Amazing experience!

It was my first trip alone, and since the pre-sale it was an excellent experience, from guidance to tours, better times to do them, the best roles on the island and to the way I was received. The tours were great, I highly recommend doing the “paradisiac islands” from the boat, to enjoy a lot, and for what is offered, the value is super fair. I will definitely return to the big island and take more tours with the adventure.

Birthday Celebration to Remember

We thoroughly enjoyed a private boat experience. It was so much fun. I will definitely be reaching back out to you all for a repeat experience. We want to do this trip again! Everyone was so nice and helpful. Being able to pick out our drinks and food prior to leaving was great and reasonably priced. The trip was very memorable.

Family trip! Wondersoooo

I recently took a private boat trip in Rio de Janeiro with my family and it was wonderful. Great boat, comfortable. I was used to doing in Isla Grande and Angra dos Reis with them, but this time we did in Rio and it was very good. We made the road map of Red Beach and Urca. Every beautiful view! We love!!!

Best experience!!

I wanted to celebrate my birthday in a different way and Adventure Boat managed to provide me with that. We had an amazing day of much joy, laughter and partnership on the beaches of Copacabana, Redela and Urca, right that phenomenal sunset. All I have to do is thank you for your commitment to making my day even more special.

Que ótimo, ficamos muito felizes. Até a próxima aventura ;)

DISASTROUS EXPERIENCE

Disastrous experience – NOT RECOMMENDED We booked a speedboat with AdventureBoat through Kelli, paying 2,500 reais in cash, without receiving invoice or proof. We were promised an exclusive tour of the best beaches and views of Rio, with a duration of 5 hours, open sea navigation and a high speed boat. The reality was very different: • The service lasted just 1 hour. • We never went out into the open ocean. • The captain was in a drunken state, not knowing where to go and distracted by his mobile phone all the time. • The boat was dirty, with the toilets in deplorable conditions. • The boat was not fast as we were assured. • We tried to contact Kelli, but he never responded or took responsibility for the situation. To make the experience worse, before boarding, Kelli offered us alcohol and banned substances, which we found completely unprofessional and unacceptable. In claiming the money back, they refused and the only response we got was evasion. We are considering legal action. ⚠️ Warning: Please be very careful when booking with this company. They demand payment in cash, avoid giving bills and fail to keep what they promise. Don't fall for the same scam.
