We really appreciated the precise organization of the tour. Everything was planned in advance, with all tickets purchased ahead of time, so there were no lines. We didn’t have to wait anywhere or waste any time. Our guide, Gustavo, was friendly, informative, and professional. We also want to highlight the driver's work; he navigated our minibus through Rio's traffic very smoothly. The tour also included a nice buffet lunch with meat, various side dishes, and vegetables. We definitely recommend this tour to others, we like it💛

The weather didn't co-operate, so booked a tour for Saturday, doing the same thing that was $55 U.S. Dollars cheaper. Hopefully the weather will be good, so I can get my pictures. Our tour guide Camilla (the blonde lady) was very well versed and helped make the tour enjoyable, with her knowledge and wit. Looking forward to a clear dry experience.

Very good Tour of the Rio must see spots. Our guide Paz was very good at answering questions and her English was easy to understand. We loved that we didn’t have to stand in line for attractions. We were able to skip the lines and get in faster. Well worth the price

This was a good tour. I am a history major so love to learn more about the area we are in when we book tours and this tour was very light on information. This made my other family members happy as they prefer to just relax. The stops were great and we really enjoyed Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf. The crowds were less on the day we were there, which was a bonus. Lunch was buffet style with lots of options.
