Never again in Rio bad tour wasted money
Steven_M, Dec 2023
Site says 3 hour tour, did not expect 1 hour driving to pick up other tour props and one hour dropping off , at Christ we only had 30 min and city and steps stops we had 15-20 min , that’s not even enough time to go to bathroom, guide did not explain very much , and when requested info did not provide . This is the worst $80 I have spent on your tour , I have down tour with your company before , guide was dressed like a homeless person not professional representative of your company , not friendly and was not a memorable experience
Too many long lines - Find a private tour!

Your description of this tour was not quite how it happened. Your bus takes us only part way up and then you have take a bus run by the park it is in. Your guide should have had the tickets for this when we arrived...but we had to wait 30 minutes in the blazing sun while she got them and THEN we had to wait almost an hour in the line to get the bus up to Christ. Unacceptable! What a colossal waste of time. Once back down at the bottom, our guide (Francyelle) said we had time to shop. So, I went into the shop while others looked at the photos that were taken before our ride up. When we came out 10 minutes later, everyone was gone. We assumed they walked back down to the waiting area for our bus back to the hotel. Indeed they were there. Francyelle asked who was missing once down at the pickup point. Our other family said we were shopping. She asked if one of them could ring us because we had to leave RIGHT NOW, that the bus was coming. We showed up moments later. She saw our shopping bags and asked, Where are you receipts? My mother and I pulled them out. She snatched them and started to hurry away. I said, Where are you going? She responded she would be right back. She came back 20 MINUTES later! and our bus was no where in sight. She said she had to get her commission. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? She said we HAD to leave right away but all of a sudden she takes off with our receipts without any explanation? OH HELL NO! Not cool. I had to ask for our receipts back as she didn't want to return them to us. I said that I would need them for customs upon arrival back in the USA and she finally relinquished them. Our bus did not show up for another 30 minutes!!! Sadly, for you, I am a travel agent. I will NEVER sell this tour to any of my clients.
Passeio memorável
