Family day in Rio

The truth is it was an incredible day, we had a very good time; we were a group of friends/family that, added to the group we were with, we truly had a very good time. Also, the guide Pryscilla was excellent, very willing to help, and very fun.... When I return I am going to ask to go with her.

The best experience in Rio

The best tour we have taken on this trip, the whole tour from Christ the Redeemer to Sugarloaf Mountain was magical, we had a super lively group, but we must give clear recognition to Pricila our tour guide, she was incredible and gave us the carioca touch we needed to get to know the city and brightened our whole day with her joy and contagious happiness, and many thanks to Rodrigo who was our driver and had to endure all the traffic for us.
