Additional Information

Can’t-miss coastlines and isles!

Indeed, Angra dos Reis boasts 365 islands, a fact that massively contributes to its charm. Located on Rio de Janeiro’s coast, this place is famed for its idyllic landscapes, clear waters, and unmatched beauty.

The largest island in Rio de Janeiro state and the sixth-largest sea island in Brazil is Ilha Grande. Its coastline is characterized by a host of peninsulas and inlets, resulting in multiple beach spots.

Among the multitude of choices, the most favored beaches/islands include Lagoa Azul, Lagoa Verde, Praia Cataguazes, Praia de Freguesia de Santana, and Praia de Japariz, where we’ll pause for lunch.

Wonderful City - It is a very beautiful city, we stopped in San Conrado but we walked all its beaches, the neighborhood where we were very quiet, we were also able to go to Christ, to the sugar loaf, which if you go on a clear day they have incredible views. If you go, don't miss the aquarium, its best attraction, a tunnel that passes through a giant fish tank where you can see the fish around you. Public transportation is very good, both buses and the subway.

Good - Good for the day trip from RIO. It requires preparing for swimming but I can't much. I want to visit again to enjoy swimming in Ilha Grande!

Boat trip with beautiful beaches - The tour is really good!!! It was me, my husband and our one and a half year old son, and he had a great time. The landscapes are really very beautiful! The tour starts early and goes until the end of the afternoon, making the most of the day.

Extraordinary experience - The experience is very nice, the transportation and service very comfortable. The guide Rafael very friendly. The extraordinary landscape. It is a two-hour trip but they explain everything clearly to you as to what the schedules will be like.

Beautiful Experience of the Sea away from the City - This was a highlight of our trip! Flavia our guide, brings joy with her smiles and speaking in 3 languages to ensure all are well aware of what’s coming up. It’s a long day, but well spaced out with safety in mind and multiple sites to see. I highly recommend if you haven’t done this already and cast away on the azul sea and beautiful beaches.

Island tour 8/10 - Very good tour. Pros: excellent organization and very good communication before and during the trip. Cons: some “expected” waits considering that you are traveling with many people. Lunch is ok but could be better. Everything was also very delicious. I recommend doing this tour!

Of the good stuff, a little - It is a walk through 3 islands where only on 1 of them you can sit on the beach and on the other two you jump from the boat. The stay in each of them is approximately 20 minutes so you are basically transported on the boat the entire time. As an experience it is entertaining but I would spend at least 1 hour on each beach so as not to have the feeling of running around. In the end, lunch was good, everything was delicious, but I would tell the bus driver to be more careful with the air conditioning since when several of the group came back wet, we caught a cold, or suggest bringing spare clothes.

Disappointing - Trip was a bit disappointing. Barely any guiding in English. Crowded boat. Mediocre food. 1 hour stop at a gas station to have “lunch” or a snack with only horrible food options
