My husband and I did the Full Day Tour with João (guide) and Marcelo (driver). They picked us up at 7:50am at our hotel and we started off the tour at Christ The Redeemer, where we took some amazing photos and enjoyed some great views. Then we headed to Selaron steps, Metropolitan Cathedral, Municipal Theater, Cinelândia, Downtown, Sambódromo, Maracanã, and Parque Lage. This was all in one day! I don't know how they managed to get us to so many places in one day, and I applaud their hard work. I found we had plenty of time to sightsee at each location and to take all the photos we wanted. João was very helpful throughout the tour and took photos of us at each location we visited. We also learned some history and fun things about each location we stopped at and also drove by. Oh, the lunch spot was delicious, affordable, and clean. It was a buffet with so many great options, that it was difficult to choose. At the end of the tour, we asked to be dropped off at the Sugarloaf cable car, so we could finish this amazing day with a sunset at Sugarloaf mountain. All in all, perfect tour with no delays, super organized, very professional driver and very knowledgeable tour guide. Highly recommend it!

Great way to see a lot of Rio in a single day. Grateful to our guide, Fernando for going above and beyond! He took our photos, drove us to several locations, and gave us tips to stay safe and enjoy the city during Carnival.

There are no words to describe the amazing work from Rio adventures and more specifically Bruno. We planned a wedding in Rio with 40+ people coming in from the US. They took care of every single thing for all of our guests for over 10 days in Rio. Bruno was our go to person from suggesting excursions, coordinating with our guests, logistics and making sure our group which ranged from age 10-65 had everything in place for an easy experience. Some of the excursions we did as a group (Christ Redeemer, Sugar Loaf, Santa Teresa, a full boat day, hikes) but there were so many things that our guests wanted to do by themselves and at their own time (beach tours, paragliding, hang gliding) - Bruno coordinated everything with the best English speaking tour guides, who were always on time and provided a once in a lifetime and safe 10 days in Rio with zero stress for us who were getting married and already had so much on our plate. We got so much positive feedback from our guests on Rio Adventures and their time in Brazil thank you to Bruno. If you are looking for a local group that can show you all the best that Rio has to offer, look no further Bruno and Rio Adventures are the absolute best in business.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, highly professional, timely, and FUN travel org to usher you through the best of Rio- please look no further. Every excursion, every airport/hotel transfer, every experience- was done with first-class professionalism and luxury. Special shout out to Bruno- he is the PERFECT guide, who undoubtedly will take the best care of you and your friends/family when you visit. He is local and has a special passion for people and places that will leave you with an unforgettable experience. 🌟🌟🌟

Bruno and Alex were absolutely wonderful. The tour was fun and informative and it was clear they are both passionate about what they do and the beautiful city of Rio. Highly recommend this tour and any other tour you can book with them. We also did the Beach Tour on a different day and LOVED it.

RIO Adventures was a great company to work with. They were easy and flexible to schedule with. We were with two different guides during our trip. Bruno and Alex. Both were friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They kept us on time without being overbearing. I would have enjoyed spending time with either of them even when not on a tour. While the city I live in is more than 1 million people, Rio is so much larger. It was helpful to have knowledgeable, friendly guides, show us some of the sites. If you travel to RIO you would do well to let RIO Adventures plan your activities.
