Overpriced for what you get! For elderly people with walking problems this is a no no since you need to walk up stairs to get from the street entrance to the elevator, which takes you, (if and when it works) to the reception on the second floor. The carpeted floor in the reception and dining areas are stained and could need a thorough cleaning. My room was okay, except there were no towel holders in the bathroom or soap dish in the shower stall. For hot water you need to let the water run for at least 10-15 minutes. Daytime receptionist not particularly caring. The only redeeming factor is the hotel’s central location.

It was perfectly planned from beginning to end. Excelente communication with tour coordinador & driver. Pilot was attentive, friendly. We ended up flying alone w pilot which made it more especial.

If I could give this experience 7 stars, I would ! We were a party of 12 and we were looked after brilliantly. The views of Rio with the time we had were just spectacular. Thank you so much to the team that looked after us and the go pro video was an additional bonus. Don’t hesitate, this is a must do!

Our pilot was most amazing I have flown with. She was knowledgable and so cool. Felt in safe hands, seen beautiful Rio from above. This was one thing I truly enjoyed and would do again in few years time.

Nos recogieron del hotel puntuales, pero cuando íbamos de camino al helicóptero empezó una tormenta increíble con rayos calles inundadas y arboles caidos, el transporte llamo a central y nos llevo de vuelta al hotel , este año no pudo ser pero con el excelente trato recibido seguro que repetimos en breve.

We hired some transfer services and were happy every time: punctuality, attentive and friendly drivers, new, clean and well-maintained cars and a lot of flexibility for schedule adjustments. We recommend it with enthusiasm.

Un moment inoubliable avec un pilote au top ! Malgré une météo capricieuse, le pilote a fait le maximum pour nous donner satisfaction. Prise en charge et retour à l’hôtel et vol de manière individuelle : on recommande à 200%

Beeindruckendes Erlebnis. Wir wurden am Hotel abgeholt und waren dann 4 Gäste mit Fahrer im PKW. War etwas eng mit fremden Menschen. Dafür wurden wir mit einem grandiosen Flug entschädigt. Wir sind wirklich fast 30 Minuten geflogen und waren mit der Pilotin nur zu dritt im Heli. Der Blick von oben auf Rio ist einfach übewältigend.
