A wonderful tour with a likewise guide and driver - Carlos Adriano is a kind, accommodating and impressive polyglot. A knowledgeable guide he made this tour memorable and enjoyable. He has the patience of a Saint. For all walks of life, families, couples, solo travelers and elder couples, he is most highly recommended. The driver Pedro too, was excellent and generous with even allowing me to charge my phone in his van outlet!

Beauty of Brasil - Everything was so great. The city is just so special! The tour guide G was very patient with the group and knowledgeable. Recommend comfortable shoes and lots of water eventhough you can get it throughout the tour.

A Great Intro to Rio Highlights - Sandra was our guide and she was friendly and knowledgeable. We had a slight snafu when Sandra tried to alter the itinerary to take us to Sugar Loaf first. She forgot that it was Monday, not Sunday, and we arrived hours before it was open. So back on the bus we went to follow the original itinerary. After that, things went smoothly. CTR was impressive but quite crowded, as were the Selaron Steps. Sugar Loaf was fantastic. The lunch was just okay. I felt a little rushed at some sites (15-20 minutes free time at each), but otherwise it was a great experience!

Solid tour but warning if you’re claustrophobic - This was a solid tour in terms of the guide, who was great, and how things were organized. We covered a lot of ground in a way that doing on our own would have been challenging. I gave 3 stars because the van is fine but if at capacity, it’s too crammed and uncomfortable for a long day. By the time we were picked up the only seats were in the very back and a few minutes in when we hit traffic I nearly had a panic attack. I couldn’t see anything outside, the way the seats are elevated and it was hot and I knew I couldn’t survive. I was prepared to exit the tour at the first stop, but instead, made sure I was the first person on the van after stop #1 and unfortunately “took” someone else’s more comfortable seat. Thankfully at the second stop some others did exit the tour early and everything was fine from there. Only other thing was that lunch was underwhelming and a couple of the stops were a little pointless. If you can splurge for a private tour, do it. If you’re on a budget, do this one if you’re not claustrophobic and don’t have high expectations for lunch.

Unenthusiastic guide/uninformative tour - Very nice guide but had very limited information. It was like a 3 sentence explanation of what the site was and we were let go to ‘take photos’ for 10-15 minutes or so. We did ask questions to possibly get him to talk or explain more but there was not to much more information there. We would have loved to hear about the rich history of Brazil and how it came to be! It just seemed like the guide was not very enthusiastic about his job! Food was meh but beware the drinks if you choose alcohol are very strong.
