Best tour guide - My wife and I did a tour with Camila 3 years ago and it was so good that we brought our children back. Camila is comprehensive covering all the historical information and so much fun. Highly recommended

Camila and Renato were Exceptional!!! - This was our first time in Rio. It has been a dream come true to come here and experience the people and culture and sights and sounds and tastes of Rio. Camilla was very accommodating. We told her our top priorities of what we wanted to see and experience. She made sure we got to each place at the best time and Renato made sure we got there safely with his excellent driving skills. Camilla is a wealth of knowledge and was able to answer all of our questions in beautiful English. She helped us gain appreciation for the culture and significance and beauty of each site as she shared her stories and knowledge with us. Everywhere we went people knew her and were kind and generous to us because we were with Camilla. She got us in and out of places quickly without being rushed. We feel we truly experienced life in Rio ancient up to present day. We saw much more than we anticipated and felt safe and protected throughout our entire experience. We will recommend Camilla and Renato to everyone we know. It was a magical day in Rio. Thanks for your kindness and love in showing us your beautiful City, people, and foods!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gregtour & Camila - Gregtour Tourism is an amazing tour company and I highly recommend Camila as a tour guide. My friends and I did the Rio Day tour and it was better than expected. Camila and our driver knew exactly what time was best for each and every site and their expertise helped us understand and Embrace the Rio-Brazilian culture. Camila and Gregtour company listened to our wants and expertly incorporated the timing to allow my friends and I to truly enjoy our tour. Our tour was only yesterday and my friends and I recommended Gregtour Company and Camila to several friends and family that will travel to Rio in the next few weeks!

The perfect day!! - FANTASTIC day. We got to see all the highlights in a relaxed without ever feeling rushed. We love private tours cause you have the flexibility to stay at any place for as long as or as little as you like. We got to see Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, Sugarloaf mountain and Christ the Redeemer and other highlights throughout the city including the Cathedral. Worth every penny and we recommend it highly. The perfect day

Rio Highlights in a Single Day - Our guide, Vitor picked us up at the cruise port exactly when he promised, then took us on a really comprehensive tour of Rio de Janeiro. We were able to see Maracana Stadium, Sugarloaf Mountain (separate fee), Christ the Redeemer (separate fee), Copacabana, Ipanema, and historical sites dating to Portuguese colonial times and afterward. As a history buff, I was impressed with Vitor’s knowledge of Brazilian history, including the long-lasting impact of Pedro II. We stopped for local treats like açaí bowls and juice from cashew fruit, which we had never had. We ended the day with dinner (meal not included) at an authentic Brazilian steakhouse, before we were dropped off at the airport for our flight home. Great experience, and highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the “must see” sites and also learn about Brazilian history and culture.

Excellent experience - We did this private tour (two people, two separate days) and had a phenomenal experience. Everyone was very professional, communication was quick, the pick ups/drops were flawless, and it was truly a custom experience based on what we wanted to do/see. We had two different guides for each of the days, and while they had very different personalities both were excellent and we would do another tour with each of them. Hard to imagine it being a better experience -- highly recommend Gregtur for a private tour of Rio!

Private Rio - Fantastic day out in Rio with Newton. The tour was quite flexible - you basically decide the day’s itinerary when you hop in the guide’s car, so come prepared. We visited Cristo Redemptor, Santa Teresa, the old Centro, and more. The Santa Teresa neighborhood with all of its art, small shops and restaurants, and iconic colonial architecture was a highlight. Also, the center was really interesting to see as its former government buildings (from the days of Rio as the Brazilian capital) are real architectural gems. A church in the area with its gilded interior was amazing to view as well. Many thanks to Gregtur which responded right away and was the most organized company during our planning. The fast communications made planning and booking easy and fun. Also, our sincere gratitude to Newton for his knowledge, sense of humor, and love of his town - all of which contributed to a stellar day out.

Great private tour in Rio - We had a cloudy day, but the tour guide, Camilla and the driver, Marcos , made it perfect for all of us. Our kids had a great time and we were able to enjoy the day. They took us to all the main sites and were able to accommodate all of our requests. Camilla is great with kids and made the 8 hour tour very entertaining.
