Full Day City Tour - We attended this tour because of the many things that were offered! Our tour guide was mini Gia and we loved him! He made sure we were comfortable and well prepared on what we should see and what we should do on each site visit. I would definitely recommend doing this excursion if you're trying to do a full city tour in a day! You will not be disappointed.

Exceptional tour in Rio - Highest commendations for a great itinerary and staff. The tour guide was exceptional and the organization and communication before and during the tour was excellent. The sites visited were great and the handling of tickets and lines made entry ready and much faster than without three guides help. Strongest recommendation for a great day tour!

High season - Our experience was great, the guide was very kind to us and even though it was high season we were able to enjoy the tour a lot, the restaurant had great food despite being very busy and we had to wait, two things we didn't like was that they set a time and in At the last minute they told us that they would leave early by phone and we had to run, another point was for the group, some people in our van took too long to get back from their points, other than that it was wonderful, we always want to go with you 😉
