“There were no signs indicating “Skip the line” queue and no one to guide you either. Wasted lot of time queuing up in different lines asking people what they were queuing up for. On the way back, there is no separate line either for coming back. Not sure if it’s worth paying extra for Skip the Line.”

“My partner and I did the full day tour and it was absolutely amazing. In the morning, we visited Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf mountain, both sites had gorgeous views of Rio. After a very delicious lunch at a Brazilian steakhouse, we spent the afternoon exploring downtown Rio, highlight was visiting the colourful Escadaria Selarón. Our guide, Meilin, made the experience that much more special with her extensive knowledge of Rio’s history. Highly recommend this tour!”
