Recent Traveler Reviews
Here is a selection of the most recent reviews of the Buzios Day Trip from Rio de Janeiro submitted by actual travelers. Read what travelers liked, what they loved, and what they thought could be improved.
Read the other reviews before booking, booked anyway, and I don't really see what they were complaining about. This was a great day out, definitely one of the best in Rio. The boat ride is a blast, the scenery is spectacular, the swimming is perfect. This isn't a guided-by-the-hand experience and that's what I really liked about it. Do it!

There was a delay to pick us up in the morning, so we arrived to Buzios one hour later. The guide was ok. It is more a transfer service than a tour per se. The trip by boat is not included.

We didn't get to go to Buzios and were disappointed by that. But the trip to Sepetiba Bay did turn out nice.

It actually took three hours each way to Buzios. There was not much in the way of commentary from the guide. If you don't take the 2-hour boat ride you are stuck in the town for about 4-hours. You could go to the beach or walk in the town with a bunch of touristy shops. The boat ride was nice. They made 4 stops where you could dive off the boat and swim in the clear water. That was worth it, but should have been included in the tour price.

Buzios was amazing definitely go see it. But it was suppose to take about 2hours to get there and instead it took 4 hours. Wish we could've spent more time there. Also tour guide asks if you want to stop at a t-shirt shop on your way say "NO" trust me not worth the waste of time.
