Itinerary

  • Parque Nacional da Tijuca

    We will start by going into the Tijuca Rainforest, the largest urban rain forest in the world and home to hundreds of species of plants and wildlife, many threatened by extinction. Only when we are inside the forest we will feel how big and dense it really is and we will be surprised that we are still inside a big city, like Rio de Janeiro.

    20 minutes

  • Praia Da Joatinga

    Secondly, we will head to the amazing and secret Joatinga Beach; a small jewel formed by a hidden cove is one of the most beautiful beaches in Rio de Janeiro and its visitation is a high point for those who like beach, surf, nature and to know where the “Cariocas” go for fun.

    20 minutes

  • Praia de Sao Conrado

    We will stop by São Conrado Beach to see the hang-gliders land on the beach after their fall from Pedra Bonita. From here you also have a great view of the iconic mountain Pedra da Gávea.

    20 minutes

  • Rocinha

    We will enter the most famous and largest favela in Rio, Rocinha. Understand how a favela really works and what factors have influenced it thru history and present. If your group is up to 2 people then we will go to the very top of the Favela. Groups 3 people and more, we enter into the favela, by foot, but do not go to the top.

    30 minutes

  • Corcovado - Christ the Redeemer

    Next we go up Corcovado Hill, by van, to see Brazil’s greatest national icon and on of the new wonders of the world, for some fantastic photos. This is the highest point we will visit during this day, with 710 meters. Our Rio Official Guide will facilitate your entrance tickets, avoiding the public long line to acquire them.

    1 hour 30 minutes

  • Mirante Dona Marta

    From this lookout point, we see Sugarloaf and Corcovado Moutain, from a completely different angle. We also have a complete view over the center area and Guanabara Bay.

    20 minutes

  • Santa Teresa

    We will have a tasty Brazilian BBQ lunch at the historical and bohemian neighbourhood Santa Teresa. This part of town is also famous for artistry, culture and great views over Rio.

    45 minutes

  • Escadaria Selaron

    Great place for the best photos ever and an iconic place featured in music videos such as Snoop Dogg's "Beautiful". Some background: In 1990, Selarón began renovating dilapidated steps that ran along the front of his house. It started out as a side-project to his main passion, painting, but soon became an obsession. He found he was constantly out of money, so Selarón sold paintings to fund his work and also tiles were donated from all over the world. It was long and exhausting work but he continued on and eventually covered the entire set of steps in tiles, ceramics and mirrors.

    20 minutes

  • Sugarloaf Mountain

    Sugarloaf Mountain is a peak that rises 396 meters high and presents a bird’s eye view of Rio de Janeiro from the mouth of Guanabara Bay. To get to the top we take two cable cars called “bondinhos”. The first cable car takes us up to the Urca Mountain and the second to Sugarloaf. Our Rio Official Guide buys the needed tickets at a separate ticket office, without the long public line, only granted to Official Guides. We'll end this full packed, fund day here at Sugarloaf and see the sun go down over Rio de Janeiro.

Rio Love story was an anazing experience

Published on Feb, 2025

This tour was amazing, i got to see all the beautiful things Rio has to offer. Tavi was very helpful organizing this tour and Alejandro our tour guide was amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!!

Our guide Alex and our...

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide Alex and our driver Wilson were very informative and good with teenagers and adults. Overall we had a fun day and they went above and beyond to get us through a jammed packed tour despite the very heavy holiday traffic and crowds. They were as cheery at the end of the long day as at the beginning. Definitely recommend if you only have a short time in Rio and want to see the major sites.

AMAZING Experience!

Published on Dec, 2024

My family of 5 (4 adults and 1 child - 6 yrs) had an amazing time on this tour with Alejandro! He was so very knowledgeable and shared both cultural and historical perspectives of this gorgeous city! He was so very patient with us and waited as I needed a bit more time to visit Christ The Redeemer monument. We will never forget this experience and are very grateful for the phenomenal and gracious driver and Alejandro’s professionalism.

AMAZING Experience!

Published on Dec, 2024

Alejandro was the most AMAZING tour guide! We are a family of 4 adults and 1 child (6 years old)! The tour was so very inclusive! We saw the city, the beaches, the outskirts, and his history lessons taught us so much about the city’s history and culture that we were unaware of! Loved it, loved it, loved it!

An awesome tour of Rio.. Memorable.

Published on Mar, 2024

We had a great day looking around the sites and the off beaten paths of Rio. Tavi was with us, made it fun and entertaining, and all the while making us feel safe. Travel to each site was a breeze with a private car and driver. Just perfect. The view from the favela was awesome. When you want to visit Rio give tavi and his Rio live story a call. You won't regret it! Tavi will take care of you!
