Private guide in Rio de Janeiro: the Old Town walk

A private guide who knows Rio de Janeiro properly — granite peaks straight out of the sea and a beach that runs for kilometres. No coach, no rush, and the day bends to what you actually want to see.

About this experience

Your guide is a historian or an architect who has lived in Rio de Janeiro for years. The day is yours: they will show you what they would show a friend, skip the parts that are only worth a photograph, and find you a table for lunch somewhere locals eat. Because it is private, the pace is whatever suits you, and you can change the plan as the day goes on.

Would book again

Great value for what you get. The small group size made a real difference. Went with my partner and we both enjoyed it.

Better than expected

Our guide was excellent — patient with the children and full of stories we would never have found ourselves. Went as a group of four and everyone was happy.

Disappointing

Disappointing. We waited over half an hour past the scheduled start with no explanation. Went with my partner and we both enjoyed it.

A real highlight

Worth every penny. We had looked at a few options and this was clearly the right one. Squeezed it in around a work trip and it was worth the time.
