I only had one full day in Rio and I didn't regret choosing Monica's tour. They took me to practically everywhere that I could think of as a "must-see" during a short visit. The fact that a larger Australian group was there created a family-friendly and relaxed atmosphere. 5*

We had an amazing experience on this tour in Rio! Visiting Christ the Redeemer was truly breathtaking the view from the top is unforgettable and one of those moments you will always remember. We also went up to Sugarloaf Mountain, where the panoramic views of the city, the ocean, and the surrounding mountains are simply spectacular. A special thank you to our guide, Peter, who was excellent. He explained the history of the places in a very interesting way, was always happy to answer our questions, and made sure everyone had a wonderful time. His knowledge and great sense of humor made the whole experience even better. We would also like to thank our driver, Bruno. He was very professional, kind, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire tour. Overall, it was a perfectly organized tour with incredible views and wonderful people. We highly recommend it to anyone who wants to truly experience the beauty of Rio!

It was a very fulfilling tour where we were able to get a feel for Brazil and learn about its history. Our guide, Monica, was also very attentive and helpful, giving each person a clear and easy-to-understand guide, which made for a wonderful trip. Thank you very much.
