帝国博物館とオプションのランチとボヘミア醸造所を備えたペトロポリス シティ ツアー

The tour was great, the guide wonderful, I just found the food bad.

A great day! Lots of good information about the Portuguese royal family. A great lunch. Our guide was excellent - he took really good care of us

The guide Quintino, very professional. Excellent tour! Totally recommended.

First, let me say that the guide was very good and very kind, plus, an excellent linguist. The negative sides of this tour do not have anything to do with him, he did a great job. However, the tour itself is poorly designed. We got picked up from our hotel at 7:20, and spent around 2 hours picking other passengers up, we only left Rio at 9:15. And we weren't event the first passengers being picked up! That is absolutely unacceptable. Picking some passengers up is a common thing, but spending two hours doing so, when the trip to Petropolis itself only lasts 1h15, it makes no sense whatsoever. The tour was not the one that we booked, we had booked one which featured a visit to a brewery with beer tasting, that was replaced by a mandatory chocolate shop stop, where you have to sit and order / buy chocolate to go and none of it is included in the price. We were not hungry nor did we want to buy chocolate as it was a hot day and we weren't sure it would travel well. Therefore, we had to wait outside until everyone was done, as we weren't given a time to regroup. The tour also included 40 min of 'free time' in Rua Tereza, which was not specified in the itinerary of the tour that we had booked. It was rather pointless, we were left a good 15 min walk away from Rua Tereza, so only had about 5 min there, but regardless, it was just a street filled with standard clothes shops. No souvenir shops and almost no cafes. The visit of the palace itself was very good and very interesting, however, we had booked a tour in English, but it was actually multilingual, so the explanations had to be repeated in English, Spanish and Portuguese every time. Again, the guide was fantastic, but it just isn't a very efficient way to lead a tour like this one. Monolingual tours would make more sense and also avoid having to wait for two hours during pick up and drop off.

The logistics were excellent from the reservation to the start of the tour. Julio, the guide, is fantastic; he is a very unique man, and when it comes to storytelling, he is charismatic, respectful, and helpful. In short, the tour is worth it 100%.

Our guide Marlady is an excellent guide; I felt very comfortable with everything you explained and your personal treatment, thank you.

The tour to Petropolis with guide Marlady and driver Gege was excellent and interesting. We returned to our country happy. Thank you very much☺️

Happy birthday to Julio. Ok, so places of interest were wonderful and guide was keen to take pictures for me because I think he felt sorry for me as a solo traveller thrown on a tour with a whole lot of Spanish and Portugeuse travellers. I won't lie I was very disappointed with this trip. I paid a small fortune to do this trip with an English group and with an English guide but instead was thrown on a day tour with Spanish/Portugeuse speaking people when I specifically booked for the English tour. It was so overwhelming having my guide constantly having to translate for me so I eventually told him I do not want any more translating, I will figure out what he is saying on my own. It became one of those tours where you wish you had never booked for. The food at the buffet was also aweful and actually made me rather ill. I would not suggest this tour agency if you are English and cannot speak Spanish/Portugeuse. Very upset with this trip and the other guests were rude and disrespectful towards me. I know I can't understand their language but by their universal facial expressions and gestures, I knew exactly what they were saying. I actually was very upset not getting the memories I wanted. Just pure negativity. If I wanted to do this trip on my own, I could've done so . I wish the company told me that I would be on a tour that was in another language. Not how I wanted to explore the Imperial City.

You get what you pay for, for the dollars and what you get , it's a good deal. Will it blow your mind , probably not, maybe it depends on more on who or your group will be, mine, they would stampede if they could, but overall, good.

Je-je and Mar (driver and tour guide, respectively) were outstanding in their service and the quality of treatment of all us customers. Punctal on departure, informative through the bus ride, and helpful when something was requested. Upon arrival to the imperial museum, the wealth of knowledge of our guide was evident. Plus she was doing three languages: English, Spanish, and of course, Portuguese. Lunch was very good, and the Bohemia beer part of the tour capped off a good day. Upon returning, we slept all the way back to Rio.
