Cristo Redentor - This tour is a must if you visit Rio. You start the day at Christ the Redeemer and end at Sugarloaf Mountain. There are several side ventures between the first and last stop. Our guide, Sandra, spoke 3 languages to accommodate everyone in the group. She also took pictures for us.

An incredible day in Rio thanks to our guide - The guide Priscylla took us on an incredible tour, the most incredible thing was how she treated us all, we want to do a tour with her and the driver Victor again. Of course, a guide makes a difference in adding a plus to your tour, and Pricylla did just that, adding a plus to our tour. She was very accurate in her comments and very pleasant with everyone.

Amazing tour with passionate Joao and safe driver Daniel; highly recommend for a memorable Rio experience despite rain! - We had an incredible time and learned so much with Joao. His passion and seamless transitions between languages were impressive. He was also great at answering our group's random questions, ensuring no one felt left out. Although we had to explore on a rainy day during our short stay in Rio, the company made the experience enjoyable. Our driver Daniel was fantastic—ensuring our safety, helping us avoid puddles, and assisting with entry and exit. The van was spotless and air-conditioned. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again on my next visit.

Rip tour for a Solo traveler - I wanted to explore Rio but since I was alone, I couldn’t do much.. when I saw the tour Ad, I immediately asked the agent and booked a spot. I am happy with the experience overall. I don’t think I would have been able to do as much on my own and this tour was exactly what I needed to enjoy my stay in Rio.

Wasn't worth the money. (Misrepresented tour format and service failures.) - Buy the tour from the Copacabana stretch, better value for money, my friends paid $75 and went to two additional sites than this tour. Here are some of the Pro and issues- Pro - Guide was friendly and tried to make everyone feel comfortable. Primary Issues: 1. Misrepresented Service: Booked specifically for English-speaking guide but received trilingual tour. Constant translation between Portuguese, Spanish, and English severely limited historical information delivery. 2. Poor Logistics: - Bus arrived 10 minutes late - Christ the Redeemer visit during peak cloud cover made photography impossible - Selarón Stairs overcrowded due to poor timing - Guide lacked identification tools, causing confusion during regrouping 3. Inadequate Time Management: Insufficient time at major attractions (Cathedral, Stairs, Christ statue) despite paying "skip the line" premium. 4. Substandard Inclusions: - Restaurant poorly represented Brazilian cuisine - No complimentary water provided for full-day tropical tour Value Comparison: The tour failed to deliver promised English-focused experience and suffered from multiple operational issues. Comparable tours at significantly lower prices provide superior value. Hilton pickup at 8am, drop off at 3.43pm
