What travelers are saying

"Everything organised by Karen at Chimu Went as planned which we were very grateful for. The only drama was the tight scheduling of some of our flights and having to run to get to next gate on time. Latam airline did very well and all our luggage arrived on time . The cruise on OceanEndeavour was truly amazing; the ice, the wildlife and the professional enthusiastic crew made our experience very memorable. Thanks Chimu"

What travelers are saying

"I was scammed by this jacadatravel.com. They have stolen my money 40000USD in the name of investment. They asked me to deposit money at website called www.jacadatravel.com. I have submitted my money 40000USDT in the cryptocurrency. Then later they shifted to a new website called www.jacadatravel.uk. They told me that they have a new platform where I can login my own account. After that they again started asking for money around 28000USDT but I refused to give. Asked them to return my money but they refused to return my money. I tried to contact them on various social networking websites like facebook, Instagram, and Linkedin but they blocked me. On LinkedIn, I contacted Alex Malcolm; he also blocked me immediately. Then customer care at Telegram contacted me saying like Alex Malcolm is Merchant. They refused to return any money. They have opened jacada customer care at Telegram. where they will guide you how to pay and how much we need to pay. I will attach a screenshot of the evidence. In this whole process Alex Malcolm is involved. All the money is with Alex only. Thank you"

What travelers are saying

"Intrepid is very good with itinerary description but reality is not so true. We went to Chile, Argentina and Brazil. Our guides in Rio and Iguazu were the best. The rest were not. Guides in Argentina were the worse. Itineraries promised to us were not followed especially in Argentina. We were on a private tour but we had to rush most of the time in Chile and Argentina because the bus was not available to use beyond a certain time. So it felt like we were on a big group tour even though it was a private small group. We were promised 4 star and above hotels but in some places we got 3 stars that really were 2 stars only. There was mold on our curtains and black bed skirting, dirty toilets. We paid a lot for the trip but don’t think we got what we deserve. Guides in Argentina were very disorganized and they put us in a hotel in the area that was not super safe. There were better neighborhoods they could have places us in. Overall all I give only 3 stars to Intrepid. They did try to upgrade us and compensate with added shows but only after we demanded them. If you are looking for a high end tour experience I would not recommend Intrepid."

Rio De Janeiro Tour Selection Trips

  • Rio is a lot safer than many people think. But be aware of your surroundings, don’t wander into a favela alone, and don’t have a lot of expensive gadgets on display. 
  • Sunset-watching is a popular activity in Rio, so grab a spot along the beach, grab a caipirinha or two, and join in the applause as the sun goes down.
  • Though the favelas are dangerous places for tourists to enter alone, they are a fascinating part of the city. Joining a tour is a safe and easy way to explore this other site to Rio.
  • There are many wonderful viewpoints, where you can take in an outstanding view of the city (Christ the Redeemer, the Sugarloaf, and Dos Hermanos are among the most famous). Be sure to leave as early as possible to beat the heat and the crowds.
  • Be very careful with your belongings on the beach. Don’t bring anything of value, and consider bringing a waterproof pouch so you can keep your money on you at all times. 
  • The summer months (December to February) can be unbearably hot and rainy, so it’s best to travel outside these months. 
  • Be prepared for the price of just about everything to rise steeply during the week of Carnival.
