This is a great way to experience a different aspect of Rio, away from the beaches and major tourist sites. Our guide gave us a lot of basic info about city. Only spent a short time in the forest but got a good sense of the area. Had an extensive tour in the Botanical Garden and our guide was knowledgeable about the flora.

We booked this experience from India, not knowing what to expect, but I must say, we are beyond impressed with the service. Alexia, our tour guide, kept us well-informed about the itinerary and upcoming tours. We visited Christ the Redeemer, the Selarón Steps, and caught the sunset at Sugarloaf Mountain. There were tourists from all over—Europe, India, the US, Uruguay—and Alexia greeted each of us in our own languages. She was incredibly funny, keeping us entertained throughout the journey, and her knowledge of local history added so much to each visit. It felt like she knew everyone everywhere, making the process seamless, especially since she already had all the tickets prepared. A huge shout-out to Alexia and George, our driver—an amazing duo!

We went on the Rio Sunset Tour Including Sugarloaf, Christ the Redeemer, Cathedral and Selaron and it was a great tour. Our guide was very good and interesting. The only thing I would change is to include Marakana in this tour. All recomendations for this tour.

This was a great tour. Our tour guide Danilo was an amazing guide. It starts with the team car ride then you walk through some different parts of town, go to the steps and finish with a trip to a cafe. This tour exceeded my expectations and I am very glad that I did it.

One of my favorite tours: well organized, informative with a relaxed, very easy going and friendly guide fluent in both English and Spanish. The 1/2 day option’s a great value with tickets included to make visiting the Christ the Redeemer statue as easy as it can be. It’s a bucket list, you’ll be glad you did go place but also completely overcrowded even at 10am on an offseason Tuesday. Selarón steps were an unexpected, pleasant surprise too. I’m pretty well traveled and would recommend this one.

Our tour guide, Favio, was great! He shared so much history about the city. The views were amazing, then when coupled with the background...the experience was awesome!

A great full trip to see all of the sights . It was our last full day here in Rio . We had already seen most of the itinerary but this was a lovely whistle stop summary of the ‘smaller’ attractions, and a fantastic opportunity to see the larger sites in depth . Our guide Publio was fantastic, helped us feel safe , and kept us informed and interested throughout the day . I recommend the full day !

Thomas was an excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We were able to visit the highlights of the forest and botanical garden while learning so much about the history and culture of Brazil.

The views was beautiful. We took so many photos! I'm really looking forward going on another with similar quality. I like the way the operator explained each experience in detail so we could better understand the culture and backgrounds of the areas we where about to visit.

Great tour, highly recommend C2Rio. No rushing friendly guide lots of information, Patricia was really great translating to English for me even that I was the only English speaking member on the tour. Lunch is all you can eat and really nice.

I booked this tour the day before and was kept up to date with the meeting location and time to the point of my pick up. Having done a tour the day before I was expecting a mini bus but on arrival I found my transport was a lot smaller. In fact due to a cancellation at the last minute Gastavo the tour guide told me that this was going to be a one to one tour! We began our tour by looking at the old sea port where the slaves were shipped into Rio. The story was fascinating and we left the old harbour and looked at the olympic Boulevard. Time has taken its toll on the colourful artwork but it is still there reminding you of some of the countries involved in the Games. It was nice to see the electric trains running through the Boulevard too. We continued our journey looking at old and new architecture and fantastic Churches. There were more reminders of the Games on route and finally we found our way onto the waterfront for the Museum of Tomorrow and a walk past a number of different ships and a submarine. I enjoyed the Museum and anyone who would like to know more about our planet would find it very worthwhile. We ended our trip at the Confeitaria Columbo and took in the magnificent interior and enjoyed something to eat and drink before bringing the tour to an end and travelling back to the pick up location. As a tour guide Gastavo was very knowledgeable which is not surprising for someone who has been in the business for over 20 years and has a History degree. He was full of energy throughout the tour and was only too willing to answer questions and take photographs for me to make my day memorable. For the price I paid this was a fantastic tour for anyone who loves culture and really getting to know the place you are visiting. But having a personal tour made it even more special. I’m glad that I chose this and would definitely recommend it to people wanting a great way to spend 4 hours in Rio.

My daughter complained about the mosquitoes but the Atlantic rainforest was beautiful, cool (temperature), and the guide provided interesting information

They charge abusive prices on the TripAdvisor website. They charged R$ 323 for a tour that is worth R$ 170 with the same company that conducts the tour (Free Way). The tour I took did not have an English/Spanish translation. The sailor asked if anyone on board spoke English to translate for a Canadian couple on the boat. The itinerary information is not clear. I requested a refund, but it was denied

All places were great and had enough time to visit, apart from Maracanã stadium which we did not got inside (also that was not well explained on the description of this tour) and only had 5 minutes to take pictures of the main entrance. Our lunch was super great, a delicious Brazilian bbq place. Definitely recommend the food and this tour. Overall we had an awesome city tour.

Fabulous experience with lots to do and see. NOTHING IS TOO EXPENSIVE. THE HELICOPTER TOUR WAS £150. WE WERE WARY WANDERING THE STREETS BUT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
