Highly Recommended! This tour was just perfect for me as I only had 2 days in Rio, but wanted to see the main attractions.
Helber was our guide, and when I went down to my hotel lobby 5 minutes before the scheduled pickup time, he was already there waiting for me. I really appreciated it.
Once I got on the van, they continued picking up more people for the next 30 minutes.
If you sign u for his tour, make sure you install Whatsapp as they contact you there- and be at the pic up point on time!
Our tour started at Christ the Redeemer, then Maracana, Catedral, Escadaria Selarón, Lunch buffet, and sugar loaf.
So much in one day but I did not feel rushed.
Helber is literally the friendliest guy you will meet in Brasil, and he led the group so well. He gave attentions to everyone and made sure we are having a good time!
Our driver was also friendly and fun!
I was back at my hotel before 5pm.
Considering this tour includes all the admissions and lunch, it is a good value.
The best thing about this is I did not have to worry about getting from point A to B, to C, D and timing. I loved everything! Book this tour!

A great experience to see Rio in a nutshell! The big 2 was Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain, followed by lunch and some city sight seeing.

The tour was actually very good probably worth more than 3 stars .. if you've got limited time or want to tick it off in a day then it's a good choice.
Guide was good.... driver not so
I understand we are in south america...maybe they do drive crazy? However this driver was unacceptable...dangerous infact. We had 2 serious emergency braking incidents. Racing around for no reason..weaving in and out...going around corners like as fast as possible...not a nice experience. I think he forgot he had people including children in the van...
This guy may think it's acceptable and he was a good driver but take it from me as a professional driver for over 30 years carrying the most precious cargo you can he was disgraceful!! Should be ashamed of himself.
Sugar loaf was the best stop on the trip.. if you have time do it alone but. No need for a trip... definitely safer !

Selaron steps, Christ the Redeemer were pretty amazing. Views from the top of sugarloaf were great.
Would have to say, lunch place was pretty dreadful, not nice food and was very late in the tour.
Also would prefer a tour where guide was speaking several different languages. Was distracting.

Basically a tour where you get shipped from one place to the other - no real history or insight provided which was poor
Pretty unprofessional all day as well
So sights were brilliant and lunch was ok but overall it was expensive for what you got
