5.00We went on an amazing scuba diving tour of Arraia do Cabo with tour guide Rafael. 10/10 recommend booking this experience for an amazing time. We got professional photos swimming with the sea turtle, eels, and many beautiful fish. The scuba instructors were very experienced and professional, keeping us safe while ensuring an amazing experience! Make sure you ask for Rafael as your guide, we booked him for another tour of Tijuca Rainforest on a previous day and he made both experiences unforgettable and tons of fun!! Book this experience!

5.00Thoroughly enjoyed our kayak tour. With 3 teenage boys, we escaped the heat and crowds and enjoyed 2 hours of paddling seeing all the sites from the water. The kids bonded with left right left right banter on a three man kayak. We even had a swim at a deserted beach. It’s an easy on off on a sandy beach aswell. We all swam again at the end so bring a towel if you like to swim.
I recommend!

5.00Cajá and André were very kind and attentive, they told us various stories from Rio. It was a shame it rained but still the route was worth it! I recommend too much and would do it again on another occasion.

5.00Sure Rafael Caja will be your best Guide in Rio de Janeiro. A class of history, geography and local biodiversity. Besides being a very high astral and quiet Kara! After we started (me and my wife) doing the tours with him our passion for Rio de Janeiro increased immensely. For those who like sports, nature and good vibes this is Kara!!
