It was a really enjoyable experience. Not having to wait in line, going straight to the attraction, and enjoying it to the fullest means I can wholeheartedly recommend it. 10 out of 10. What's more, the customer service channels were always very attentive.

It was an excellent plan, the schedules were respected, the staff was very friendly and provided accurate information, the sites visited were very beautiful, and the buses were very comfortable. I highly recommend this plan for families, couples, or individuals. The weather was perfect, and the air-conditioned transportation was the best. You can enjoy yourself in comfort and peace.

Booked this for my first trip with my girlfriend and gotta say – SOOO worth it. Our guide was super chill, kept telling lil stories about each stop. Views from the top were EPIC! Just a heads-up, if you’re scared of heights, brace yourself. It was a bit crowded but not unbearable. We went early morning, so def recommend that. Would do again for sure!

Did this with a group of friends. Tour started a bit late (Brazil time, I guess ha) but we hit all the spots. Christ the Redeemer is huge! Guide made us laugh with stories about the city. Selaron Steps were busy but sooo colorful. Sugarloaf at sunset = chef’s kiss. Would go again but maybe not during high season.

The tour completely fulfilled our expectations. Patricia, our guide, was attentive at all times, explained each site and was very entertaining. We met many river titles in one day and the food was delicious and plentiful. Highly recommended.
