Christ the Redeemer - I really liked the experience with the Brazil Expedition. The tour was very well organized, without rushing and with a super good crowd accompanying everything. You can see that they really know Rio and do the question of showing the best places. It was a very maneuvering day and I would definitely do it again. If you are looking for a full tour of Rio, I highly recommend Brazil Expedition. Excellent service, attentive guides and a very well thought out script. Light, fun and truly worthwhile experience.

A walk to take the breath - What a sensational team! Comfortable and air-conditioned transport, routes that make us understand more about the history of the city (the guides always tell, at each stop), give too necessary support if you wanted to take photos, explanations in different languages to facilitate the understanding of the collective. Simply, amazing! I will recommend to everyone, I will definitely go back to do more trips with this company

Perfect Intro to Rio with an Outstanding Guide - This tour was a great way to see the main highlights in a short amount of time. Everything was well-organized, and the itinerary covered all the must-visit spots, making it very convenient especially for first-time visitors.

Best river city tour - We love the city tour experience in Rio! The route goes through the main sights and was all very well organized. We were able to see the places calmly, take pictures and enjoy each stop without rush. The guide was extremely attentive, punctual and explained everything with a lot of knowledge and sympathy. You can see that he really likes what he does and knows a lot about the history and curiosities of the city, which made the tour even more interesting. The place chosen for lunch was also excellent, with very good food and a pleasant atmosphere — a great time to rest and recharge before continuing the tour. It was a full day, well spent and that exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend for those who want to know Rio in a practical, comfortable way and with great explanations!
