A Must Do In Rio - Highly recommended. Got to see all the main attractions of Rio in one day with a great group of folks but the main star was Monica, the guide. She was excellent and went above and beyond to explain everything I'm detail with lots of humor.. Excellent job!!!

A good Introduction to Rio - It took a while for this tour to get organised. The guide did not have a sign and was wandering about calling out names to locate her guests, which was difficult in such a large, noise crowd. Our first stop was Sugarloaf Mountain. The views were spectacular. Our next stop was the buffet lunch. It was chaos and noisy and we couldn’t even eat with our friends on the tour, as they just took everyone two by two as spaces opened up. However, the food was very tasty. Our next stop, Christ the Redeemer Statue was the highlight of the tour. We had two more quick stops, a cathedral and the Selaron Steps before completing the tour.

A great introduction to Rio - We arrived in Rio on a cruise and were picked up from outside the cruise terminal as arranged. The tour guide was very good. First stop was Christ the Redeemer, and even at 11 in the morning there was a long line, about 1 hour, to get the van to the top. It was packed with people at the top and hard to get a decent photo, but we expected that. The other stops were ok but I felt a little rushed at the Cathedral. Buffet lunch in a local restaurant was very good. The line for the cable car at Sugar Loaf Mountain wasn’t too bad, and the views up there superb. Traffic in Rio is very hectic, it takes a long while to get anywhere, the roads are very bumpy, which made it a bit unpleasant on the bus, but the driver did his best to stay on time. It was a long and tiring day but definitely worth it.

Great views of the city - You get to see fantastic views of the city from the main viewpoints but not much of the city itself. You will drive by some sights in downtown but only stop at three. It’s a long day and the queues can be long but it’s a great trip
