Amazing bike tour of beaches
The bike tour of Rio was an exhilarating way to see Rio. Our guide, Heloisa, was energetic and informative. You'll be able to see the various beaches and decide which ones you want to go back to in order to go swimming or take in the view. We highly recommend this tour!
Excellent
Excellent, I went with some insecurity because of the topic that everyone talks about robberies and so on, and the truth that nothing happened, I was 9 days, I went everywhere, by bike, by uber, walking and very nice everything.
Have a nice walk to discover Rio! But a little long finally!
I think 7 hours was a little long, and I think it could have been done in 5 hours. Happy with the guide and visit!
Beautiful Day with Loise
We enjoyed our bike tour of the Rio Beaches and Lagoon. Louise was pleasant and informative. It was a good experience, would recommend.
Great coverage of Rio
Marco took us on a great ride through the various areas as specified. We followed bike paths most of the time, it was mainly flat riding and he kept us safe. He explained the sites, answered our questions and stopped for photos. Very helpful and good fun despite being a very hot day.
