Overview of your Rio De Janeiro tour
On this tour I suggest we could visit one of the stunning views of Rio Dona marta view point is one my favourite spots in Rio. Its located inside of Tijuca national park. It's perfect fo those that a relaxing tour due the fact that There 's no crowds, no tickets, and it has amazing views to the city. Then leaving the park we move driving through the cobble stone streets of Santa Teresa, we make a stop at the Ruins house to observe different angles of the city. Then we run smoothly until the selaron stairs, the famous colorful staircase in lapa. Feel free to change for one of those on the list that you would like to visit. I give you some suggestions on the below: Sugar loaf Chist Reedemer Botanical garden Tijuca forest Beaches City center Cathedral

Julio - a highly recommended guide. We arranged to meet Julio from a cruise ship in Rio. Excellent communication prior to agree arrangements and tour itinerary. Prompt at our meeting point, comfortable car with AC. Julio spoke very good English and was a knowledgeable and friendly guide who adapted the tour to our needs. Nothing was to much trouble. We finished the tour at the airport, which was ideal for our schedule. Thank Julio it was a great day.
