Guanabara Bay Cruise Half-Day Tour from Rio de Janeiro

After the hotel pickup, you can step onto the deck of a schooner and cross the great waters of Guanabara Bay. Look back at the verdant mountains framing the colorful beachfront downtown of Rio de Janeiro as you cruise over the waves.

Spend half a day sailing on Guanabara Bay, for the most beautiful views of Rio de Janeiro with Sugar Loaf Mountain towering in the distance. Pass the bay’s islands and forts as you cruise the idyllic waters. The Guanabara Bay Cruise includes round-trip transportation from your Rio de Janeiro hotel. 

See the beaches of Niteroi, and sail past the vibrant neighborhoods of Botafogo, Flamengo and Urca. Gaze up at towering Sugarloaf Mountain, the monolithic peak that rises 1,299 feet (396 m) above the harbor, and watch the cable cars crossing this stunning panorama.

The boat tour is 2 hours.
