“The title and description of this tour captures the eye despite the slightly higher price. However, it is all MISLEADING. The guide was hardly fluent in english, and little knowledgable about the city and tour. She announced the end of tour already at Escadaria Selaron stairs. After confronting her with the tour description we have visited: Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon (Pass By) Corcovado - Christ the Redeemer Santa Teresa Escadaria Selaron Carioca Aqueduct (Pass By) Boulevard Olimpico Museu do Amanha (Pass By) Painel Etnias (Pass By) while there was no way we could accomplish the rest of the promised tour: Sambodromo da Marques de Sapucai Maracana Ipanema Beach (Pass By)…”

“Our ship was delayed in docking, but our guide and driver were still waiting 3 hours after we were able to dock. Guide Antonio (call me Tony) was one of the best we have experienced using Viator. Even though we had missed our scheduled time at Sugarloaf Mountain, his familiarity with the Mountain lines and Mountain staff allowed us to take advantage of the skip the line (best choice we made prior to arriving in Rio…recommend you do skip the line for the Mountain and Christ The Redeemer—and do it well before you arrive in Rio as times for skip the line sell out).
