“The trip and the guide was good with a visit to the brewery as well. The only downside to the trip was the vehicle used was not braziling. Every time we stopped all the quests had to enter from the offside which is dangerous. The guide went the extra mile to answer all questions.”

“Do not go on this tour, if you are requesting a English guide. At this point I don’t recommend the company for any tours. They don’t speak English as requested for those passengers and they overbooked their tours. I was in a van with every seat jam packed and COVID is rampant in that area.…”

“Our guide was great. Got to see all the important parts of Petropolis. However, the bus driver was unsafe. He was regularly looking at his phone while driving, checking WhatsApp and leaving messages. At one point he was looking at photos on another persons phone while driving at speed in merging traffic, and nearly crashed.”

“Liked Imperial Palace visit and Santos Dumont House (optional). Crystal Palace was a dull and I didn't like a 30 minute stop at a motorway café or long visit to chocolate shop. Fixing pick up place was really bad. Place and time were changed but the guide wasn't told... Guide remained very calm with people…”
