Review of Rio’s 9-hour VIP tour with Christ the Redeemer train, Sugarloaf cable car, Selarón Steps, cathedral, and rodízio lunch.

“An excellent way to visit the key sights in Rio. Lots of time both at top of Sugar Loaf and at Christ the Redeemer with our excellent guide Aldo. Lunch was superb - a huge and varied salad bar plus endless portions of meat brought to the table. Small group and very friendly.”
