
Beautiful place. Wonderful beach. Boat tour with music and bar with that top caipirinha. The guide Marcelo (pretty Marcelo) very friendly. Explains everything about tour and about the top places of Arraial. Landscape top. Foot on fine and white sand. Lunch with homemade food. Uma delícia . Transportation with air conditioning and bathroom. The best of Rio de Janeiro with City Rio.
