Complete waste of time and money. The guide spent the whole time on his phone and chatting with other people and looking for new customers. I don’t recommend it at all.
I booked the 4 hour private tour. Riccardo was a great guide! He communicated the day before and I informed him of the places I wanted to visit which included Centro and Maracana. He picked me up from my hotel right on time. Due to rainy Rio, I didn’t have an umbrella or raincoat but Riccardo offered me his umbrella to use throughout the tour. We were able to check off just about everything I wanted to see throughout the city. Some places were closed due to being the weekend. He also took great pictures of me at all the sites! I highly recommend Riccardo as a guide and this tour!
This is absolutely the worst tour that we have ever been on - firstly the tour guide was over half an hour late to meet us at the appointed location, then he started to look for the no show driver , that took another 45 minutes ( despite repeated calls to the tour office). We were finally on our way, to do a walking tour of part of the city where the Royal bbc Palace is located . After that we went to visit ( by car) a famous coffeehouse to have a snack . 30 minutes late we came out to find the driver has disappeared . Calls to the office ( and more waiting by the curb )and after 45 minutes the driver showed up again and took us to the Selaron Steps for a five minute photo opportunity , after which the guide declared that the tour was up and took us back to our cruiseship pier . We never saw the sights that we wanted to ( no Copacabana beach, no Ipanema beach ). Even the guide said he has never encountered such ridiculous service from the tour company - never again ( it wasted the entire day that we planned for Rio 😭🤢).
Marcos was a wonderful tour guide. Our private tour was tailored to our interests with a couple of other things added in. Luckily for us, his English was very good. We had a great day and are very grateful to Marcos for showing us this beautiful city of Rio de Janeiro!
Dario was fantastic! He guided us through the city and made sure to take us to all the places we wanted to see. He even took us to to some restaurants that we were not planning to go before he recommended them. Incredible way to experience Rio!
We had absolutely unforgettable experience. Excellent vehicle, perfect driver and exceptional tour guide - all we could wish for! We only had two days in Rio and were looking for the best way to get to know more about history, culture and life in this big city. Helber showed us everything he loves about Rio and we had amazing time. Highly recommend.

Well it was a site seeing tour so I saw everything I wanted to see but when I told Any that my most cherish wish was to take beautiful pictures. So she took me to places I am sure nobody will se in Rio and I have some great pictures. Then I ask to have a typical Brazilian meal for lunch with wine. She took me to a very nice restaurant and I invited Thales and Any to have lunch with me (MY TREAT) We had so much fun and I learned a lot about Brazilian culture. Thales did not drink wine because he is not aloud to but still was very entertaining. Afterwards, he took me to the airport on time. It was a lovely, lovely day. Thank you so much.
