The tour offered a variety of activities from the outrageous lifestyle of Lapa, the shady but inspiring stories of the Favela, the beach vibes of Rio, the amazing Carnaval. The Hotel accommodation was good; walkable distance to restaurants. We found a place that serves great Açai, and Flan! Some activities though are tiring especially on a hot humid day of February like the walk from the hotel to the Metro, and to the Marina or from the Metro to the Ipanema rock for sunset. The group was wondering how the company could not just have a Van to haul everybody back and forth to locations? We ended up using Uber on our own half the time. The face painting by an “artist” needs time-management. There were more than 20 in our group and the so called “artist” spends 30-45 min on one or two or three people with elaborate colors, talks in-between task, and poses for photos. So of course when he was pressed for time he can only do minimal “painting” on the rests of the group — like he did mine for 5 minutes. Can’t help but feel cheated. I think there should be a time limit for each person so others can be equally accommodated and not rushed. Some activities are too closed in-between that there is hardly any time to rest and eat. Not a deal breaker but just so you can be prepared. Bring/buy an umbrella, a hat, lots of sun block; buy the Fan that makes sound—- you can party with it, and it doubles up as a shade against the harsh sun. The sunset boat tour offered a great view of Rio’s marina/coastline; the blockos are fun but be aware that the crowd can be rowdy and explicit— It was short of an orgy we thought it made Vegas looks like childplay. Over all, we are glad we came and joined on this tour by Bamba Travel. We rate the team leader/tour owner Jorge, as Excellent. Jorge really made efforts to communicate, to greet every one, to assist every one, and even offered assistance post-tour. There were plenty of his Staff all around us, love that there is always someone who will walk with any one of us who decide to go back to the Hotel earlier at night. Jorge, and his Staff were organized, made us feel safe and connected. We would recommend this tour just because of Jeorge :)Show more

We had a very nice time at the San Blas island of Yanis. It's a small paradise! Plenty of time to relax. Why not 5 stars? Small things, like the chaos at the waterfront when you need to be directed to the correct boat and there might be some more activities posible on the island, for example as simple as a football (as you don't bring that your self). In the tour description was a sunken gunboat, but as nobody was able answer our question in English and I can't talk Spanish, we where not able to find it. I think that language has been a barrier for us as for example the optional visit to Kuna Yala Village was never offered of mentioned to us. The description of the trip mentions a 4x4 jungle drive. To set the right expectations: the route does indeed pass through the jungle, but it follows a well-paved road, so it wasn't quite the experience we had anticipated. This feedback is to improve evenmore as the overal trip was just amazing! I loved every minute of it and if you are doubting.... don't. Just go!Show more
