Fun Day Diving - I booked a dive trip to Arraial do Cabo with Rio Adventures. I was picked up early by Samual, who was friendly and spoke great English. We drove 2 hours to Arraial do Cabo and met up with the dive boat operated by a company called Mr Diver. I was the only certified diver on the boat this day so I had my own dive master, who spoke good English, with me for both of the dives. The diving wasn't the best I have ever done, but I was fun getting into the water. The visibility was good though. After the dive, we drove 2 hours back to Rio. Overall it was a fun day!

Good experience, competitive prices, small groups. - Very good experience with this tour operator. There was good communication and they even improved the price of the diving excursion.
I highlight the excellent predisposition and attention of the guide that appointed us, the name is Bruno R., my regards to him!.
I would choose them again.

Brazilian water diving - Great experience! Had a wonderful road trip to a fisherman’s town outside rio. The diving was interesting and different from most reef dives with the typography. Highlight was swimming with a big turtle in the open blue. I also had never seen a flying fish up close before which was cool to see underwater

Awesome trip - We started with the Scuba trip and then the following day we did the Canopy Tour and hiked the Two Brothers Mountain. Amazing experiences all the way. Rafael spoke very good English and was an awesome and amazing tour guide. Really a great guy and very knowledgeable about the area and the history. We enjoyed every minute of these trips and would recommend it to everyone.

Amazing experience - Very good experience. The company who does the dives is very professional, explanations were very clear and the area of Cabo Frio is beautiful... Our guide, Bernardo, also took us to an amazing seafood restaurant which really surpassed our expectations. I strongly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to explore further than Rio!

Scuba greatness - We were unsure about a 2 hours trip outside of Rio but WOW, were we impressed. The whole experience was amazing. Being from the USA we did not know what to expect but everything was 5 star. The tour guide, driver. spoke great English and gave us lots of information on our drive. The scuba diving was only around 35 feet but we saw sea turtles ( one touched me) , a sea horse, eels, beautiful fish and many more. We got 2 dives with wonderful dive guides.
