We will be arriving in Rio 3 days in advance of boarding the Navigator on 12/4 and would like to hire a private guide for seeing the sights. The above post is over 3 years old so would anyone have more current advice for a guide? We're also considering staying at the Intercontinental but, while it sounds lovely, it's not downtown. Is not staying downtown a mistake?
Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts with us.
