Awesome day in Rio! - Our guide, Louis was incredible! He gave all information in English and Spanish, maneuvered the many crowded places with clear instructions. The tour did run over but it wasn’t a problem for anyone in our group. We ended the day at a Brazilian Steakhouse in Brazil!

Great Find - Relied on our hotel concierge to find a tour of all the rio highlights. Street vendors don't have English speaking guides. Grayling has multi lingual guides. We had Gabi, who provided narration in English, Spanish, and Portuguese to accommodate all guests in the mini bus. Outstanding experience. Both mountain tops, the cathedral, the steps, and an end of tour meal at a Brazilian steak house.

Our day with Patricia was wonderful! - Patricia was our tour guide and she did a really nice job with us today. She was very patient as the tour was very long and took up the entire day because of all the crowds and because of the new year. She was able to be patient with us and very helpful and we even went to dinner. We had a lovely birthday dinner! Patricia is a very wonderful tour guide, and I enjoyed spending the day with her.

The most amazing, informative tour/guide - The trip was amazing because of our spectacular tour guide Ms. Tania (TT)! Her knowledge of the history of the locations was impressive! She presented the information in English, Italian, and Portugués with joy, humor and infectious positive energy! When you sign up for this tour for the attractions, I highly recommend requesting the tour guide who is “Simply The BEST” Tania (TT)!

Dramatic Views - This excursion is a great overview of the top sites in Rio. The views are spectacular! Gabi, our guide, provided translation between English, Spanish, and Portuguese to accommodate all guests in the mini bus. She was very polite and solicitous of the varying guests requirements. Lunch, which was excellent, was included at a traditional Brazilian restaurant with very friendly staff. Only drawback was that the van was too small for not only the size of our group but also anyone over 5'8"

Sugarloaf, Christ the Redeemer and Selaron stairs - The best thing about Sugar Loaf is its beautiful views, unfortunately the short time granted does not allow you to admire much the different views you have. Christ the Redeemer is the representative place of Rio de Janeiro, only at the time we went it was full of people. The stairs of Selarón is another obligatory stop, knowing and climbing them is attractive, you have options to buy souvenirs at a better price than in the previous places. Overall a nice walk with a very friendly and cheerful guide

Disappointing - We had expected that the tour company would have organized pre purchase of tickets to the major attractions rather than having us wait in line. The 5 hour tour turned into 8 hours or more with all our waiting. We never did see the famous painted steps in the old city as the whole area was full of many young drunk people and impossible to safely reach the steps.

Each site visit deserves more time than the allotted. - Very short time at each place visited. Too much time spent picking up guests at each hotel; therefore delaying the start of the tour.
