Such a fun and easygoing tour! We got to see some cool spots in Rio (like the statues of Ayrton Senna and Princess Isabel) and everything was just beautiful. The food was so good, from a pineapple sandwich to a shrimp dish and a pastel... everything was delicious. Our guide was super sweet, always checking on everyone, especially those with allergies, while sharing fun stories about Brazilian food and culture. Also, one of the nicest parts was meeting people from other countries too, like an Argentine girl who was part of our group. I’d totally do it again, it was the perfect mix of good food, history, and sunshine!
Great food, great guide, and a genuinely fun way to explore the city.

I did the Copacabana Secret Food Tour and loved it. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. What really stood out to me was how well they connect food with the place — you don’t just stop to eat. They give you context, stories, and references behind each dish and how it ties into Rio’s culture. It felt like I was really getting to know Copacabana through its flavors and history at the same time. Great food and a really fun way to explore the city. Highly recommend.
