Super trip day - Very beautiful places and so many stops. The tour picked up and dropped off in our hotel. This is important.

Amazing sights with an emphasis on fun - Beautiful stops. Plenty of time for swimming and walking. The boat ride was fun, although it had quite the party boat theme, so perhaps not as catered to some of the elderly guests as it got quire noisy at times. It didn't bother me personally, but if you're not looking to drink and mingle you might steer towards a quieter tour.

Over all it was a good trip. Just... - <p>Over all it was a good trip. Just not for me.<br/> I like to be more independent and get a chance to explore more on my own. <br/> I felt like I wasted a day and $90 to not really see anything. Not an experience I haven't had before! <br/> But hey, why complain, I'm in Brazil!</p>
