Jaqueline una genia, se nota que esto le gusta y aporta más de un 110 % al tour. A pesar del clima que nos tocó sus conocimientos de la historia de Rio son enriquecedores. Translate this opinion into English.

Quand on sait que le 31/12, c est compliqué à Rio, on ne vend pas d excursion. Démarrage avec 1h de retard, 50% des lieux à visiter fermés…. On a même visité un hôtel et un resto pour combler. Le guide semblait lui même gêné . Très déçus

When you know that on 12/31 it is complicated in Rio, no tours are sold. We started 1 hour late, 50% of the places to visit were closed... We even visited a hotel and a restaurant to fill the gap. The guide seemed embarrassed himself. Very disappointed.

J’ai adoré visiter le vieux Rio la 1re partie de la visite était magnifique. Rendu a Santa Theresa le rythme avait changé complètement une visite shopping sans anecdote ni d’historique sur cette partie de la ville. Pour la logistique 30 minutes de retard a l’arrivée et a la fin l’auto était brisée ils ont appelé Uber pour le retour à l’hôtel. Pour les visites en français après deux expériences a Rio, 3/4 visite se fait dans une autre langue a l’occasion ont vous fait un petit résumé !

I loved visiting old Rio, the first part of the tour was magnificent. Upon reaching Santa Teresa, the pace changed completely, it was a shopping visit with no anecdotes or history about this part of the city. As for logistics, there was a 30-minute delay upon arrival and at the end the car was broken, they called Uber for the return to the hotel. For tours in French, after two experiences in Rio, 3/4 of the tour is done in another language and occasionally they give you a brief summary!

L'activité se réalise avec un guide qui parle français, bien qu'il soit possible que le service soit parfois bilingue. Nos guides sont des professionnels qui s'efforcent de transmettre le contenu du circuit de la manière la plus rigoureuse et dynamique possible. Nous sommes désolés que, dans ce cas, cela n'ait pas été comme vous l'espériez.

I loved exploring the historical centre of Rio - gives a great idea how impressive Rio must have been back in the day: impressive architectural styles, the buildings dedicated to the arts (I.e. Teatro municipal, art collections, etc.) and countless churches.

Visita interessante anche se la guida poteva dirci un po’ più cose di quello che vedevamo, il fatto di dover parlare in tre lingue fa perdere molto tempo

Interesting visit although the guide could have told us a bit more about what we were seeing, the fact that we had to speak in three languages wastes a lot of time

Ci dispiace che qualche aspetto del servizio non sia stato di vostro gradimento. Apprezziamo e prendiamo nota dei vostri commenti per continuare a migliorare dove possibile.
