Angra dos Reis and Ilha Grande, Boat Ride from Rio Lunch and Transport

Posted By : macarenar645
Bad information and organization.
Travel with the Nattrip agency. An hour looking for people.
The excursion consists of going with the boat, making 4 stops in which you have to jump off the boat, swim for a little while and go up again.
In my case I didn't like the modality since you leave your belongings upstairs (there are no docks to get off, you get off by jumping into the water) and then everything is wet... at 5 p.m. it was lunch that was offered to us as a free fork and There was only lettuce, rice, fish full of bones and nothing else.
We left at 6:50 and returned at 10:30 p.m., the trip is tiring.

PLEASANT, SAFE, LIVELY TOUR, GOOD FOOD, THE STOPS TO SWIM AND ENJOY NATURE WERE SATISFACTORY. THE SERVICE IS GOOD, THE GUIDES ARE VERY DEDICATED AND EDUCATED.

This tour agency was awful but they have a monopoly on these schooner boats. Booked an English trip but was put on bus no English leading us to spend excess money for already purchased lunch additional $58 and UBER back to Rio FYI it’s $45. Super crowded and dirty boat touching one another. Next time private boat would have been equal with better quality.

Just had bad luck. The bus picks up passengers all over Rio, which means the 3 hrs turned into 4:30hrs sitting, not only that from 7 am, I was the 7:55 am pickup, but the bus came at 8:25. We got there at about 1 ish. The boat was waiting for another bus which had mechanic issues or something, which means we waited another hr on the boat. After that they decided to take us to a beach location near by which we were allowed to swim around. Not the clear water. They finally decided to take us out towards the island. We made another stop at a small cool island, I think it was about 3:30 by then. We then went to eat at the main island which is not a swimmable area, you just eat the buffet they provide. I won't rate the food as it is subjectable, it was local food like rice, beans, salad, fried chicken and fish. Finally we left by now the sun was basically setting, we got to another nice location, but it was already cold. Blue Lagoon which was the one place I was really hoping to see was next. By now the sun was so low, we didn't get the full sun glare hitting to water to see the "Blue Lagoon" effect. Still, we did go to another location. Basically, I only went in the water at the first stop (local beach). Another 3:30 hrs coming back, got at the hotel at 11:30 I was at a Hotel in Copacabana. I am sure if we had hot no traffic, if theother bus didn't break down and we got to the Blue Lagoon during peak sun, it would have been beautiful... next time

We were not happy with the buffet as it had really bad quality. The other thing was the toilet in the boat that was awful (very dirty, unhygienic, and the flush was not working which is definitely unacceptable). from other aspects, it was good in terms of choosing islands and beaches, the transport was good as well (the bus was really comfortable ).
