Begin our tour at Marina da Gloria, boarding our exclusive catamaran. We depart toward the Museum of Tomorrow, one of the architectural icons of Porto Maravilha, Rio's port region. On the way we will see Villegagnon Island, Santos Dumont Airport, Fiscal Island, and the Navy's Arsenal.

After the Museum of Tomorrow we continue towards Niterói, passing by the beautiful Rio-Niterói Bridge and the famous Concha Acústica (Acoustic Shell) before heading to the MAC, the Museum of Contemporary Art, designed by Oscar Niemeyer, which enchants everyone with its disc shape.

Before returning to Rio de Janeiro, get to know other remarkable sights that surround the Guanabara Bay, such as: Adão and Eva Beaches, Santa Cruz Fortress, Lage Fortress, São José Fortress, and São João Fortress.

Our next stop is the famous Sugarloaf where we have a few minutes to take a picture at the foot of the mountain. Before returning to Marina da Gloria we pass the old Urca Casino and Flamengo Beach.

The trip never happened. The boat was no where to be found. We were there 45 min early and they were a no show. Consider taking the sail boat tour instead.

I am glad I did this cruise. The other options I found on Viator was 3 hours, and I felt it would be too long for me- and this 2 hours cruise was just right for me. ( technically it was more like 1.5 hours on water. )
I saw other reviewer saying the meeting point being hard to find. As soon as Uber dropped me off, I knew where it was, but it is not marked. I only knew because there were other people gathering there. As I was waiting, I did not know if someone was going to call our names, or the boat just comes there when the time comes. I wish we were given more information. Eventually one staff started leading people to the dock.
The cruise was great. It is a doubledecker and I sat on top level outside.
The pre-recorded guide was in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Sunset in Rio was very beautiful, and I recommend this to everyone.

We arrived at 1 for the 2 pm cruise. No one knew where cafe marina was. When we found it, no one was there. I emailed them and finally found them at a small stand not marked for the boat trip. We left at 2:20, returned at 3:40. The sun sets at 5:30. It was ok because Rio is so beautiful. They need to mark their meeting point and should not call it a 2 hour sunset cruise. It’s neither.

A sufficiently modern boat that can traverse the bay quite rapidly. Great views and a few stops for photo opportunities. We felt safe and secure all of the trip. It was also nice to get under the long bridge. Running tourist commentary was sufficient without being too much. Just don’t order any Doritos/ crisps from the onboard snack bar—- they’re stale as £&€$!

Incredible tour to discover Rio de Janeiro from the sea, departures from Marina da Glória in the late afternoon, 90 min tour with beautiful views of Sugarloaf Mountain and Corcovado, Museum of Tomorrow, Rio Niterói Bridge!
Tour with bilingual information.
One of the best tours in Rio de Janeiro.
I highly recommend it!

The tour company was nice enough. Tour started one hour before schedule. Make sure you have What’s App downloaded. Once on board, the tour went about 1/2 hour. Then the catamaran broke. We waited almost 2 hours then got towed to shore by another boat using a rope.

Terrible service!! I bought a tour through Despegar. I contacted them before to credit the tickets, with date and time. They sent me the boucher. 2 days before I wrote again to consult a possible modification and they responded that it was immovable. So I go to the Marina Da Glória, where the boat would leave and when I arrive, they tell me that the boat was under repair and that it would not leave until the next week. So I lost the possibility of another ride and spent a lot of money on transportation since my hotel was 30 minutes away by car. Without giving any type of explanation and ignoring the problem.
They gave me an email box to complain where I send screenshots and chat and they blocked me. Taking off will only refund the ride, but not the transfers because at that time they did not give me tickets, the photos and chats were not enough. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT, SUPER IRRESPONSIBLE!!!!
