Step by Step
This Guanabara Bay cruise in Rio de Janeiro will take you to discover some of the city's tourist attractions from the water. You will sail close to the urban shores of Rio on a sailing experience of approximately 2 hours to see such iconic landmarks as:
- Christ the Redeemer statue
- Copacabana Beach
- Sugarloaf Mountain
Near Flagstone Island, you will have the opportunity to see the historic neighbourhoods of Botafogo, Urca and Flamengo. In addition, you will sail under the famous Rio-Niterói Bridge, from where you can see the beaches of Niteroi, as well as the Fortaleza de São João and the Fortaleza de Santa Cruz.
An expert local guide on board will be on hand to provide you with all the relevant information at each point of the itinerary to help you learn more about the city. In addition, for your convenience, the activity includes the pick-up and drop-off service to and from your hotel.
You can select the private option so that the hotel pick-up service and the expert local guide are part of a private service that only your group can benefit from.
If you have selected the option, after the cruise you will enjoy an authentic Brazilian barbecue at one of the city's most famous churrasquerias. This is a buffet lunch, where you can also choose from a variety of vegetarian options.
