リオデジャネイロからのグランデとグリーンコーストツアー

A very nice and fun experience. They could tell stories about the places visited during the trip. The food on the boat was very bad. The drinks were excellent. The beaches are highly recommended.

Beautiful excursion organized by Milleviagens inside our stay in Rio de Janeiro for the Easter holidays. Gianluca was very attentive to our needs offering us various options of choice of tours and this for Ilha Grande seemed very complete although a bit tiring considering the round trip from Rio. Adequately sized boat available to passengers of the excursion (in our case about fifty people). Sale of drinks, snacks and the inevitable caipirinha on board waiting for lunch consumed in a restaurant by the sea with a set menu. Recommended for those who want to see the beauties of the surroundings of Rio

The photos you see on the net do not give an idea of the beauty of the sea and the coasts of this real tropical paradise about 3 hours from Rio de Janeiro. Not having many days at our disposal we booked this tour from morning to night organized by the Milleviagens agency that lasts about 12 hours and in addition to transport in a comfortable air-conditioned bus (a bit cold for our taste!) also includes lunch in a simple restaurant by the sea. The stops for swimming were wonderful especially the one in the Blue Lagoon where you swim with colorful fish. Price in my opinion very correct and kindness of both the guide Amalia and the boat staff.

We found on Viator this agency with the Italian owners and we were very comfortable in the purchased tour. Staying only 3 days in Rio de Janeiro we wanted to visit the surroundings and specifically the beautiful and uncontaminated Ilha Grande The tour is undoubtedly a bit tiring because it lasts all day but the heavenly scenery you can see pays off for the time spent on the bus. Note of merit for lunch included, simple but tasty.

First of all I must say that in just under a week you can safely visit the main tourist attractions of Rio de Janeiro. We certainly have an advantage in speaking Portuguese, but using a local agency in Italian is certainly a positive aspect both in terms of optimising time and safety. Specifically, we booked the transfer to and from the international airport (which to get to and from Copacabana has a price quite aligned with that of Uber-type applications or taxis with the undoubted advantage of having the driver waiting for you with a sign with your name on arrival and therefore you do not have to stress with internet connections or doubts about the correctness of the rates), the walking tour of the Old Town of Rio de Janeiro (which is not listed among the proposed activities and it is very worth doing to know various corners of the city that probably alone we would have feared to visit) and the day tour to Ilha Grande (which includes the bus transfer from Rio to the port of embarkation, boat navigation with 3 stops for swimming in the sea -beautiful Blue Lagoon where you swim among the colorful fish- and a discreet lunch on the sea). Thanks to Gianluca who patiently followed us during the Reservation and Tours (all on time!)

The tour we did in Brazil touched not only Rio de Janeiro and Ilha Grande but also Salvador and Foz do Iguaçu for a total of 12 days. The organization by Milleviagens staff and especially Gianluca was very attentive to our needs and with a good value for money. Very positive the ability to pay in Euro with exchange of the Wise which makes it very easy to purchase.

Every day we relied on this agency for our excursions to Rio de Janeiro, so much would be to tell. I'll start by saying 2 basic things 1) do not be discouraged if you have to pay the full amount before your trip, it is for security reasons, the transfers are safe, Gianluca is an honest person, and will not hang you 'after payment for any reason, indeed his answers have never been slow to arrive. 2) Group tours have hotel pick up only if your hotel is in an area that has bus stops, if not (as in our case) the meeting point will be set in an area close to your hotel and not the hotel itself. This has not been explicitly specified to me, so I want to write it to future travelers. What about it? Everything has been planned and run smoothly in every detail. The guides who were entrusted to us were very nice and careful to please us, Gianluca followed us (by phone) for the duration of the trip, always ready to listen to our needs and also to worry about other aspects not strictly related to the excursions (such as euro exchange, phone cards etc ..). The means of transport used were all new, air-conditioned, clean, the time dedicated to each point of attraction seemed right. On private tours you feel really special because every kind of your request is made and you really perceive that the main goal of the guides is your personal satisfaction (example, Antonio, exquisite person - our guide in Italian, who did not know much about Italian 'but we remained in the heart for his availability' and attention to us). More recommended excursion: favela (what's more authentic) + Angra dos Reis (with a lunch that turned into a magical dinner on the seaside, with the stars and the sound of the waves) Less recommended excursion: Foresta da Tijuca (didn't impress us that much) and the tour of the beaches (tour that for most of the time takes place by car, a bit boring in our opinion) Last note: Gianluca does not espouse the Italian philosophy of 'The customer is always right', woe to make some objections to him, he will defend 'tooth and nail all his arguments, keep up with his peppery and smoking character was a pleasant challenge. That doesn't take away, however, from his professionalism, honesty, and most importantly, presence. In the future, for sure, I would have no doubt to re-rely on him, and this time a must-see: Iguazu Falls. Thank you very much, See you next time!

Nice trip with 4 stops. Duration from 11 am to 5 pm. All very fast stops but on the other hand they are not beautiful places. Beautiful the Ilha grande in the area of the church of St. Anne. Very friendly crew. The cost of 80 reals is in line with what is offered. Lunch excluded.

Pickup at the meeting point was at 8:30. The bus arrived at 9:45 am, in the meantime we called the agency twice who told us that the bus had been in an accident. Barely on the bus, 5 minutes later, it stops. We were parked on the side of a large 3-lane road (super dangerous). NOBODY spoke English, the person who accompanied us to the organization told us that someone on arrival would speak English (we are still waiting for him). We waited a little over an hour by the roadside without understanding what was going on. After more than 2h30 late, we had another bus. The driver was driving very dangerously with strong brake strokes. We arrived at 13:30 on the scene (the day is already well started at this time). We made 3 stops at sea, the denier was on a beach but it was dark (no interest). This excursion is really to flee, the organization sucks and we really felt in danger. Catch tourist! It is really a shame .... no professionalism. Pickup at the meeting point was at 8:30. The bus arrived at 9:45, meanwhile we called the agency who told us that the bus had an accident.

This tour was really worth it, stopping at the blue lagoon for example and continuing to the destination by boat. Good mood - I would always do
