Rio Captured Beautifully by Rio Photo Guide

We had an amazing experience with Rio Photo Guide in Brazil! Renata, our guide and photographer, was fantastic—professional, friendly, and incredibly skilled.She took us to Rio’s top attractions, including Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Maracanã, Escadaria Selarón, the Botanical Garden of Rio, the Metropolitan Cathedral of Rio de Janeiro, Copacabana Beach, and Ipanema Beach, capturing credible, high-quality photos throughout the three days.Each location offered stunning backdrops, and Renata knew exactly how to capture the best angles and moments. Not only did we get to explore the beauty and culture of Rio, but we also came away with beautiful photos that truly captured the spirit of our trip. Renata made the experience personal, fun, and stress-free from start to finish. We highly recommend Rio Photo Guide to anyone visiting Rio—whether you're a photography lover or simply want unforgettable memories captured by a professional!

Perfect

Everything about Renata was perfect. From the prompt pick up to the comfortable ride and guide to the way Renata tried to ensure the pics we had were just of the 2 of us, even though we were in Rio at the busiest time of year, carnival. I would recommend Renata to anyone that wants a nice easy way to make memories without thw hassle.of asking a stranger everywhere you go.

Amazing Tour and Amazing Photos!

There are not enough stars for the all day tour with Renata, especially if you want amazing photos of Rio. Bring your walking shoes and listen to your guide and you will accomplish/learn more in one day than you ever could by yourself. Renata is knowledgeable, charming, and eager to make sure you have an amazing time in Rio. Renata agreed to meet with us on short notice, and met us bright and early right outside where we were staying. Too many good things to list. Just take the tour and be glad you did!

Excellent experience. Highly recommended!

I am entirely satisfied with our 8-hr guided photography tour with Renata, Rio Photo Guide. She was excellent! My friend and I had a fantastic time, it was very well organized, easy to arrange, we felt safe at all times (a priority of hers), and she knew all of the great spots. We had a wonderful time seeing Christ the Redeemer before the lines got out of control, other memorable viewpoints like Dona Marta, Santa Teresa, etc. I would highly recommend Renata. I think it was a terrific value and I have no suggestions for improvement. Comfortable car, very pleasant personality, and excellent photos taken of my friend and I. Thank you!
