Favela Cultural Tour - Dona Marta

RTT did an amazing job taking care of our group! Agostino did everything he could to make sure we had an incredible trip. He was flexible with the schedule in order to accommodate our needs. He made sure got the most out of this once in a lifetime experience for many of the students in our group. I would highly recommend using the company for you adventure to Rio.

We took Tour Service for the two couples which lasted all day. We visited Sugarloaf, the Christ, the staircase of Selarom, Sambodromo outside, Maracana also outside. Beautiful tour. Our guide Agustin was splendid. Super friendly and loving. Servicial. He explained a lot about each place. Each time I recommend places to take pictures and tell us small data of each part of the tour. He knows the story well and transmits it with great passion highlighting important facts that marked the moment and what then came next. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed it. We recommend it 100%. The vehicle comfortable and new. Book early and don’t wait at the last minute, you are in demand for good recommendations.

We booked a tour of Rio and arranged to be picked up at the Cruise terminal. We were greeted by Agostinho who was our driver and guide for the day. He spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. He took us to the Selaron Steps, Christ the Redeemer and Cable Car up Sugar Loaf Mountain before dropping us off with our luggage at our hotel in Copacabana. Agostinho had pre-purchased Skip the Line tickets for us which saved us queuing for the main attractions. We had a quality air conditioned Mercedes minibus and cold water was available on the vehicle throughout the day. Agostinho was so relaxing to be with and the day in Rio was the highlight of our holiday in South America. If you need looking after professionally don’t hesitate to use RTT.

Vitor was a good guide. He is very much knowledgeable about all the places we went on this trip. Really enjoyed all of trip

Professionalism and kindness at all times, Agostiño treated us as if we were his family. We hire airport and hotel transfers, city tour of RIO and round-trip transfers to BUZIOS (all private tour for 6 people). At all times he kept us informed of everything we had been seeing, he offered us water during all the trips, he was really super kind. The tour we took was spectacular, super complete. Even though we were with children, it was very bearable. I 100% recommend Agostiño and his company to carry out any type of activity and transfer that is needed since they are super responsible, compliant and offer a service adapted to each family.

This is a long overdue review of Rio Taxi & Transfer. We've gone on 2 city tours with Agostinho, once in 2019 and again in 2021. We also took advantage of the transportation to and from the airport and our hotel. RTT was extremely responsive via email and WhatsApp. The cost of our tours + tranfers were very fairly priced in comparison to other companies, but RTT's customer service was far superior! International payment was very easy and credit card payments made in person had no issue. They accept all major credit cards, even AMEX which was a plus! Every vehicle we rode in was new and well maintained - they even had snacks and beverages on board for us. The drivers stayed with the vehicles at all times and if someone wanted to skip a destination, they had the option to stay and rest on board in the air conditioning. The drivers also assisted with loading and unloading our 20+ pieces of luggage to and from the airport. Agostinho is fluent in English which was extremely important to us when bringing along friends and family from the US who had never visited Brazil. Agostinho was even able to conduct the tour in both Portuguese and English so that all could participate. We kept to our itinerary, but did have the flexibility to extend or reduce the amount of time spent at each stop. Agostinho is extremely knowledgeable, professional, but most of all kind. We thought we were just going on a tour, but ended up befriending an amazing guy! The tours were so relaxed, peaceful, and fun. I can't wait to book our next visit this year!

Incredible experience, 100% recommended. Really enjoy some of the historical explanation of Rio de Janeiro. It is obvious that Agostinho really enjoys what he does and strives to provide excellent service. Rest assured that your trip will be as satisfactory as possible, leaving the tour in Agostinho's hands. Brigade!!

We were planning this trip with my family a long time ago. We travel 9 people with children and teenagers. We decided to hire Agostinho and it was the best decision we could have made!  Beyond being an excellent guide, with much knowledge of the history of each place, I provide us quality and warmth in its accompaniment. Thanks to this Service we could enjoy the city even more!  Very grateful for the experience. Super recommended! Thank you Agostinho

We have been very well served since the acquisition of the package. Augustinho an amazing Cover, polite, very well informed, attentive. After all, Agostinho is more than a tourist guide, he is a history teacher about Rio de Janeiro! We will come back more often!

It was a wonderful experience, I contacted Augustin from Guatemala two days before arriving in Rio and Fabianna helped me in a matter of 2 hours to coordinate airport pickup and day tour transfer. We arrived at 7am in Rio and when we left they were already waiting for us. Super recommended and leave a charger in the vehicle that I spend leaving Augustin to the hotel... highly valued.... They were our first contact with Rio and without a doubt the best, they make you feel at home and in family.
