Traveler reviews
River!!
The guide was excellent (Henrique) although the weather did not help to see the sunset!!
Awesome Views but Long lines and wait
Awesome views and activities but waiting in the lines for Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf was like being in Disney Land. Very long. Our guide and Driver were great. Just wish the tour company had a way to get us through the line faster instead of waiting with everyone else. That’s why you pay to have a guided tour in my opinion
Great Job!
Great experience with Luciana! Kept us informed and kept us together when other people were touring so we didn’t get lost. Also she very friendly and good at her job. I would recommend her as your guide. I will say to eat before going or bring a snack, you can’t eat until closer to the end due to you going to multiple locations to take photos and time is limited. I still recommend going during the day.
Best way to see the renowned sites!
This tour delivers on seeing 3 main historical Rio treasures in just the right amount of time. Sunset view was stunning!
Alexia was an amazing guide
Had a great time during the tour! Our guide Alexia was extremely helpful and resourceful giving us the best time we could have. Would recommend this tour for anyone looking to visit Rio.
