Our guide, Gustavo was incredible! He communicated with the entire group in different languages all at the same time and was knowledgeable about every stop and more. He was welcoming and accommodating at every opportunity. He made the tour around Rio even more unforgettable.

Itinerary
From an exuberant view of the city of Rio de Janeiro, Corcovado hill, one of the wonders of the modern world - elected by the people - rests the largest Brazilian icon, the image of Christ the Redeemer.
Reference of the entrance of the Guanabara Bay, the Sugar Loaf offers us one of the most beautiful panoramic views of Rio de Janeiro, as well as other municipalities of the State, envious of the beauty of the wonderful city.
It's like going to Rome and not going through the Colosseum. Considered one of the biggest stages of world football. It received two World Cups and moments that have perished in its lawns. Many curiosities will be part of this passage. * At this point we make an external visit, since we still have many points to know.
The biggest carnival in the world happens in this great stadium. The samba catwalk Professor Darcy Ribeiro, popularly known as the sambadrome, receives every year this spectacle that enchants the world. Get to know the stories and curiosities of this work designed by one of the most important architects of all time.
The inspiration of a "madman" left one of the most visited attractions of the city of Rio de Janeiro today. A great mosaic with the colors of Chile and Brazil. The most chosen photo for Facebook profiles. The staircase will surprise you!
An Outstanding, Beautiful and Exotic Cathedral. It has details that impress by its brutality and delicacy at the same time. He received two popes even with his recent history. This temple also deserves your visit.

Our guide Bruno was very informative and kept us updated with the plan. We enjoyed the tour with Bruno and would recommend, everything that was listed on the tour we completed on a smooth schedule
We had an amazing day with 13 other visitors to Rio and our tour guide, Gustavo. We visited the sites as advertised and had sufficient time to spend at each location. Gustavo communicated effortlessly between English and Spanish and was clear with all guidance and information. The lunch was good, although I was unsure of what I ate, given everything was in Portuguese without an English translation below. The flan was outstanding!! Lol! Also, the driver was excellent- he navigated the traffic so well. Highly recommend this tour to see the highlights in Rio.
The bus was 30 min late. They did not have AC. They did not do the scheduled itinerary. We had to wait an hour for a new bus, which broke down. The PA system wasn’t on the second bus so we didn’t get the guided tour. They were 3 hours late dropping us off. No one had a nice time, it was miserable.
Great day visiting Selearon steps, Christ the redeemer, sugarloaf mountain, the cathedral and football stadium from the outside. Good lunch. Our tour guide was very good and knowledgeable. Would recommend this your tour to others.
Excellent tour! Gustavo, our guide, was very knowledgeable and fun. Tour was well organized, with a driver that was flawless. Place to eat is great, clean, varied and all included. The attraction were done efficiently but not rushed. Overall great experience, recommend 100%!
Gustavo is knowledgeable and accountable. It got too windy for the sugarloaf mountain cable car but he rebooked it for next day for us which worked out great! Great buffet choice!
Excellent way to see Rio's highlights in a day! Gustavo was an excellent guide, stuck to a well organized tour with just enough time at each place. Lunch was efficient and plentiful. Would highly recommend!
Very complete tour just in one day. The most important highlights of Rio. Guided by Gustavo who was an excellent host.
My family really enjoyed the beginning and the end of the day, when visiting Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf mountain. Visits to Maracanã stadium was a waste of time since you do not go inside and you can barely see anything from outside. There was very little time at the Christ the Redeemer stop. The lunch was good (food was decent), but for the price we paid it was not meeting my expectations. They took us to a super busy buffet, we ended up going there twice because the first time line was too long to enter. When we got back the line was long again and we did not have priority entrance.... which was odd. If I had the opportunity to do this again, I would only do half day tour with the Jesus Christ statue and Sugarloaf mountain, and skip the meal.
Jose (Pepe) was our guide. He was the best! 10 stars! Great service, very friendly. Driver was great as well. Communication, transportation, guidance, food, etc was great! Loved it!
Very cool tour guide and a complete tour of the gorgeous Rio city.
Full Day. All landmarks in Rio. Zi, tour guide. Lovely man. Driver as well. You can’t ask more than that.
Gustavo was a fabulous guide. He knew how to keep the group on time and was able to keep us ahead of the massive crowds. Went to all the important places to see. Highly recommend.
Perfect way to see everything and the perfect length of time at each location. Gustavo was awesome and great at explaining everything.
Ok Rio Tour was amazing. Gustavo was very attentive, informative and fun right from the moment we were picked up from hotel. He spoke excellent Spanish and English. The entire tour was well organized and planned. We spent just the right amount of time at each location. I would highly recommend Ok Rio Tour and would definitely use again when visiting Rio.
The tour is well scheduled. Gustavo doesn't waste your time, use every seconds of your time. If you are short in time, it is a good option. Also, he speaks english very well, he is a very responsible and well-behaved leader. Totally recommended.
Gustavo was excellent; helping us navigate Rio in a prompt but relaxed pace. We felt we had enough time at each site and Gustavo did a great job of helping us maximize our time.
Gustavo was nothing short of awesome! From start to finished, Gustavo was on his stuff (on point). He will answer everything you think to ask, but may not ask. The views of the city are majestic. Be one time and everything will go as smooth as possible! You will not regret this tour! I’m not sure how many languages he knows, but he spoke 3 (Portuguese, Spanish and English) on my trip (all in sequence) you didn’t feel lost. It was pretty unique.
Really enjoyed our Rio day trip with OK Rio Tour. Gustavo was a great guide with humor and enthusiasm for guiding this tour. The tour was very well organized and run. We felt we got to see many attractions with adequate time to explore, take pictures and enjoy the sites. We spent a gorgeous day seeing some of the more well known tourist attractions and thoroughly enjoyed it! Would highly recommend this tour! 5 stars!
Great day tour covering all the major tourist spots in Rio in one day. The guide speaks English very well and all tickets were bought in advance, saving us time. We even got access to fast track queuing for some of the activities, which saved us time. The only negative is that I found out the tour was at least £20 cheaper if bought locally from a hotel. That's one thing to consider when booking these tours on Viator-type websites
Oh my goodness where do I begin!! Gustavo was the best. He really introduced us all to this beautiful city and it’s gorgeous people!! I would definitely recommend this tour as it gives you a very efficient view of this gorgeous city and covering the spectacular features like the Christ the redeemer and sugar loaf!! Obrigado Gustavo and team!!! (He went above and beyond and delivered my souvenirs I left behind in the van!!!)
One word, Gustavo! He is amazing all the way round he is not only punctual , but witty and very knowledgeable. This man will be ensure you beat the rush / crowds for all of the monuments which trust me you will be very grateful for. Great atmosphere and energy all generated by Gustavo (plus we were a cool group ;) Don’t think about it just book it , you won’t regret it. Only thing is if you’re interested in Samba City book that separately.
By far one of THE best guided tours I've ever done and one of the most stress-free experiences with a tour. Almost immediately after booking, I got a WhatsApp message from the tour organizers so we could coordinate an alternate pick up location. Normally they do pick up from the hotel where I was staying (Selina Lapa), but due to concerns about Carnival traffic, a few of us met the rest of the group in Copacabana instead. The pick up was right on time with no confusion. My tour guide, Gustavo was a super nice guy who spoke impeccable English / Spanish, and did the entire tour completely bilingual. The tour itself was a great mix of guided segments along with ample free time to wander around on our own, with clearly communicated meet-up times and places so we could regroup and move on to the next location. I got to see everything I wanted to see that day in a much shorter amount of time than it would have taken me to navigate the city on my own, AND the tour included a buffet lunch with plenty of vegetarian options (always a plus). The tour concluded around 17:00 which gave me the entire evening free to return to my hotel, shower, nap, and head out to the Champions Parade. 10/10 would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rio, especially if you only have one day and want to see a lot.
Excellent tour guide. Picked us up at hotel and dropped us off. Even WhatsApp message before hand with information on pick up. Guide was very informative and took time to give details as we drove from site to site. First time we have done an organised group trip as normally go our own way. However I recommend in Rio it’s safe to be with a registered company and guide you will feel much safer and get to see all you want. Best bit was Christ the redeemer had clear sky and views were amazing. Well worth it
Gustavo communicated with us very well in preparation for the tour. And he had such a positive attitude and so much energy while being full of Information and passion for his city of Rio. I highly recommend this experience very. He will treat you and yours well!!!
Gustavo is an amazing tour guide. He provided a great explination of Rio de Janeiros past and present. Answered any other questions with great insight, knew how to laugh and have fun. Had some great tips for places to eat/shop etc. Took some great group pictures for us. The driver we had on the day also drove very well and safe. The whole tour was very well organized and run. I reccomend Ok Rio Tour to everyone.
Gustavo is a very good, knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. He spoke Portuguese, Spanish and English the whole time. He made the tour interesting and fun. All questions were entertained and it’s just a wonderful experienced all in all. It is highly recommended. Thank you Gustavo.
Went all around with Victor and Gustavo. Spoke perfect English. Explain everything we saw thoroughly and made me under barazil culture and way much better. He stated with us on each places we visit. The van he took us in was huge for a party of 9. I highly highly recommend these guys!
Gustavo speaks perfect Portuguese, Spanish, and English, and he and his driver took us to all of the top spots in Rio. Gustavo is a pro; he knows his way around these tourist spots and provides all the info you need. I was very impressed in the way Gustavo took care of all of us. This is a very good tour, and I highly recommend it - thank you Gustavo for all your energy and caring ways :-)
Gustavo's team was very punctual, professional and knowledgeable. I appreciate all the tips we got for every stop we did, they helped us to navigate and explore Rio in a very effective and safer way. My boyfriend and I had a great experience on the tour with Gustavo. I'm Brazilian and my boyfriend is from Canada. We recommend this tour for all international gringos who wants to get to know Rio in a safe and nice way.
The entire trip was great! Gustavo was a fantastic tour guide and made sure we got to each attraction and experienced it fully! Tips on how to enjoy each attraction and avoid being taken advantage of was given before each and always came in handy. If I could have Gustavo and Ok Rio Tour plan all my tours for the future, I would be very happy. 11/10; would tour again.
Gustavo and Victor and the rest of the team are the best in Rio. They worked from early morning to drive the Rio Day tour and picked us up at 3 am in Lapa and Salgeiro Samba school. We were a group of 9 and the van holds 14. Victor was the main driver and Gustavo was the guide to answer your questions. They had many options but more importantly gave advice of things to do outside the tour. They went above and beyond when a friend of mine forget her medicine on the trip. They rearranged the schedule so we can wait for her to get an Uber and back from the hotel. They also knew the history of Rio and also discussed the latest news. They speak 4 languages ( EN, Port, Spanish and French. Prices were competitive but exceeded my expectations when coming to service. 5 stars
Ir was a really good tour, i’m pretty satisfied with the service! Augusto and Victor were very nice! Thanks guys!
Love it! Tour guide was amazing. We did everyrthingz As described. So much fun, entertaining and well organized.
If you don't have enough time even if you do, this Tour is a must while in Rio de Janeiro. Gustavo our guide was very well organized with details of the schedule, meeting points and answer questions about the sites. Lunch was very good, even though there was a lot to cover in one day, never felt rushed. Once again Thank Gustavo and OK Rio Tour for making our short stay in Rio Memorable.
Gustavo seemlessly catered for Portuguese, Spanish and English speakers. Our only disappointment was the decision to visit Christ the Redeemer in the afternoon, as the weather closed in and the statue was covered in fog. Lunch was excellent. I would recommend this tour!
Very interesting trip. We saw A lot i one Day. All The information we received was absorbing. Our Guide was helpful and funny 😉 very Good English. I recomend Fully 😊
We had a great day. The tourguide was really good and informative. We will differently recommend the tour if you are in Rio and looking for a nice way to see the city
Had an amazing day on the full day tour! Gustavo was a fabulous guide and was attentive towards every nationality switching languages during every educational talk. The weather wasn’t great and was raining and windy when he picked us up so he altered the schedule to make it fit around the weather which was a great touch as we got to see better views from the Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer when it cleared up. Lunch was lovely a typical Brazilian all you can eat buffet style. Expected it to be rubbish but it was actually the best buffet I’ve had since we’ve been here so it was a lovely surprise especially Considering it was included in the price. Overall a great day absolutely loved it. Big thanks again to Gustavo who was approachable, friendly and a professional guide who taught us a lot of in-depth and interesting information about Brazilian culture and the sites we saw. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rio!
We saw all the most important tourist sites in Rio in one day with Gustavo! Setting up the reservation online was quick and easy. He picked us up at the appointed time at our Copacabana hotel and we were off for a fun day, with a small group, for our tour of the city. Excellent lunch and entrance fees were all included! Gustavo filled our day with plenty of timely, interesting information. He answered all our questions, on a variety of topics, thoroughly. Highly recommend this tour!
This was without the best tour I have been on all my travels. Of course, the content of the tour was beautiful, as to be expected in Rio- but mainly our tour guide Gustavo was amazing. He effortlessly gave us an abundance of knowledge on all area of the tour, the history of Rio, and anything else you might have asked him, for example the architecture or any upcoming events in the city, and all this is three languages, keep everyone engaged by changing the languages during sentences. A truly 10/10 tour, thank you so much Gustavo.
The Rio tour was very interesting. Gustavo is an excelent guide and a funny guy we enjoyed the tour very much
Excellent. Very good communication before the day. Clear instructions on pickup. Small group, keep sightseeing on time. Provided adequate time at each stop. Very good lunch. Recommended
Amazing tour to get the overall history and site seeing of Rio in one day. Best experience is the tour guide Gustavo!!! He is well informed about the city and all the stops we made. Very impressed with the bi lingual translation while doing the tour. Highly recommended and a must see when visiting Rio!!!
It was very nice! You have the chance to visit pretty mich all the highlights in one time. The guide Gustavo was very nice, friendly and prepared! Totally reccomend it
Gustavo was our tour guide and he was great. I highly recommend this tour. We did the Rio day trip tour and it was very informative. We saw all the highlights of the city and nothing was rushed. The best part is that the group was small, about 14 people. Awesome job Gustavo.
Gustavo deserves 10 stars. Booked a private tour for 8 from the Rio cruise port with Ok Rio. Beforehand, Gustavo promptly responded to all my questions and concerns. He met us at the cruise port with a nice air conditioned van with lots of room. Since it was the day before NYE, the city was packed with people. He planned out the day to deal with the crowds and it was done expertly. His commentary was excellent with lots of interesting information. Sugar Loaf was done first with no crowds. Upon leaving, there was a 2 hour late. Saw all the major sites and the included AYCE lunch was great. Our last stop was Christ Redeemer and it was teaming with crowds and a 4 hour wait. Gustavo somehow got us in a priority line and we were at the top in less than 45 minutes. Don't know how he did it, but he is amazing. Drop off was back at the port. Can't recommend this company and Gustavo enough. It was a perfect day. The cost was 3x less than what the cruise line was offering. We saw much more and it was a private tour.
Gustavo was the guide and we had a very smooth and fun tour of Rio. He gave the tour both in English and Portuguese and I have to give my props to him, he managed to keep everyone engaged and make the tour fun and interesting. The bus was there waiting for us to get us to the next attraction, no waits, definitely a great way too see the city sights. We highly recommend it. Also the lunch in downtown was really good, a place where locals and tourist eat, food was good, service was fast.
What a fabulous tour we had , saw all the best sights with our guide who spoke 3 languages without taking a breath. We also had a great lunch buffet. All in all a day to remember. Thank you
