        Fun and engaging.
        Our guide was the best! She provided great info on the local sites and answered all our questions. She gave us great insight on other things to do while we were in Rio as well! Would recommend to anyone!

        Highly recommended
        We had a limited time in Rio, so picked the half day Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer tour. Karla and Audre were absolutely fabulous - they clearly know exactly what they are doing and got us quickly and efficiently to the sights so we could relax and spend lots of time enjoying the views and surrounds - I’d really recommend this tour.

        Guide Lucigiana and Driver Andre
        The geographical features of Rio need no description they are world renowned and as fabulous as you would expect. What made our tour so special was Lu and driver Andre they were fun, informative and went out of their way to make sure we were treated like VIPs.

        The best of Rio with the best of tour guide
        Kiko was an amazing guide. What I liked was the discussions he was having was very interesting and not too much. Was able to organise us through the queues, and of course the whole experience of Christ The Redeemer and Sugarloaf mountain were incredible. Highly recommend.

        Friendly guide who will make your day and future trip memorable
        Wilcelio was a fantastic guide for our afternoon trip. He helped us navigate the queues to maximise our time. Shared information about the sights and points of interest in the city. He took some great pictures for us which we much better than the ones they try to sell at the attractions. Thanks again for your help and tips for our onward travels. We really enjoyed our tour and getting to know you and your city. Also shout out to Andres the driver who helped to navigate the G20 summit traffic. He got us through the security like VIPs. Thank you both :)

        Day trip to Christ Redeemer and sugar loaf mountain
        This was a once in a lifetime experience made so special by such a great tour guide pair Karla and Flávio. They are so friendly and made me feel so welcome. Karla knows the city like the back of her hand and I recommend anyone to go with her. She took great photos for us. Rio is an amazing place I wish I didn’t have to leave!

        Great half day seeing Rio’s epic sights
        Fantastic tour, professional, informative and fun. The entire morning ran like clockwork, pickup and drop offs were on time. Our guide, Meilin was superb. 10/10. Highly recommend.

      Peter and Andrew were amazing tour guides. So much info about Rio packed into a partial day trip to see Christ the Redeemer. They helped find the best photo spots and helped with pictures. I loved that this trip allowed us to skip the crowds. Definitely a tour worth taking! Beautiful experience with excellent guides!

      The drive up to see Christ the Redeemer was an unexpected bonus. Peter, our guide, was first class. We were a small group, but we gelled well, thanks to his approach. His knowledge was great and his sense of humour entertained us.
      Would love to come back and do another tour.

      I booked the morning Christ the redeemer & Sugar loaf mountain tour, however due to bad weather (heavy mist) we could not see anything. Our tour guide Carmen was amazing, she kept apologising (so sweet!) and made the best out of a bad situation and added on extra cool places to visit downtown (I paid an extra 100R$, since I had not previously booked the whole day tour).

      I am a solo traveller and wanted to do the the major attractions with a English speaking tour guide and Carmen's English was perfect.

      I would recommend this company to anyone looking to do activities in Rio de Janeiro the company are great at responding to any messages via email or WhatsApp.

      What an amazing experience travelling up to and visiting the statue of Christ the Redeemer made so much more relevant by the excellent depth of knowledge shared with the group by our guide Monica who was brilliant. Thank you Monica.
