Sugarloaf and Christ The Redeemer
The guide was great. A clean air conditioned van.
My only complaint was that we did not visit all the stops advertised.

Flavio was a great guide...
Flavio was a great guide and the entire tour from pickup to drop-off was smooth. The bus was comfortable and air conditioned.

The guide was very friendly, helpful and educational. We saw everything on the itinerary in record time.

If you're visiting Rio...
If you're visiting Rio (and not just there to tan) you're going to visit these places. If you're someone that wants to accomplish them all in a day, then there's no way better to do it than through a tour! This timed up well to beat all the major rushes of traffic (you will still have some lines to wait in, don't believe the hype of fast pass) particularly as we finished up Sugarloaf.

Total tour time misleading
The estimated time does not include the travel time. We were on the bus, transporting people for almost 4 hours. Estimated tour time was 8 hours, however total time was closer to 12.5 hours. Should be disclosed up front to allow for our party to determine if we can accommodate a 12+ hour day.

Perfect Day in RIO
The sites were beautiful. The food was delicious and plentiful. The guide was kind and took good care of us. The only difficulty was understanding her English. Every Viator tour that I have taken has been worth every cent. Thank you and thank you for your flexibility. I originally scheduled our tour on the wrong day when we were not even in RIO. You were so kind to switch it to the correct week. I would recommend Viator and every one of your tours!

Rio Highlights!
We enjoyed this tour so much. We saw all the main sites and had plenty of time at each. I highly recommend this tour.

Should have been more
Jonas was great as a tour guide. He was very organized and took good care of everyone.
I think the tour could have made one more stop before sugarloaf mountain, where we spent over two hours. You don’t need over two hours to transport between the cable cars and take pictures atop a mountain.

Wonderful experience
Fun, very inhaling guide, well organized. I would recommend it for anyone wanting a full day introduction to Rio

Good tour
Great day out to see most of the key sites in Rio. If you have only one day, this will hit all the highlights. Your was on time, we did not queue anywhere really (except a little bit at Christ the Redeemer) , and had an excellent lunch. A day well spent - would recommend

Great way to see important Rio sights
Great excursion to see some of the well-known sights around Rio. Our guide gave very good explanations of the sights; the driver drove very safely. It was a long day on a van but we met many great people along the way.

Fantastic day!
We had Ederson as our guide, and he was fantastic. Not only did he take us to all of the tourist attractions, we could tell that he really had our best interests in mind. He took the most incredible photos, was very knowledgeable, and gave great recommendations. He’s clearly an expert on everything Rio de Janeiro!
