Visiting Rio in Style and able to fully relax with the family.
Tathiana_B, Aug 2022
It was a great experience. We felt well taken care of, and having someone taking pictures while my family and I just enjoyed the landscapes and beauty of the Corcovado and Sugar Loaf was a wonderful treat to end our vacation with golden keys. Everything went very smoothly. We had a wonderful photographer, Pedro, and a pleasant and safe driver, Alex. Now I just have to go over the many pictures (more than 100) to choose my favorites :-)
