Overview

Discover Ilha Grande on a fully private day trip designed around your group. Travel from Rio de Janeiro to Mangaratiba in a private vehicle with a professional driver and licensed tour guide, then continue aboard your own private speedboat for approximately five hours of beaches, lagoons and island scenery.

Choose between two distinct itineraries — the Classic Ilha Grande Route or the Lopes Mendes Route — and enjoy the freedom of a private experience without the pace or limitations of a shared group tour. With pickup and drop-off in Rio, dedicated transportation and a private boat, the entire journey is arranged for comfort, flexibility and a more personal way to experience Ilha Grande.

Whether you prefer swimming in clear waters, relaxing on the beach or simply enjoying the scenery from the boat, this is a full-day escape built around the experience of your group.
