Rio de Janeiro: Sunset Boat Tour with Swimming, Drinks & Snacks

About this activity

Board at Marina da Glória and cruise Guanabara Bay on a 3-hour boat tour timed to put you on the water at exactly the right moment for sunset. The group is capped at 11 passengers — no crowds, plenty of space on board, and full attention from the crew for everyone. Along the way, you'll pass the Museum of Tomorrow, stop for photos in front of Oscar Niemeyer's MAC in Niterói, and have 1 hour for swimming at Praia de Adão e Eva or Enseada da Urca. On the crossing back, with the sun going down over the bay, you'll see Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain lit up by the last light of the day — straight from the water. Beer, water, soft drinks and snacks are all included

    Cruise past the Museum of Tomorrow — one of the world's most striking contemporary buildings, right on the waterfront of Porto Maravilha.

  3. Museu de Arte Contemporanea de Niteroi
