“Booked day before. Clear messaging via WhatsApp to clarify the pickup address and time. Guide has perfect English/Spanish/Portuguese. Snorkels/mask/floatation vest/drinks cost. Otherwise, this is good if you want to ride a boat (45-1 hr each way) and stop at beaches in the islands. There is no history or explanation from the guide they are simply coordinators. Simply see this as a very cheap transportation and coordination + free lunch on the island. Left at 7AM and home at 9PM. Can be rainy so bring poncho and warm clothes as the boat is open air and got cold for us.”

“It is a beautiful place, 2.5 hrs from the city but it is worthy. We have a great time and everything was good.”

“This budget-friendly tour is a solid deal if you’re looking for a cheap escape, with lunch included and the opportunity to experience both a bus ride and a boat trip. However, most of the day was spent traveling—first on the bus picking up passengers of 45 and then getting on and off the boat with about 150 other people. The boat ride itself was pleasant, but a bit cramped and chaotic due to the large group. The beach time and swimming were nice, but limited to only about 30-45 minutes, leaving you with little time to fully enjoy the water or relax. If you don’t mind spending a lot of…”

“We had a wonderful day, guide and crew were super friendly and helpful. A truly great time in beutiful waters.”

“Passeio básico para quem vai a Angra, pelo preço vale a pena e você consegue mergulha e curtir um pouco a praia. Porém, levem lanches. No barco a única opção de compra era fandangos e o preço do almoço (se não estiver incluso) é absurdo. Um prato simples de filé de frango com batatas fritas é 170 reais, e não há outra opção para se alimentar. De resto, o passeio vale a pena.”

“The whole trip was amazing, specially the snorkeling! And every stops we had some activities! And big thank you for the guides! I could see that they working with love and passion, they like what they are doing! This was gave more to the trip!”

“This is a long day. I got picked up at 7:30am and didn’t arrive back to my hotel until 10pm. You spend about 5 hours round trip driving to the location. Then when you get on the boat you are on it for about 5 hours. While on the boat you are with 200 other people. They let you off the boat at 4 locations, but by the time you get off you might have 20 minutes in the water because you have to wait for everyone to get off and back on the boat (you have about 30 minutes-45 minutes at each location). Lunch isn’t until 5 and it’s…”

“They did not contact me the day before or day of the tour. I went to the pick up location at the specified time, waited 25 minutes, they never showed. Really disappointed since I was looking forward to this tour.”

“All the different beaches were beautiful. Snorkeling was fun. Guides were great.”

“Infame. 4 h de bus : 1h30 pour récupérer tout le monde à son hôtel et 2h30 de route, qui n’était pas prévues au programme. Ensuite, un bateau inconfortable, bondé, avec musique,m à tus tête comme en boîte de nuits , impossible de se détendre, des plages sales, des bateaux qui se klaxonnent entre eux, un restaurant ignoble, des arrêts à certaines plages injustifiés, pour sauter dans une eaux huileuse des déjections de moteurs, . Bref, une catastrophe.”

“We stayed at a hotel in Barra and during the booking on Viator we picked the hotel name in the form. The order went through and our voucher said pick up at our hotel. However, less than 24hrs before the trip we were told there was only pickup 45 minutes away, and given that the trip is already many hours in a van to get to Angra, we decided not to go and couldn’t get our money back. They pointed to fine print in the booking about no pickup in Barra.”

“The tour is not designed for foreigners. It is not a touristic tour, it’s more like a party boat. We had huge traffic problems (of course not the tour operator’s fault) and the guide didn’t explain what was happening to anyone. When he described the tour, he never translated anything even though we booked a tour with an English speaker guide. It seems he did very little to make the passengers feel secure and comfortable. The four hours boat ride had very loud music. It looked like you were in a club more than a tour. The boat operator seem more worried about the amount of drinks to sell than…”

“Tatiana was amazing! She was involved with every part of our tour and was so knowledgeable and friendly. We loved spending the day with her. The boat driver and driver from the hotel were also wonderful and kind. Went to several quiet beaches, cave, and more lively beach. Saw fish and clear waters. Great trip!”

“Muy buena actividad. Tuvimos un muy buen guia. Estaba preocupado por nosotros todo el tiempo. En el bus que ibamos tuvo un problema pero rapidamente nuestro guia solucionó el problema y la actividad se hizo a tiempo.”

“Não tinha nada de paradisíaco. Passeio simples, pouco atrativo. Não faria novamente”
