Beautiful views, excellent commentary - Fantastic experience. The captain and crew were amazing and gave us a water tour of the city we will never forget. The food and drinks were surprisingly great and everything was perfectly timed and so much fun. Love to Thais - the best deckhand ever! Highly recommend.

Just book it! - Such a fantastic afternoon on a beautiful sailing boat. We were well looked after for information about the views and drinks & snacks. We felt there was room for all of us to move around the boat and saw other smaller boats with far more people on them. Such good value for the trip. I looked at so many boat tours and so pleased we chose this one. It was everything we wanted and more.

Sailing in the company of my wife, celebrating our marriage anniversary, 48 years. - It was a very good experience, sailing along the coast of Rio de Janeiro at sunset, something beautiful.
The attention of the crew (I don't remember their names) was always ready to answer questions, good attention, well attended, everything was good, the best scores for them.

Sailing fun - We booked our sailboat trip for our last night in Rio so we could have a beautiful last memory of our holiday. Rio sun sail did not disappoint. The boat ride was done at a leisurely pace so we could take in all in sights of the coastline. The added bonus was to be able to dive off the boat and have a swim. The drinks and snacks provided we were perfect. Thank you to Thays and Rodolpho.

Great trip! - Did this boat ride with my sister at Christmastime. We had an overcast day and at one point the skies opened up and just DUMPED. There was no sunset to be had, but it was an awesome time anyway! The trip was super fun and the hosts were amazing! Everyone was so nice and helpful. The drinks and snacks were perfect, and the boat was great. A cool way to see Rio and some of the waters around it. The captain timed it out so we were right at the airport when a plane took off over us- what a cool experience!
