Prior to the tour, we had contact with our guide (Daniel) and the pickup at our meeting and pickup at the hotel was terrific. Daniel was a truly knowledgeable guide concerning Rio and its culture. We made a number of stops and each time Daniel gave us useful information concerning the stop and what we were seeing, and the stories and history behind it. Being a Sunday, some of the stops were crowded but that made the stop even more fun because we were able to experience what life in Rio was like. Daniel was a tremendous guide, and we genuinely enjoyed our time with him. At the end of our tour, he gave us some restaurant suggestions by our hotel, and his suggestions were wonderful. Daniel, thank you for a wonderful tour and helping to make our stay in Rio more enjoyable.
