Cabo Frío Day Trip

9.30 / 10

3 reviews | 34 travellers

Very complete with beautiful and interesting places and several alternatives. The guide gave clear information about each site and the bus was very comfortable. The lunch was delicious and varied. Patricia, the guide, was a bit rigid and lacking empathy. For example, there were two accidents and she was more concerned about the delay caused by their falls and limping than about the people affected, since they were not sensitive and were very negative: they did not even have ice or a first aid kit.

Description

A paradisical island, dreamy beaches and an old town await you on this day trip to Cabo Frio, one of the most beautiful destinations in Rio de Janeiro.

Cabo Frio

We'll pick you up at the time indicated from your hotel in Búzios and from here we'll head south to one of the most popular coastal destinations in Rio de Janeiro.

After an hour's journey, we'll arrive in Cabo Frio. We'll start our tour of this delightful town by visiting the beaches of Praia Pero and Praia das Conchas. These stunning beaches have incredible crystal-clear water. You'll love them!

Then, we'll continue our tour along the shore to Laguna de Araruama. Here, you'll take a boat to Ilha do Japonês, a virgin island where you'll have 1.5 hours to go snorkelling, sunbathing or hiking.

Afterwards, we'll return to the mainland and move on to Praia do Forte. On this beach, one of the most popular in Cabo Frio, we'll visit São Mateus Fort. We'll learn all about this historical bastion from the 17th century before heading to a restaurant in the Shopping Park Lagos shopping centre, where we'll enjoy a buffet-style lunch.

Next, it's time to walk around the neighbourhood of Passagem, the oldest in the town. From here, we'll go down the iconic Rua dos Biquínis, a famous street with more than 100 shops specialising in beach clothes, fitness and other accessories. You'll spend 30 minutes shopping here.

Finally, we'll take you back to your hotel in Búzios, where we'll arrive around 9 hours after initial pickup.

Muy completa con bellos e interesantes lugares y varias alternativas. La guía daba clara información sobre cada sitio y el micro muy cómodo. El almuerzo rico y variado. Patricia la guía, .un tanto rígida y poco empática. Ejemplo, hubo dos accidentadas y se mostró más preocupada por el rrtraso que ocasionaron sus caídas y rengueras, que por las personas afectadas, ya que no mostraron sensibilidad y muy negativo: no tenían ni siquiera hielo y un botiquín de prineros auxilios.
