All Brazil Tours & Excursions in 2026

This was an amazing tour/hike. Eric was the perfect tour guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. He knew a lot of the history and shared it at appropriate stop points. These breaks allowed the varying levels of hikers adjust to the terrain. He was very intentional in that way. I appreciate that level of thoughtfulness. If you want to walk a little, talk a little, and learn a lot, book with Eric. You won't be disappointed. This may be a 2nd submission. I'm not sure if the first submitted.

Be outside your hotel before your pickup time. Our tour started 45 minutes late because several people were late to get out of their hotel. Also be sure your tour guide is aware of you have to depart the group such as for the restroom. We had to wait several times to locate missing guests.

I keep talking about how epic this Favela tour was. My sister and I booked this tour and were lucky to have Daniel as our tour guide. He was outstanding. He gave us a lot of information about the history of the favelas, fun facts about Rio and much more. This was definitely unlike any other experience I’ve done while traveling.

Of all the various experiences, that put me far above the city/beaches/forest, this hang gliding opportunity really was surreal with the view of life in motion. In fact no other picture or angle you get from the other experiences (each great in their own right) will have you truly smiling thinking about how beautiful the city of Rio is. Also the instructors do a great job of explaining the plan, and getting you accustomed to what takeoff, flight, and landing. 10/10 would recommend if you are not afraid of heights

The sites were beautiful. The food was delicious and plentiful. The guide was kind and took good care of us. The only difficulty was understanding her English. Every Viator tour that I have taken has been worth every cent. Thank you and thank you for your flexibility. I originally scheduled our tour on the wrong day when we were not even in RIO. You were so kind to switch it to the correct week. I would recommend Viator and every one of your tours!

Plinio is the Don! What an incredible tour guide, he made us feel like family, funny, informative, he worked 2 extra hours past the time to make sure we see more stuff. Met such incredible people from around the world. Cudnt have asked for a better tour. Thank you!

Beth was absolutely incredible! So knowledgeable and very flexible to build the day with! We definitely felt safe have her with us! We were able to see everything we wanted and more! We were able to start the day off at the Selarón steps and walk around Santa Teresa definitely worth going early for before it gets too crowded, then we went to the cathedral and Lage Park, even though the inside was closed for remodeling the outside is well worth seeing and walking around, we then got a little sweet treat at Rio cafe and headed up to Christ the redeemer. After that we finished off at sugar loaf mountain and ate at a Brazilian Steakhouse. Absolutely worth getting a private tour! Money well spent! Carlos was also an amazing driver! I loved Beth’s personality we meshed very well and like I said earlier the flexibility she had with little changes to what we initially had planned made it all the better! She definitely suggested how to plan to get the most of the day and our money!

The helicopter base was an hour's taxi ride away, and I wasn't expecting that. I should've checked in advance but didn't...so fair warning everyone else! When I got there - just in time - I was asked if I wanted a cold drink or maybe a beer? I opted for the beer (I was on holiday after all and not driving the thing, so why not?). I also opted for the extra video they make of the journey, which is e-mailed to you about 5 days later. So given that I had paid for a VIP flight, and bought the extra video offer, I was a little surprised to also be charged for the beer! And so to the flight itself. Well, it's at that point that you realise that Rio is just like any city anywhere on the planet. It too is subject to the vagaries of the weather. Every day for the last six months, in my mind this one day, this one particular half-hour was bathed in glorious sunshine. But it could be so different. Too cloudy, too wet, too windy, too anything...And today, right now...was none of those things. It was as if I had placed a weather-order with the Redeemer him/her/itself. Rio and the weather working hand-in-hand to deliver my long-held weather expectation. Across that panoramic perfection rode one helicopter and two insignificant passengers who may have been thinking different things about their forthcoming trip, but not that they would soon be silently and reverentially acknowledging the imperial majesty of Nature and Humans to bring us, well...this. A planet we could exist on, the luck that would allow us to develop and live this long, and the vision that would allow one person to say, "I've got this crazy idea. What I want to do is put a statue of Christ - right there...", and the vision that would allow another person to say, "Eh...OK" And they did. Then my wife and I came along. We took some pics. Shot a video or two. Ipanema, Copacabana, Cristo. Minds so exstatically blown. Grateful to everyone for everything. So yeah, it was OK. We'd do it again.
