Rio de Janeiro: Sunset Boat Tour with Swimming, Drinks & Snacks
Description
Board at Marina da Glória and cruise Guanabara Bay on a 3-hour boat tour timed to put you on the water at exactly the right moment for sunset. The group is capped at 11 passengers — no crowds, plenty of space on board, and full attention from the crew for everyone. Along the way, you'll pass the Museum of Tomorrow, stop for photos in front of Oscar Niemeyer's MAC in Niterói, and have 1 hour for swimming at Praia de Adão e Eva or Enseada da Urca. On the crossing back, with the sun going down over the bay, you'll see Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain lit up by the last light of the day — straight from the water. Beer, water, soft drinks and snacks are all included

Itinerary
Quick photo stop at Ilha Fiscal — the neo-Gothic island palace that hosted the last imperial ball in Brazil, in 1889, just days before the monarchy fell.
Cruise past the Museum of Tomorrow — one of the world's most striking contemporary buildings, right on the waterfront of Porto Maravilha.
Stop for photos in front of the MAC — Oscar Niemeyer's iconic flying saucer-shaped museum perched on the cliffs of Niterói, with Rio's skyline as the backdrop
Swimming stop in calm, clear water — pool noodles provided. Depending on conditions, this stop may take place at Enseada da Urca instead.
The final stretch of the tour — cruising back across Guanabara Bay at sunset, with Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain lit up by the last light of the day. The best seat in Rio, and it's on the boat.

Otimo all good best tour of the world will always come back drink unlimited music to our taste loved
Extremely serious and committed company. The service provided was impeccable and the boat was clean and comfortable. The staff who accompanied us during the tour was amazing, both extremely careful and friendly, contributing significantly to a great experience. I affirm that it is an experience that, definitely, should be included in the script of those who know RJ from even more beautiful angles.
The walk was excellent. We took a walk in the afternoon. The staff is very organized on pre-tour issues. We arrived at the venue and were welcomed by Rosane who was our guide, score 10 for her. Sympathetic, caring and concerned that everyone would feel at ease. It's very worth it. You had a stop for baths, drinks and snacks on board. We recommend!
Excellent, I highly recommend
We had a wonderful sunset boat tour on our final evening in Rio. Our guide was superb, spoke great English and told us interesting facts about so much that we passed. It was a small group of 9 of us passengers so there was plenty of space on the boat and we had a nice stop for some swimming - we could get changed privately in the interior of the boat and there was a toilet if needed. Unlimited beers, soft drinks and snacks were great too. A super end to our trip.
Had such a great experience! The tour was great and didn’t feel rushed at all! Definitely worth the money!
The tour was great, small group and selected. The guide Rosane and the pilot Lucas were proactive and attentive. Congratulations!
We had an amazong time, all the staff very professional, the views amazing, the offered drinks, beer, snacks on board. Everything was on schedule
It was amazing the experience, the guide Alexia with the captain Lucas were amazing and very attentive. It was one of the best walks I ever made . Super recommend.
A nice boatride with little to no waves. Drinks included, a short visit to a beach, and back in the sunset. A very nice and chill tour, with friendly guide
