A good way to get an overview of the city if you are short of time. It was mainly driving around with a few stops

A Wonderful 4 Hours

My only regret is that I didn’t book the trip earlier. The excursion was well-paced and my guide was very informative. I had time at each place to explore a little on my own. It really was a wonderful day touring Brasilia.

Auto visit to Brasília

I explain the reason, because I went alone, walking without paying admission and completely free. I went to run a half marathon and walking in the vicinity of the start a day earlier I realized I could visit those same places for free and walking. They are not far away, the environment is very safe but in summer there is a lot of sun. In 1 day everything is traversed Do it if you can. Depending on the hotel that is close to everything.

Unreliable operator, but good guide.

I must make a distinction between the organiser and the guide/driver. The guide (Michael) was very nice, courteous and helpful. This was in the afternoon, although we had booked a morning tour. In the morning, the organiser (Mesquita Turismo) only informed us 35 minutes AFTER the starting time of the tour that he could not do it. This meant we had to change our plans.

Excellent tour

Guide Joel excellent. We did a private tour in Brasília and it was all very good. We visited all the key points of the capital, where we were provided with every detail. I recommend everyone to visit Brasilia.

A well-designed tour

We got an excellent overview of Brasilia. Our guide was friendly and helpful and reasonably if not deeply knowledgeable. I gave 4 stars because I could see how this could be even better but 4.5 stars would be fairer
