Great - Wonderful team. The guide Isabelle was excellent, the lunch was very delicious, it was worth the trip. I recommend the tour, it was incredible and it certainly wouldn't have been the same going alone

Christ, sugar loaf - Excellent walk, punctuality and comfort in the transfers, the guide Peter explains absolutely everything, and is ready to answer your concerns, without a doubt that when I return to Rio I would not hesitate to do other walks with them!!!!

Family from Cuiabá-MT - The tour in Arraial do Cabo was incredible, a beautiful place, the Guide Juliana is simply a wonderful person, among many I have met, super attentive. I'm going back to Rio and I'm going to travel again with Pepe rio tours. I loved the company, low costs and incredible people to do business with.

Excellent - Guide Rogelio guided us all the way and was always attentive to all the tourists. We are from Chile and we wanted to get to know Brazil, especially Rio de Janeiro for its history and beaches. We will never forget this trip.

Good luck but too much time for pickup - We were picked up a few minutes early at our hotel and placed in a minibus. Then the pick-up of the other 10 travelers took an hour, even though it was a short distance. Good guidance but unfortunately in three languages so it got a bit messy. Good visit to the statue of Christ, the Sugarloaf and the church. Lunch good but very messy premises.

Didn't show or communicate with us! - This was a horrible experience. I've done a lot of traveling and a lot of Viator trips and this was the worst ever. I booked the day before the trip, which is a bit late but Viator had it as available and several other operators for the same tour also had next day availability so it didn't seem strange. Next morning at the time I selected to be picked up (they offer several) there was no one there. I waited for 15 minutes and tried using the chat - no one responded. So I started poking around the site and found the name of the vendor and used their website to find their phone number to call. The guy was rather rude which I admit made me less than friendly either. He said they do not pick up at my hotel. That's odd since ya know, there's a drop down on the site for hotels and times and I picked the combo I wanted. Then he changes his mind to say it was because I booked too late and if I wanted he'd rebook be for the next day AT ANOTHER LOCATION. This set off all the red flags of this booking. First he changed his story for why they weren't there, then tries to make me swap somewhere else that is more convenient. Add in that if I hadn't searched around online to find their information no one was planning on reaching out to me at all and I was just done with all of them. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 because they did provide a refund without issue when I refused his idea for me to taxi to somewhere else for them the next day. But overall DO NOT BOOK THIS
