Privat heldag Rio de Janeiro City Tour: Corcovado & Sugarloaf

We had a truly unforgettable day in Rio thanks to Monica. From the very beginning, she made us feel completely at ease, as if we were spending the day with a longtime friend. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and at the same time very kind and approachable. We even decided to change our plans during the day, and Monica was incredibly flexible and accommodating, adapting everything quickly to meet our wishes. Her passion for what she does really shines through and made the whole experience even more special. We highly recommend her to anyone who wants to explore Rio in an authentic, relaxed, and well-organized way. Thank you again, Monica — we really hope to see you again soon!

Rio is such a great city, and having a private guide with a car was entirely worth it because there is so much to see, and so many ways to get lost, or lose your money. Marcos was a great guide. It was clear he was experienced. We had our 2 year old with us which slowed things down a little bit, and Marcos was accommodating and kind the entire time. His knowledge of the area was easy to see and we enjoyed his friendly demeanor. He ran into people around town which was nice to see. It was summer, so of course it as hot. I can imagine getting on and off a crowded tour bus 4-5 times at each location would get annoying. Again, the private guide was entirely worth the money and we would do it again if given the chance, and have in other cities, also through Expedia or Viator. Thanks again to Marcos Leal and Rio Carioca Tour, we had a great time all the way from San Francisco, CA.

Monica is a punctual, knowledgeable, helpful and absolutely recommended guide. We organized a personalized tour for 10 people inside Rio de Janeiro, absolutely appreciated by all the Participants. TOUR AND GUIDE ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED! Well done Monica, good work and see you soon! Federico Key4U

This is definitely the way to do a tour of rio if you have short amount of time. Very nice that it’s private you don’t have to wait on people. Our tour guide Dario was amazing, he definitely made this a highlight of our trip!

Rio is a wonderful city. And exploring it with someone who knows it and knows how to tell it is even better. We decided to take a tour with a guide and we got the best Monica Bertazzolo! We started the day visiting Christ the Redeemer, which by the way managed to make the fog go away for a while and took some beautiful photos of us. Our second stop was at the Cathedral where we were surprised by the natural light caused by its original stained glass windows. On the way we enjoyed a curved track, cobblestones and the landscape of the Santa Teresa neighborhood. We made our next stop at the Selarom steps, where he showed us a selection of mosaics from our countries of origin, Argentina and Italy. We even hummed a tango together. The afternoon found us at Sugar Loaf, there we enjoyed the best views of Rio. We learned and got to know the emblematic places of this beautiful city with a beautiful tourist guide Monica Bertazzolo. I just have to say Thank you Moni! It wouldn't have been the same without you!

We did the tour with Monica who was very competent and above all helpful. Highly recommended if you want to do a complete tour of the city.

We loved our tour with Monica! She was very knowledgeable and showed us some great sights. It was so helpful to have an expert taking us around the city. Lunch was delicious too.

We left for our honeymoon to discover Rio de Janeiro .. a little disconcerted by the trip and the time zone, but still intrigued by this city of a thousand colors. For our tour we were accompanied by Ms Monica, very prepared on everything from architecture to history .... very kind and helpful, organized impeccably and on time on the move for each visit, flanked by a driver (Alex) efficient and friendly... what can I say! A fantastic day in Rio... we recommend this tour to all those who are discovering the real Rio. Thanks Monica for giving us memories, unforgettable.

Monica was punctual, friendly, knowledgeable and flexible. Her full-day tour with driver was time well spent. She offered different options and provided valuable advice both during and after the tour. We certainly recommend her.

Thank you my God for this opportunity of life, my gratitude to you my God today, tomorrow and always, Thanks to our tour guide Monica, who made me feel like home, I interpret my language, which makes it easy for me to feel super good on my tours. Dare to the great adventure, don't leave it to another day, schedule yourself and your dreams will come true,
