4.00The guide was great. His language skills were excellent. He was knowledgeable and made sure we were looked after. It was great to see Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf. The bbq was excellent and covered a lot of different types of food. My only criticism was the bus felt very compact.

5.00The tour was great. You’ll end up touching on the main attractions of the city in one day, which is not as common, but you will have the right pace and time to see each site. Our guide Alessandro was the nicest guy, super knowledgeable and available to any needs. Highly recommend.

5.00I had an amazing experience on the Full Day: Christ Redeemer, Sugarloaf, City Tour & Barbecue Lunch tour! Everything was incredibly well organized—from the comfortable, air-conditioned van to the smooth hotel pickup and drop-off. We were able to see all the major highlights of Rio, including Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Morro da Urca, and several beautiful neighborhoods. A very special mention goes to Alessandro, our tour guide. He was fantastic—knowledgeable, engaging, and made the entire day feel effortless. His commentary in multiple languages, along with his fun stories and local insights, really enriched the experience. You can tell he truly loves what he does. The entrance fees being included made everything stress-free, and the Brazilian barbecue lunch was delicious—a perfect break in the middle of the day. Overall, this tour was the perfect way to explore Rio’s main attractions in one day. Highly recommend, especially with a guide like Alessandro!
Beautiful Rio!
