wonderful experience - Sunday in Rio. It was a very peaceful and well-organized day. Flávia picked us up promptly at 7 am. We went to Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Selaron Palace, the cathedral, and had a wonderful lunch at a churrascaria (Brazilian steakhouse) with a pleasant and cozy atmosphere. We finished with the beautiful nature of the Tijuca Forest. My family and I are happy with our day in Rio. Thank you, Flávia, we hope to see you again soon!

Best Private Tour in Rio!!! - We had the absolute best day exploring Rio! Jessica was incredible—knowledgeable, warm, and so thoughtful—and our driver, Rômulo, was fantastic as well. Five stars to both of them.
We visited Christ the Redeemer, Santa Teresa, and the Selarón Steps, and every stop was seamless and memorable. Jessica also recommended an amazing restaurant for lunch with breathtaking views—truly one of the highlights of the day.
This private guided tour was perfect for our family. Our kids had such a great time too, which made the experience even more special. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of us and for showing us the beauty of Rio. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Изключително преживяване - We were in Rio de Janeiro during Carnival and took a long trip through South America only now have I been able to stop relax and review everything about our long 31-day trip where our main goal was to see one of the 7 wonders of the world the Christ.
I need to thank our tour guide Flavia very much, who shared a lot of knowledge and suggestions with us. She was very patient the whole time taking photos and even gave us a lot of flexibility with the schedules, which made us much happier and more comfortable.
If you go to Rio de Janeiro, I highly recommend going with guide Flavia, she is very kind and polite, and the driver who accompanied us was also very nice guy. Thank you to the whole team.
I recommend them 10/10.

Magnificent Sights in Rio - Fernando took us to Sugarloaf and Christ the Redeemer. It was a weekend and so there were large crowds. Instead of continuing the tour we asked him to take us to a good licsl restaurant. We all enjoyed typical Brazilian food. It was a great day.
