Marco and Isabella are expert sailors with a beautiful yacht. They are warm and welcoming, and both are clearly passionate about sailing and life on the water.
While we were in Rio, the seas were unusually rough, so while we were unable to complete the original agenda, we were still able to make a nice tour of the calmer waters in the bay. We spent a nice day with friends and family, talking, sharing stories.

Marco and Isabel are first class. Communication is amazing and Marco worked with me to get on the water when convenience and weather would best fit. I did this experience solo and hope to return with my sisters/girlfriends/partner. And had amazing recommendations for restaurants. One I’m sitting at right now. Very much appreciate the friendliness and flexibility of the host. x
