We travel to many parts of the world and we love going out on boat tours. This was by far the absolute BEST boat tour ever! The crew was awesome! Super friendly, and professional and best Brazilian BBQ ever on the boat with high quality seafood and meat and more. Best Caipirinhas in the country with fresh fruits. Lots of other drinks too. The “traineira” was super cute and spacious. We loved it so much that we did it again 2 days later! And I will do it again. Thank you Patrick and Rafael for the amazing time!
Very professional. On time. Had extra items I asked for to surprise my wife. Definitely recommend their service.
A fabulous day on the water with Rafael—wonderful guide who made the day absolutely PERFECT!!! Highly recommend!!!
We spent a perfect day on the Drummond visiting different beaches and while sipping caipirinhas and mojitos. Had the best lunch of fresh grilled fish and shrimp with the yummiest grilled potatoes and garlic bread. Truly a luxurious experience and so wonderful to have a boat all to ourselves. Rafael was the perfect captain who is also a fabulous cook and bartender.
What a wonderful experience to have the luxury of a private boat! We had the flexibility to relax and enjoy some time and have a swim at different beaches on this amazing destination - Buzios! What a paradise. The ship captain and the tour guide were so pleasant. They had enquired the day before what our favorite drinks were and had some available for us once on board. They even made their local drink from scratch! Delicious!!! Keep in mind that you may have to take a water taxi to get from the pier where you disembark from your cruise ship to their pier… only 5$ cdn per person. It was worth the extra step. Bravo to patrick the captain and our tour guide (forgot his mame) from the Drummond 1.
Such a fun afternoon on a large, beautiful boat. We went to half a dozen different beaches, the captain and his team made sure we had time to swim (and snorkel) at each spot. The team served us drinks, played fun music, took great photos, and were super safe and kind. Highly recommend, really excellent all around!
Drumond was the best private boat ride ! The crew was attentive and made us feel at home! We stopped at beautiful beaches and were able to swim in no rush.
We had an outstanding experience today with Patrick today. They went all out on making us feel special. Everything from the custom drinks to the grilled fresh fish on the boat could not have been any better!
We had an amazing time! Patrick snd Rafeal were friendly, prompt and helpful. The food was so good and the drinks kept flowing! What a wonderful way to spend a relaxing day together in buzios!
Patrick and Rafeal were friendly fun and helpful! Food was great, drinks were better and we just loved our day at sea! Would do it again in a heartbeat!
Patrick was a perfect host and captain. He picked us up right where the tender had let us off, and we traveled from beach to beach. The scenery was beautiful, we enjoyed the music, and the handmade kiwi and passion fruit drinks he provided were delicious. He had water noodles and mats for our use. we particularly enjoyed lava beach, and the turtles that swam next to our boat. It would’ve even been more perfect if we spoke Portuguese but he did have his Google translator with him. After our ship revised its itinerary, Patrick rearranged his schedule so that he could accommodate us. I highly recommend this tour.
There were only four of us on our excursion, since two people became ill. Honestly, we felt like royalty as our Captain pulled up to the tender spot and we traveled from beach to beach. He had water noodles and mats aboard for our use, and his music choice was great. In addition, he made us delicious fresh kiwi and passionfruit drinks. Our trip was made even more memorable by the accompaniment of sea turtles. (We were so lucky that he was able to change our original excursion time after our ship changed its docking times.) Highly recommended. It would have even been more fabulous had we been able to speak Portuguese. He was able to use his google translator when necessary.
It was an amazing experience! We lounged on the front of the boat, on top of comfy cushions, as we wandered past the various beaches on the peninsula. We stopped at three different snorkel spots - at one point, we swam with these little yellow and black striped fishes (called “sergeant major”). Literally, it was as if we were part of their school, and we just calmly floated as they surrounded us (front, back, sides) from a place of curiosity. This is kinda hard to describe, but I felt a kinship with these fish. Like, they became our buddies. We also saw an eel, starfish, black urchins, other types of salt water fish, and coral of course. We watched a turtle 🐢 swim around in the surface but were unable to see him below, due to murky waters. At one point, we anchored the boat near a calmer cove and the guys on board grilled for us - huge shrimp, vegetable skewers, potatoes and a beautiful pink fish called a “short bigeye”. The seasoning was very basic, just oil and salt - and the result was amazing, served with fresh lime. I mean, here we were, listening to our music over Bluetooth, eating fresh seafood, while gently bobbing in the water. The vibe was so chill, so comfortable and easy… And surrounding us were several party boats, with 50 or so people on them, no room to move, all trying to snorkel in the same area at the same time. We definitely felt like we were having a much better time.
I reserved the boat for me and my girlfriend because I didnt want to be on a "booze cruise" with 50 other people. It was just the two of us along with captain Patrick and one crew member. It was absolutely perfect. They served Caipirinhas and water as much as we wanted. They took us to beautiful coves and beaches as well as a secluded island. They offered to play our music via bluetooth but the music they had already was perfect. The captain had lots of knowledge of all the areas. I highly recommend this boat tour if you are looking for something more romantic or you want to take your family and friends without being among strangers. I would do it again for sure when I return. 10 stars!!!
Excellent tour. Captain was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Crew was very interested in making sure we had the best time. Area around Buzios is gorgeous. Cute and comfortable boat, we would absolutely book this tour again if ever back in the area.
Patrick and his crew are chill, friendly, and go above and beyond to make the day fun. We went for 6 hours in a group of 15 and loved every beach and cove they took us to. The boat is well-equipped with sun shade, a few snorkel masks, a paddle board, and pool noodles. We brought food and they cooked it all in addition to mixing some top notch drinks. Can’t recommend more highly!
We hired the boat for a four hour cruise, just enough for us to see the bay and swim in the surrounding waters. We didn’t need much to eat, but the boat has a bbq if you wanted, our captain prepared the food we had taken. Great way to see the coastline and really fun half day trip. Very flexible in how long we spent in each bay.
Key words: fabulous, perfect, amazing. We had an unforgettable day with Patrick and his first mate motoring in the waters surrounding Buzios. Stunning scenery, crystal-clear waters, delicious lunch, great boat. Patrick is a perfect captain and accommodating host. We loved/enjoyed every minute and created memories that will last forever.
It was a fabulous private trip, a simple authentic alternative to crowded touristy options. We were cooked delicious food and Patrick made the trip a day to remember. Patrick and Luan were friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. We highly recommend this tour!
Fantastic trip! Patrick was very attentive and super friendly. The barbecue was awesome. We did enjoyed it so much that we went back a few days latter for another trip. It was very easy to schedule and Patrick was always in contact to make sure on our arrival and needs. Super recommend for a private group trip!
My wife and I and 2 children hired the boat for a day and it was fantastic. Patrick and his colleague are great guys and took us to beautiful islands with clear water and fish everywhere. Patrick moored the boat and grilled us fish on the BBQ. The boat is clean and comfortable and the crew are very kind and attentive. Perfect for families and perfect for everyone. A fabulous day. We will do this again!

Absolutely stunning views, got to swim in some of the most beautiful secluded beaches in Buzios that can only be accessed by boat. The service was excellent. A three person crew prepared a wonderful churrasco/bbq. Would definitely recommend without hesitation.
Búzios is beautiful and exploring it aboard Patrick’s boat was the best day of our trip. The crew is very attentive and courteous. They grilled a delicious churrasco while we enjoyed ourselves swimming, sun bathing and taking in the gorgeous views. All 12 members of our family ages 7 thru 70 had a fantastic time.
We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon out on the boat with Patrick and Rafael! We look forward to doing it again the next time we are in Buzios!
This was a great tour. We booked the private tour last minute the night before and the captain was very accommodating and was able to fulfill our requests for drinks. Option to BBQ and a great 4 hour tour around to the beaches. Bluetooth connectivity was great and speaker on the boat works great. The captain was very informative and made sure we were always having a great time. I would recommend this for anyone to do while in Buzios, much better than the crowded big boats that tour around and not that much more money!
Good boat, great trip, excellent pilot! Patrick did a great job! Búzios is a must visit place! Nevertheless, take a good look at the weather forecast, because it could get very windy and it could cancel your boat trip.
perfect the nightmare. without any problem a. fulfilled what he said
It was top. Our skipper, Rafael, even made barbecue for us and treated us super well! I loved it!
Whenever I go out with my family and friends I seek the services of Patrick and his son. The boat is capricious and safe, comfortable living area and impeccable bathroom. The walk is always a success.
Simply the best boat with the best buzz team. The only one I trust my family. We make unforgettable moments, emotional memories with children and friends. Always out with Patrick and his son and it's always fantastic. The best of buzios
We did the tour with Patrick's Drumond, Rafael led our tour, talking about the beaches. The tour was amazing and the boat only for our group. It was excellent, punctual and professional.
Excellent 4h experience around the different beaches of Buzios with the family this 24 December Rafaelo was a real professional, That was really great.
Amazing! You will see turtles, swim in beautiful beaches with clean, hot water, with a beautiful barbecue made by Patrick and Rafa. In addition, Rafa makes some delicious maracujas! You will feel very comfortable and the fun will be guaranteed
Unique experience, impossible to find better. Rafael was an exceptional "captain", attentive and helpful to all our needs. The boat is beautiful, clean, safe. We also requested barbecue, fish, shrimp meat service, first choice; Rafael performed exactly as requested, about the cutting point, also preparing fantastic caipirinhas. It has a unique service, tailored and personalized, to repeat
Very good worth trying magical place, literally recommended a place Delicia paradise in the very friendly guide
Excellent quality care from beginning to end. I highly recommend! Patrick and his team are extremely qualified and attentive.
Our tour was great, with 9 adults and 2 children. Very well cared boat, led by Patrick, very friendly. We stopped at several beaches of Búzios, all beautiful
Es ging von Buzios zu 3 Stränden. Raffael war ein toller Capitan, hatten eine tolle Zeit und viel Spaß mit 10 Leuten. Der Caipi floss in Strömen
What a nice walk!!! We were super well received and the stops were amazing! It's worth it... the kids took great advantage. The floor below has a bed for children to rest. Super indico.
Wonderful trip, super attentive managers, polite ...was very well worth it... Worried all the time about our well-being, we will come back more often... DrumondI, note 1000!
Excellent service, very good ship, excellent captain and his crew! Always watch for us to have a good time and with a smile!
Excellent walk, Patrick was very attentive and polite. Excellent commuter, piloted the boat very carefully. We took great advantage of family.
This was the third time we closed the tour with Patrick. Clean boat, well-maintained, asking crew, polite and always willing to do the best for the passengers. The captain besides good at the leme, is good at the barbecue!! The whole group took advantage of the walk. Mega recommended!!
I celebrated my birthday with the company Drumond and they have been professional and attentive since my first contact with the company. The walk was impeccable. Spacious boat, clean, everything well organized was unforgettable!! We will definitely return!!
Patrick waits for you at the dock and already starts a plank, takes you to different beaches and brakes on some and with snorkel masks that he gives you you can swim. The boat has a bathroom and grill that if you want it makes you the roast or you can do it. You can also bring your food and drink and give you ice to cool it. Patrick's got all the cool and he's telling you things of interest on the beaches and taking pictures of you. And always with a smile. Fully recommended, and being a boat and not a boat, you can enjoy the trip going a little slower but you can move and walk while sailing, and you see turtles, fish and crabs.
I went with my wife and we loved everything! Patrick was TOP, showing us the best beaches in Búzios! We already want to go again, huh! It's so worth it!
If you still have any doubts, go without fear! Patrick and his team were amazing. Boat super organized, clean and well maintained. Wonderful barbecue. I celebrated my birthday with friends and I have NOTHING to complain about, once again I praise Patrick and his team who were completely attentive and pleasant to us.
Amazing boat staff! Attentive, lively, clean, large boat and a very good barbecue. Super value for money!
