Full Day Custom Private Tour in Rio (8h)

Today’s (November 11) Rio de Janeiro city tour was the highlight of our extended trip through these three beautiful and important Latin American countries. Our tour guide Christian showed us breathtaking views and we were able to take postcard-like photos of Rio de Janeiro. Christian enriched our knowledge of the history, culture, architecture, traditions, and modern life in Rio, its people and its events and ceremonies. Christian is a tireless story teller. He presents facts, explanations, and gives examples for better understanding. He does it with great respect to every member of the group. His phenomenal language skills in Portuguese, Spanish, and English allowed him to communicate well with all of us. His clear voice, excellent pronunciation, ability to speak fluently, and quickly switch from one language to another make him an outstanding professional. His informative and educational stories kept our interest during the entire 7-hour tour. Christian is a wonderful organizer. He organized fast pick ups from three hotels and made stress-free rearrangements for the group to everybody’s satisfaction. He has outstanding communication skills, is fully equipped with necessary contact information to reach all the agencies and the right people to handle different situations. It allowed him to help group members use their valuable and limited tourist time in the most efficient manner. Cristian’s soft calming manner, well-paced speech, and willingness to answer questions made the hours fly by quickly and enabled us to enjoy every minute of the tour. The friendly atmosphere Christian created in our group helped us to learn about himself, his hobbies, his passion to cook, and his dreams and desires. We all wish him great success and may all his dreams come true. We owe special thanks to Vital, our driver. Vital was totally dedicated to driving safely. We admired his driving skills on the busy, often narrow streets, navigating between cars, vans, and pedestrians. His van is pristinely clean, comfortably air conditioned, and equipped with a high quality audio system. There was no texting or phone conversations on his part. Observing and reacting in a timely fashion to the road situation allowed us to proceed safely and according to schedule. Vital loves showing tourists his beautiful city. It was very pleasant to spend a day with two very nice men in the wonderful city of Rio de Janeiro.
