A very complete tour to know the best of Rio: the Selarón Staircase, the Cathedral, the Olympic Boulevard, Santa Teresa with its delicious feijoada in Bar do Mineiro, the Christ the Redeemer and the Chinese View. Luly was an excellent guide, close and with many stories and curiosities that make the tour much more interesting. Also, share many tips of places and plans to take advantage of other days in the city. Highly recommended for those who want to discover Rio in an authentic and well organized way.

Visiting Rio de Janeiro with Lully was the best recommendation they could make. In a single day we could visit the sites of maximum tourist interest without queues, with very comfortable transfers and very good company. I recommend taking the tour as soon as you arrive in Rio, because it helps you orient yourself in the city and gives you tips for other days. Rio is an amazing city, but certainly with Lully it is even better!

Spectacular tour we did with Lully. Very dynamic, interesting and fun. Lully knows a lot about history and the city, makes an entertaining tour, with great energy, and even takes the best photos. Super recommended. We love her from start to finish.

Marcio was absolutely incredible, going above and beyond to help us explore Rio de Janeiro. He made navigating the busy sites seamless and efficient. If we could, we’d give him 6 stars! Highly recommended!

We made a tour with 3 pairs of friends from Spain in August, 2024. We didn't know Lully before. We found it through the reviews of Trip Advisor. The experience was surprising. Lully gave us a mega attention during the initial contacts. We passed a very detailed budget with a tailor-made roadmap for our group and flexible adjustments. In addition to transmitting a super positive energy and good mood always, Lully knows every little piece of the River with mastery. Carries a wide baggage of informative and historical knowledge that made the tour even more interesting. With a Spanish group, the tour was all in Castilian. 10 of 10! I recommend it to my best friends.

My 86-year-old mom and I had three days of tours with Lully and staff and we only have compliments to make for the unforgettable days we lived in Wonderful City. Note 1000 in all matters: total sympathy, goodwill to meet our interests, wisdom in adapting tours according to the weather (some cloudy days with rainstorms) and the rhythm of an elderly Cover, knowledge of history, communication with language accessible to lay people, punctuality, affection and safety (walked all the time in hand with my mother, facilitated access when it was possible to pick up the elevators), flexibility to change restaurants, stops for lunch and toilet at appropriate times, vehicle in excellent conditions of cleanliness and operation, driver Allan very careful and attentive. In addition to all this, Lully recorded the tours in amazing photos and videos because he has the experience and sensitivity to choose the best points of each place visited. Gave tips for the free days. We purchased via Rio Alternative the helicopter flight (impermeable) and requested a trusted driver (Marcelo) who made the transfer to the heliport, also took us to lunch and get to know the coast (from Barra da Tijuca to Copacabana), stopping at the beach of Pepino to see the descent of the delta wings and parapents. We love Rio and you! Thank you for everything! We are very pleased to have chosen the Rio Alternative Tour.
