What are people saying about Rio de Janeiro

Anna_M, Apr 2026

It was great to get out...

It was great to get out of the urban and busy part of the city to visit these two outdoor gems. Nobody else signed up for my tour so I got a solo guide! Wagner was very knowledgeable and clearly loves the outdoors, flora and fauna, and these two parks. He was able to guide me to some of the nicest scenes in the gardens and to a lovely waterfall and vista in the park.

Carnaval Experience: Backstage Tour at Samba City with Cocktail

rod_f, Apr 2026

If I could give this six stars, I would

If I could give this six stars, I would. Ines was a friendly and interesting guide on a tour which was both informative and enjoyable. It was great being close to this year's floats, and seeing and trying on some costumes and headdresses. I learned a lot about Carnaval: this experience made me keen to see it for myself one day. Highly recommended.

Carnival Backstage Tour with Antonio

The Backstage Carnival Tour with Antonio was truly a highlight of visiting Rio de Janerio. The tour was better than advertised. Antonio, our tour guide accommodated us in several ways. Coming off the cruise ship, we had our luggage, so instead of walking, our guide hailed a cab, provided a commentary, stayed with us the entire time, took pictures and accompanied us to the airport. Antonio spoke several languages, including English. He was exxtremely helpful, courteous and professional. We gained insight into the history and importance of Carnival, the spectacle, float and costume design, dancers, and more. Getting dressed in Carnival costumes was so much fun, and having a private opportunity to witness Carnival dancers was a nice surprise. This tour with Antonio was great, don't miss it.

Great introduction to Rio de Janeiro

This was a good introduction to Rio de Janeiro. Our guide/driver Benny drove us to all the main sights in the old city. Despite the heavy traffic we were able to visit and experience many different sights, the colourful Selaron steps, Santa Teresa district, Metropolitan Cathedral and the beautiful Moasterio Sao Benito.

Rio: Sunrise at Dona Marta, Christ Redeemer with Tickets

Hardeep_J, Jan 2026

100% worth booking

This was a nice small tour (only 3 of us total) our guide was amazing start to finish. He took us to all the best picture spots and even some secret spots with no crowds so we could enjoy sunrise. He took all of our photos from all the different angles, we didn't even have to ask he got every single shot for us which we are grateful for. Honestly the best experience ever.

Rio de Janeiro Private City Tour: Christ, Sugarloaf & More

Catherine_W, Jan 2026

Exceptional Day in Rio with Karla

We were picked up right at the cruise port by a private driver and our guide, Karla. Communication beforehand was excellent, with very clear instructions about the meeting point. Karla spoke excellent English and was energetic, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about her country. At each stop, the driver dropped us off and Karla guided us personally, sharing a wealth of information, taking photos for us, and making the experience feel very customized. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Carretão, a Brazilian steakhouse, which was a highlight of the day. Karla seemed to know everyone everywhere we went. At both Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer, she greeted the staff warmly and was able to take us straight to the front of the lines, which made a huge difference. It was a fantastic day and a tour I would absolutely recommend—especially with Karla as your guide.

Telegraph Stone Adventure

Robert_H, Jan 2026

Living on the Edge!

This was a physically CHALLENGING experience! If you are not in decent physical shape (great knees, great legs, great lungs), this may not be a tour for you. The hike up the mountain is TOUGH! It is almost an hour long hike on rugged terrain. The Telegraph Stone is at a height of 1161 feet (354 meters). But if you can make it to the top, it is WORTH THE CHALLENGE! The views are breathtaking and the pics are priceless! Mauricio, our tour guide was patient, accommodating and as can be seen, also a GREAT PHOTOGRAPHER, he took my pix shown here, thanks bro. The tour van however is quite OLD and is in poor shape and SHOULD to be replaced. The ride in the van was very uncomfortable. We were all crammed in with little or no leg room. Please please please get a NEW VEHICLE. Would I do this specific tour again? HELL NO as it is very challenging physically plus, unless you're at the telegraph stone at the crack of dawn, you'll have to wait for close to 2 hrs to take your pics as there'll be others ahead of you and some folks in other tour groups are selfish and want to take 50 pics per person! There should be a limit of no more than 10 mins of pic taking per person! Anyway, I am happy I was able to complete the hike and get my pics with that iconic piece of rock! Go for it! You won't be disappointed!

Private Custom Hidden Gems tour: Your Amazing Second Day in Rio!

William_C, Nov 2025

Best Day Tour of Rio de Janeiro

Beth was a phenomenal guide and provided us with the best private tour we have ever had. She was personable, knowledgeable, and very conscious of our safety and well-being at all times. She was beyond helpful in shopping in local markets, providing us with pricing suggestions, and with navigating the buy/sell process in Rio; as it is different from other countries we have visited. Beth was also a skilled photographer and help provide us with photos that we will treasure forever. Can’t recommend Beth Banho enough. Be sure to request her for your guide.

It is a great tour for everyone interested in the fight for sustainability and the future of our planet. We really enjoyed the walk along Olympia boulevard. Yasmin is a great guide, she gave us a really good insight not only for the museums but for Rio and Brazilian culture.

Favela Walking Tour in Rio de Janeiro

laura_d, May 2025

An amazing last minute tour!

Our tour guide, Wellington, was awesome! He gave us amazing information and brought us to some great places to eat, drink, and hang. For anyone visiting, go with an open mind and a willingness to see life through another's eyes. What you'll find is that life is magnificent, fast, and beautiful. You'll meet locals, have time to get food and shop, and get to appreciate the true beauty of life in the Favelas. My husband and I found life there to be its own work of art. And it's a form of art the we personally loved. We had so much fun and would go back again. It was truly captivating and the highlight of our trip. It's going to sound silly, but my favorite part was looking at the electrical wiring, it was just very pretty to me! Ps, best drinks in Rio 🧉🧉🧉they be doing heavy pours Again, I would not recommend you go if you are not open minded or if you are going to be judgemental. You are visiting a place that thousands call home. Be respectful of the people and be appreciative that they've welcomed you into their home. And most importantly- TIP YOUR GUIDES!!!! None of the Europeans on our tour tipped, and that's not cool. They tip in Brazil! Fellow Americans - tip your guides like you'd tip your guides in the states. Don't be cheap! Other advice, wear good walking shoes and be prepared to walk a lot of steps. If you have issues walking I would not recommend going. Also I'd recommend dressing down. I was dressed up and was fine it was more so that my long skirt made walking the steps more difficult.
