Rio de Janeiro · CANOES & KAYAKS
4 tours
The good canoes & kayaks tours in Rio fill up first, especially between December and Carnival. Below are the 4 best, each with a current price and what makes it different, so you can book before the calendar closes.
Kayak Paraty mangroves near Paraty, Brazil, with a guide, wildlife spotting, and sunset views. Gear and instruction included.
“It was a very nice two and half hour tour with Brenda who explained a lot about the local flora and fauna. We even manages to see capibara. The kayaking was very pleasant and easy for everyone.”
Sunrise stand-up paddle on Copacabana Beach. Learn SUP basics, paddle to the horizon, and get a photo and video package.
“Pior experiência da minha vida! Conselho que dou é NÃO FAÇAM. Primeiro que fui no ponto de encontro e não tinha ninguém lá, cheguei 4h15 e o horário marcado era às 4h30. Daí fiquei em plena madrugada do Rio esperando responderem as minhas mensagem ou atenderem as minhas ligações e nada. Daí tive que ir na orla da praia saindo de quiosque em quiosque procurando o responsável pela atividade. Só conseguir fazer pois tinha um lá que tinha parceria com a “ empresa” ao qual contratei, caso contrário não iria conseguir fazer a atividade. O rapaz que me atendeu me passou a informação que eles não tinham mais o ponto…”
Sunset kayak in Paraty’s mangroves with easy paddling, small groups, capybaras and birds, plus equipment included for a 2-hour outing.
“This was such a great tour! Brenda was a wonderful guide and showed us so many cool things. Highly recommend.”
Kayak through Paraty’s mangroves from Pontal Beach, with calm-water paddling, small groups, local guides, and possible capybara sightings.
“What a cool experience! Brenda was an amazing guide, who has a great sense of humour and clearly has a passion for doing this tour! I may not have been the best kayaker, but she was patient and made sure it was an unforgettable experience! We kayaked around a beautiful island inhabited by all sorts of exotic birds and then kayaked through a mangrove seeing capybaras. I highly recommend this tour! Thanks Brenda and Paulo!”
