Our guide Wagner was absolutely brilliant with English language and the local knowledge. We had a fabulous time including the kids.
We had an interesting day with Rafael. We did see the highlights of Rio, and the van and driver were always there to transport us. However,there were a few things that we were surprised with. We said that we wanted to go to a restaurant for lunch. Rafael had already booked the venue. However, it was VERY expensive. We feel that we should have been asked how much we wanted to spend before entering the restaurant. The food was good, but at 130 a couple for lunch the price was steep. Our guide should also be advised to improve his personal grooming - clean clothes are appropriate.
Excellent day with excellent guide and driver
