Adventure through Rio - I booked a surf lesson, but on the scheduled day the instructor informed me that the sea conditions were not favorable and canceled the lesson. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the next day, but the instructor kindly saved my class for me to use when I was available. My experience with Surf Matrix was incredible! I would definitely recommend him to anyone interested in learning to surf. Communication was excellent from start to finish. The instructor was amazing, very helpful and did a great job explaining the basic techniques and helping me catch waves!

Best Surf lesson - It was a very nice surf lesson with a very good instructor. He teached me very well and sang a lot of Songs while waiting for the waves 😂 it was like a concert in the water. I really enjoyed it and had a nice time

My little ones had the opportunity to learn to surf with a lot of commitment, care and enthusiasm. - The water was beautiful, so crystal clear that we could see the bottom of the sea even though it was shallow. It was a breathtaking scene.....

Booked an English tour and got no English - We booked an english guide because thats the only language we speak and the man who came with us did not speak any english. I was not able to successfully surf because he could not give me any tips. You can get this for way cheaper somewhere else and just confirm in person that you have someone who speaks your language.
