Peter was amazing. Very informative, polite and made sure we were getting the experience we wanted. I would suggest paying the extra for all of the entrance fees. Peter is friendly and knows all of the best spots to stand and get the best pictures. He has a lot of knowledge about places he is speaking about as well as recommendations. I would go on this tour again.

When short on time, this tour is perfect. It leaves early (7am) getting there before the crowds and you are finished by 11am.

Great to get to the top before the crowds with a friendly knowledgeable guide who went out of their way to make our trip memorable and easy

This tour was great. Our tour guide Monica was fantastic, she was always very clear and had lots of interesting information from start to finish. I had tried to go to see Christ the redeemer earlier on in the week but was not able to due to the cloudy weather. I only had one last day in Rio and needed an early tour in order to see it. Thanks to this tour I was able to see it. Thank you to Monica for a great morning tour.

Excelente experiencia! Sergio un 7 como guía! muy simpático, muy bue dominio del inglés y el español. Nos explico muchísimo y fue muy cordial Lo recomiendo 100% recomiendo además hacerlo temprano en la mañana para no encontrar tanta gente en el cristo, como pasa a medio dia.

Our tour guide (Carmen) was on time and REALLY knowledgeable and friendly, highly recommend this tour.
-
Sandra nuestro guía fue increíble, paciente y encantadora. El ingreso temprano es real y aun así te encuentras con bastante gente cuando llegas. Pero es mucho mejor que encontrarse con las multitudes que llegan más tarde.

I booked the morning Christ the redeemer & Sugar loaf mountain tour, however due to bad weather (heavy mist) we could not see anything. Our tour guide Carmen was amazing, she kept apologising (so sweet!) and made the best out of a bad situation and added on extra cool places to visit downtown (I paid an extra 100R$, since I had not previously booked the whole day tour). I am a solo traveller and wanted to do the the major attractions with a English speaking tour guide and Carmen's English was perfect. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to do activities in Rio de Janeiro the company are great at responding to any messages via email or WhatsApp.
