Reviews
We found the tailor made tour and took the customized tour.
Gus was our guide for the day. We started with some places we wanted to see and asked Gus to help show us interesting and different sights.
We started our day at Christ the Redeemer. I explained that I have a bit of a height issue. Gus was great to help me with the the apprehension I had on the way up and once at the top.
After we saw the beautiful sights from the top we decided Sugarloaf would be just another view from up high. We changed our plans and Gus was great to find off the beaten path, cultural places to show us.
We went to the Portuguese Library /Reading Room. What an amazing and beautiful building!
We then went to the Arches of Lapa and took a tram ride through a quaint neighborhood. The tram was old fashioned with wooden seats and a wooden bar lowered and raised to allow people on and off. This team takes you to end of the line, then the seats flip and you ride back. Many locals ride this to shop for groceries.
The tram crosses the aquaduct. We learned that people in the brought buckets to the aquaduct to take water back to their homes in the forest.
Next, we drove through the financial district and Gus pointed out many beautiful buildings like the Opera House.
As we drove around we went by the are a for Carnival and Gus explained the route for the floats, seating in the stands.
Next, we went to Escadaria Selaron. Gus gave us great detail about the tiles on the steps and the ones on the sides. In past people would send tiles from their home, state, town or local area and Selaron would install them.
Next, Gus took us to a good restaurant, the famous Cafeteria Columbo.
We next walked to the Church of St. Anthony and St. Francis. Beautiful!
Last was fevala, the shanty town. This was interesting and a must.
Gus is fabulous . Book this tour and enjoy!
During the entirety of both of our tours, Gus was energetic and personable. It was obvious to me that Gus's aim was for each one of us to have a memorable and amazing tour. Which we did. Thanks, Gus. Can't wait to tour with you again in the future.
