An Unforgettable Day in Rio with Renata!

I had an absolute blast on my photo tour with Renata! She is truly amazing—not only is she an extraordinarily skilled photographer, but her knowledge of the local sites added so much depth to the experience. Highly professional and deeply patient, Renata instantly made me feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease throughout the day. That peace of mind allowed me to fully relax and enjoy every moment, making my time in Rio genuinely perfect and happy. To top it all off, the photos turned out stunning. I couldn't have asked for a better guide or photographer!

I cannot recommend this tour enough. Renata picked us up from our hotel and the whole day was well organized, even when the rain caused some hurdles. We never felt rushed and the pictures are beautiful!

Rio, Shot like a Movie

My Rio tour was unforgettable thanks to my incredible tour guide and photographer. Renata was extremely knowledgeable about the city and knew the ins and outs. I appreciated her driving me around to different places to make sure I had the best experience possible. She also took professional photos and clearly knew the right angles, locations, and timing to capture great shots. I would definitely recommend her to anyone visiting Rio who wants a great tour and high-quality photos.

The absolute best experience!

I had the pleasure of spending some time in Rio de Janeiro with Renata, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was always punctual, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took me to the best spots for photos, delicious local food, and great shopping, making sure I experienced the very best of Rio. The first tour was so good that I booked a second day with her. Not only did she capture amazing photos and videos that I’ll treasure forever, but she was also an absolute joy to spend time with. Her warm personality and attention to detail made my trip so much more enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting Rio, you’ll be in excellent hands!

Hiring Renata made my Rio trip 10x better

Five stars is honestly not enough to rate Renata. I was a solo traveler visiting Rio for the first time, and hiring Renata was the BEST decision. She took fantastic photos, and knows so many interesting facts and histories of all the sights. She also knows the hidden gems, the good food spots, and the best angles for photos. Professional, smooth communication, and always good vibes. Obrigado Renata!

An Amazing Rio Experience

Renata is the best tour photographer we've had. She is very knowledgable about Rio and its surrounding areas. She picked us up from our hotel and took us on an amazing 8 hour tour of Christ the Redeemer, Dona Marta Lookout, Sugarloaf Mountain and Selarón Steps. She took unbelievable photos of us at each stop and explained in English the history behind each sight. It was so good that we booked 2 other tours with her during our stay. Make sure to book her on this tour. You won't regret it.

A must, when in Rio...

I have the feeling that hiring this service was one of the best calls I could have when visiting Rio. First, the guide really know the best places to take the photos, and how to access them in feasible time. Not only she will guide you for the spots, but she will also offer when there is a possibility to skip the lane in some attractions. Secondly, she is super friendly and has a sense of humor that just lights your day. The price is right for the service that is offered, but you can always select packages that are more suitable for your touristic profile. This service is a MUST to properly enjoy Rio ;)
