Rio in One Day: Full-Day Private Sightseeing Tour

Our guide, Vitor Rezende, was fantastic. He worked with us to create a custom tour that allowed us to see all of the major attractions in Rio plus explore places off the usual tourist paths. Highly recommend Vitor if you want to spend a day in Rio.

Private touring the only way to go, with a guide who knows how to adjust to your request. Edwardo was the best. Be prepared for a good education.

We came to Rio for Carnival 2026 — just me and my 19-year-old son — and having Marcio Briggs from Greg Tour with us made the whole trip something we’ll never forget. Rio during Carnival is intense, wild, beautiful, a little crazy… and Marcio just made it all feel easy. He didn’t feel like a “guide.” He felt like a friend who happens to know absolutely everything about the city. The history, the culture, the real-life stories, the things locals think but don’t say out loud — he shared all of it in a way that was fun and natural. And somehow… everywhere we went, doors opened. We were welcomed with smiles. Things flowed. It just worked. He knows people, and people clearly like him. As a dad traveling with my son, what meant the most was how safe and comfortable we felt the entire time. Marcio was calm, attentive, always one step ahead without ever making it feel controlled or rigid. He just took care of us. He read the vibe perfectly — when to explain, when to move, when to let us just stand there and take in the magic of Rio. This trip gave my son and me memories we’ll talk about for the rest of our lives. And Marcio is a huge reason why. Thank you, Marcio — for your kindness, your care, your energy, and your big heart. Rio is special… but you made it unforgettable.

Vitor was an amazing guide who took us around the sights and giving really good information. His knowledge was so great. I would thoroughly recommend him and the tour.

This 10-hour private tour of Rio was absolutely incredible and it was all thanks to the amazing guide Camila. She is exceptionally knowledgeable, full of enthusiasm, and truly passionate about her city. Her energy was contagious and she genuinely made me fall in love with Rio. The entire day was perfectly organized and timed. Every stop was carefully planned so we could enjoy the sights without heavy crowds, which made the experience even more enjoyable and relaxed. We have covered most of the sights and I have been treated to real gastronomical delights too! The car was comfortable and the driver very polite and helpful, making the long day feel effortless. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to explore Rio. This tour exceeded all expectations, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. A truly five-star experience!
