Favela Cultural Tour - Dona Marta

RTT did an amazing job taking care of our group! Agostino did everything he could to make sure we had an incredible trip. He was flexible with the schedule in order to accommodate our needs. He made sure got the most out of this once in a lifetime experience for many of the students in our group. I would highly recommend using the company for you adventure to Rio.

We booked a tour of Rio and arranged to be picked up at the Cruise terminal. We were greeted by Agostinho who was our driver and guide for the day. He spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. He took us to the Selaron Steps, Christ the Redeemer and Cable Car up Sugar Loaf Mountain before dropping us off with our luggage at our hotel in Copacabana. Agostinho had pre-purchased Skip the Line tickets for us which saved us queuing for the main attractions. We had a quality air conditioned Mercedes minibus and cold water was available on the vehicle throughout the day. Agostinho was so relaxing to be with and the day in Rio was the highlight of our holiday in South America. If you need looking after professionally don’t hesitate to use RTT.

Vitor was a good guide. He is very much knowledgeable about all the places we went on this trip. Really enjoyed all of trip

This is a long overdue review of Rio Taxi & Transfer. We've gone on 2 city tours with Agostinho, once in 2019 and again in 2021. We also took advantage of the transportation to and from the airport and our hotel. RTT was extremely responsive via email and WhatsApp. The cost of our tours + tranfers were very fairly priced in comparison to other companies, but RTT's customer service was far superior! International payment was very easy and credit card payments made in person had no issue. They accept all major credit cards, even AMEX which was a plus! Every vehicle we rode in was new and well maintained - they even had snacks and beverages on board for us. The drivers stayed with the vehicles at all times and if someone wanted to skip a destination, they had the option to stay and rest on board in the air conditioning. The drivers also assisted with loading and unloading our 20+ pieces of luggage to and from the airport. Agostinho is fluent in English which was extremely important to us when bringing along friends and family from the US who had never visited Brazil. Agostinho was even able to conduct the tour in both Portuguese and English so that all could participate. We kept to our itinerary, but did have the flexibility to extend or reduce the amount of time spent at each stop. Agostinho is extremely knowledgeable, professional, but most of all kind. We thought we were just going on a tour, but ended up befriending an amazing guy! The tours were so relaxed, peaceful, and fun. I can't wait to book our next visit this year!

Agostinho is our new favorite private tour guide/driver. We are a family of 4( 2 teenagers) and he is a great fit for us. We feel safe and comfortable with him. He is a safe driver. His van is so clean and comfortable and he made sure he sanitized our hands each time we get in his van. He’s funny and very kind. We’ve been to a lot of private tours and what we like about him is he’s not annoying and only shares just right amount of information. He gives us private moments and always available for questions. He accommodated our request, he takes pictures for us, he brought us to local great restaurant, gives safe advice, he doesn’t rushed us, We appreciate your kindness and authentic human connection. Thank you Agostinho! Roa family

Excellent. Leandro was very patient and gave a very in depth explanation on the tour sights we were brought to. My friend and I who came from Dubai enjoyed the timely experience and would recommend Leandro to anyone who's looking for a guide around Rio. Not to mention that he speaks multiple languages too. Muito obrigado.

We had transfers from the airport and also a day tour in Rio, they were very easy to arrange with Rio transfer and the service was excellent Thanks again Fabiana and Agostinho

Leandro was a very kind and helpful guide who explained us all the details whatever we had seen. It has been a fantastic trip thanks to him.

We booked our trip with Agostinho for March. unfortunately due to border closures we are not able to make the trip. However our experience with Fabiana and Agostinho has been awesome from the beginning. Fabiana provided detailed information on the tour requested and helped us book tranfers too and from the ariport as well. She provided detailed information and receipts for the cost of the same. When we had to cancel Agostinho and Fabiana worked quickly and gave us a full refund. I'm so impressed with the service they offered and completely recommend them. Some day we will have a chance to visit Rio and I will make sure all our bookings are with Rio Taxi and Transfer. Thank you very much for your fabulous service .

We had the best time with Agostinho who was very careful and knowledgeable about Rio and its surroundings. And there is WiFi in the car for IG lives ;-) thanks again to the best photographer ever, unforgettable trip! 🇧🇷☀️🐸

We took Tour Service for the two couples which lasted all day. We visited Sugarloaf, the Christ, the staircase of Selarom, Sambodromo outside, Maracana also outside. Beautiful tour. Our guide Agustin was splendid. Super friendly and loving. Servicial. He explained a lot about each place. Each time I recommend places to take pictures and tell us small data of each part of the tour. He knows the story well and transmits it with great passion highlighting important facts that marked the moment and what then came next. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed it. We recommend it 100%. The vehicle comfortable and new. Book early and don’t wait at the last minute, you are in demand for good recommendations.

Professionalism and kindness at all times, Agostiño treated us as if we were his family. We hire airport and hotel transfers, city tour of RIO and round-trip transfers to BUZIOS (all private tour for 6 people). At all times he kept us informed of everything we had been seeing, he offered us water during all the trips, he was really super kind. The tour we took was spectacular, super complete. Even though we were with children, it was very bearable. I 100% recommend Agostiño and his company to carry out any type of activity and transfer that is needed since they are super responsible, compliant and offer a service adapted to each family.

Incredible experience, 100% recommended. Really enjoy some of the historical explanation of Rio de Janeiro. It is obvious that Agostinho really enjoys what he does and strives to provide excellent service. Rest assured that your trip will be as satisfactory as possible, leaving the tour in Agostinho's hands. Brigade!!

We were planning this trip with my family a long time ago. We travel 9 people with children and teenagers. We decided to hire Agostinho and it was the best decision we could have made!  Beyond being an excellent guide, with much knowledge of the history of each place, I provide us quality and warmth in its accompaniment. Thanks to this Service we could enjoy the city even more!  Very grateful for the experience. Super recommended! Thank you Agostinho

We have been very well served since the acquisition of the package. Augustinho an amazing Cover, polite, very well informed, attentive. After all, Agostinho is more than a tourist guide, he is a history teacher about Rio de Janeiro! We will come back more often!

It was a wonderful experience, I contacted Augustin from Guatemala two days before arriving in Rio and Fabianna helped me in a matter of 2 hours to coordinate airport pickup and day tour transfer. We arrived at 7am in Rio and when we left they were already waiting for us. Super recommended and leave a charger in the vehicle that I spend leaving Augustin to the hotel... highly valued.... They were our first contact with Rio and without a doubt the best, they make you feel at home and in family.

Fantastic experience with an extremely comfortable Van Agostinho is a brilliant person, prepared and very nice Our two days in Rio were very nice

Everything, from the beginning to the end the tour was the best, the view from the Christ snuck out of a book, ’the truth that the guide 100 points

Eternally grateful for the attention given to our team by RTT. Effective communication with Ms. Fabiana and Mr. Agostihno’s incredible treatment as a tour guide in addition to his extensive knowledge of Rio’s history and wonders. Our group of 8, mostly teenagers, was able to appreciate and know the city with all the comforts and a very special treatment. They are definitely an excellent team of professionals.

Thanks to Agostinho we were able to get around the city in maximum safety and learn about secrets and curiosities of Rio de Janeiro. Very welcoming and caring person towards the whole group (14 young women). Agostinho definitely helped make this experience unforgettable! We recommend with all our heart

Very satisfied with the services provided by RTT. Whoever accompanied us was Mr. Augustine, who in addition to not having a lot of good people, proved a great acquaintance with the history of the places we visited. The cordiality and love for what is done is the difference in the work of RTT. I recommend the city tour natural beauties. Rio de Janeiro is amazing.

We were treated with the greatest and best possible attention! It was amazing to know so much about the Wonderful City, extremely rich in content. The affection with us will be impossible to forget, we only have to thank.

Thanks to Agosthino for his kindness, availability, professionalism and knowledge, which allowed us to discover a beautiful and endearing Rio, and its surroundings. We are absolutely delighted by the unfailing quality of Service offered by Fabiana for the booking and by Agosthino for the progress of the established program (Rio Transfer - City Tour Natural Beauties). This trip excited us, as did this wonderful country and that too, thanks to our experience with Agosthino, a good week. 20/20 . Sophie & Eddy
