    Great city tour - I joined the English group and our guide Lorena was fantastic, sharing lots of interesting information about Rio's history. I was careless and took longer taking photographs at the Selaron Stairs and lost my group..... but I was able to join the Spanish speaking group led by the wonderful Fernanda and continue the tour (with my basic Spanish I could understand around 50% of the information). I felt safe with my guides and really enjoyed the historical city centre walk.
