Look no further, book your private tour with Faby now! - So glad we picked Faby for our private Rio tour! She picked us up on time from our hotel and took us to all the sights we had asked to see. Faby knew how best to navigate the crowds at popular spots like Cristo, Sugarloaf and the Selaron Steps, and where to take the best pictures. She was extremely enthusiastic and knowledgeable, answering all of our many questions not only about the sights but also about life in Rio and Brazil. She brought us to an amazing and beautiful restaurant in Centro for lunch which was full of locals, where we were the only tourists. Our driver Felipe was fantastic as well. This was one of the best private tours we've taken anywhere in the world. I give Faby my highest recommendation! Tip: we booked directly through her website instead of through a third party platform.

The BEST tour guide in Rio -Faby! - Absolutely FABY-lous! The Best Guide in Rio We had the incredible luck of meeting Faby during our stay in Rio de Janeiro, and from the moment we met her, we never wanted to let her go! We originally booked her for one day through the Marriott.com site for our hotel—but after just a few hours, we knew we needed her for our entire trip. Since we only had four days in Rio, we had Fabi and her wonderful driver Renato pick us up directly from the airport. Before even checking into our hotel, we were already off on a full-day adventure! That first day was so magical and seamless that we immediately asked Fabi to stay with us for the rest of our stay. Faby was more than a guide—she truly became like family. Her knowledge, warmth, humor, and attention to every detail made our experience unforgettable. With Faby, we visited Corcovado, Sugarloaf, Maracanã with the goal game and we missed the Pele exhibit as it closed early so Faby picked us up the next day to surprise my husband with a return to the stadium, the famous Selarón steps (where she cleverly helped us avoid the long photo lines and took us to an even better photo spot), the “Harry Potter” library and the stunning Tijuca Rainforest. She even persuaded a caretaker to let us tour a historic old house by a waterfall, after my husband expressed a deep interest to see inside, that was no longer open to the public—an experience we never could have had without her. And so much more! She brought us to top-notch local restaurants, a Carnival school, a beautiful church—and as a deeply thoughtful surprise for me, she arranged a private tour of the oldest synagogue in Rio, just for us, despite it being closed. That moment meant the world to me. Faby loves what she does, and it shows in everything she does. She gave us the gift of Rio through her eyes and extreme knowledge—with heart, humor, and unmatched insider knowledge. We left with memories we’ll treasure forever, and a friend we’ll always cherish. We love you, Faby! You are truly FABIlous! — The Márquez Family

The best way to discover Rio! - We were lucky to have Faby as our guide and we couldn’t have fallen into better hands. Cheerful, fun and with an incredible knowledge of Rio and the whole history of Brazil, it made the tour much more than seeing beautiful places: it was a real adventure. You can see that he has been working as a guide for years, but still maintains the energy and passion of the first day. It made us feel comfortable from minute one, it showed us corners that do not appear in the guides, and always with a smile and a thousand interesting anecdotes. If you want to know Rio as a real traveler and not just another tourist, you can not miss it. A guide to 10!

Excellent private tour covering all sightseeing in Rio! - Excellent private tour! We were in our honeymoon and we got down from a cruise for 6 hour in Rio, so this tour make worth every minute of it. Higor was an amazing guide, he has a lot knowledge of the city, such a kind person, he also took us very good pictures. He made our tour exactly as we want it, to cover all the sightseeing. He also took us to some local business to try local food. The best pan de queso. Thanks for everything Higor and his good driver! 🫶🏼

Best tour in Rio de Janeiro - It was the best tour we've ever done. Everything was superbly organized; we saw all of Rio de Janeiro in one day. Our tour guide, Fabiana, was very friendly and professional; we learned a lot about Rio. We would recommend this tour to anyone and book it again anytime.

Wonderful day with Alex and Jorge - We took this tour, which was on Ash Wednesday, after Carnaval 2025. Alex was our guide and did a wonderful job with just enough historic information to make it interesting, as well as providing current information on Rio and the sights. Jorge was an excellent driver who made the day very easy and safe. This was definitely the best way to see these sights.

Faby and the private tour are the way to go! - Faby was awesome and knew all of the "tricks" to avoid the long queues and make the best use of my time without the tour feeling rushed. She was extremely personable and knowledgeable and provided just enough history and background on each location that we visited. I would highly recommend Faby and this private tour!
