Marco, our tour guide was outgoing, fun, and informative. The trip from start to finish was well organized. Would highly recommend!
The best tour of Rio de Janeiro’s main tourist sites at a great price.

I was able to book at the last minute for this C2Rio Christ the Redeemer tour and the 12:30pm start time for this 5+ hour tour for perfectly into put schedule. My hotel in the Copacabana area was on C2Rios’s pickup list. Most other tours started at 8:30am. The cost to value was spectacular and the tour included admission to Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf Gondola ride up the mountainside. We also were excited to have an extra stop at Tijuca National Park, which afforded our group the most breathtaking views and photo opportunities of all. Unfortunately it was a foggy day and we could only see the outline of Christ the Redeemer and no view of the beaches below. This is why our tour operator spent the extra effort to take us on this additional stop to Tijuca National Park and make us all happy on this tour. Put group then stopped at the modern Catedral Metropolitana with its Christmas decorations. The tour ended with the Selaron Steps the day Argentina won the world soccer cup. Amazing day. I can’t say enough about the positive energy of our tour operator (Adig?) I didn’t ask him to spell his name and am sorry if I misspelled it.
Fantastic excursion & wonderful tour guide!

Loved this excursion for many reasons, the first being our fantastic tour guide- Marco. Marco was so friendly and full of interesting tidbits of info. He was also at the ready to capture great pictures of my husband and myself. Christ the Redeemer was absolutely stunning and the Selarón steps were amazing. The van was new, comfortable and there was air conditioning! We also appreciated getting picked up and dropped off at our hotel (door to door service is so nice). This was a fantastic morning and a great value. I highly recommend this excursion and cannot write enough good words about Marco. Thank you!
Rio attractions. Best deal! Great service.

Booked this tour at the last minute and I'm happy I did. Carla was fantastic. She spoke Portuguese, Spanish and English. We spent more than enough time at each attraction.
