Free tours a Rio de Janeiro

very good

Very enjoyable and entertaining with great history

It was AMAZING! Bruno was an outstanding guide. I learned so much about the history of Rio, slavery, the roots of samba, etc. Bruno did a spectacular job describing everything, giving me personal recommendations on places to visit, and even sang a samba. One of the best walking tours I have been on.

El tour de Joel fue maravilloso! Nos explicó la historia de Río, nos llevó por lugares históricos, bellos e importantes que de otra forma pasan desapercibidos y nos dio increible consejos para disfrutar la ciudad.

Espectacular la experiencia del tour con Sebastián, nos explicó la historia de Brasil de forma pausada, dinámica, entretenida, amena y cercana. Se dio todo tiempo, un tour sin prisas, bien armado y dinámico. Suuuper recomendable.

Victoria tenía un amplio conocimiento de la historia de Brasil y lo transmitía en forma muy amena

Krys was an amazing guide! She knows a lot about the city, and you can tell she’s always interested in learning even more with every tour. We were very grateful to her because we arrived about 10 minutes late and she kindly waited for us. The only small thing to keep in mind is that the tour length might vary. Although it’s planned to last around two hours, it can sometimes go a bit longer depending on the group and the questions people ask. For us it wasn’t a problem at all, but if you have a strict schedule it might be good to mention it to her at the beginning. Overall, she was warm, intelligent, and super funny. We definitely recommend taking a tour with her!

Victoria es super simpática, atenta y su tur es muy interesante!

Muy buena experiencia. Fernando fue un excelente guia.

Excelente la explicación histórica y los lugares recorridos

Er ist freundlich

Bruno was a great tour guide! I would 100% recommend him!

Bien el tour y la guía Mica!

Muito obrigado Sebas (Joel)!

El recorrido y el guía, Fernando, excelentes. Fernando fue muy claro, simpático y didáctico en todas sus explicaciones, así como también para aclarar nuestras dudas. Lo recomiendo sin dudas, mí papá y yo quedamos muy contentos.

Pedro told an excellent story of the area and Rio de Janeiro past and present. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rio to get a much better understanding of the city amd visit areas you may not visit otherwise

Luiz ist sehr kompetent und authentisch. Haben viele spannende Straßen gesehen und viel über die Hintergründe gelernt. Größte Empfehlung für die Tour!

Todo muy interesante y bien explicado. Buen recorrido en el que vimos todo lo más relevante de la ciudad

Krys es una guía muy entretenida y conocedora de la cultura brasileña. Lo volvería a hacer si tuviera la oportunidad.

En temporada de carnaval, estuvo muy entretenido el recorrido, aunque algunos de los lugares no se pudieron visitar porque estaban cerrados

Time flew by on this tour ! Fantastic personalised small group tour (4 of us ) with Thiago who gave us great information about all things and a really nice experience with the tram ride and walk around a fun neighbourhood. It would have been a different experience exploring this area by ourselves - Thiago added stories and color ! Thank you so much !

Thiago’s walking tour was hands down one of the best experiences we had in Rio. You can feel immediately that he runs this tour with real passion and care. It’s not just a list of facts — it’s a perfectly balanced mix of deep historical insights, fascinating background information, hilarious stories, unexpected fun facts, and true local insider tips. We learned an incredible amount without it ever feeling overwhelming. Thiago’s humor and storytelling made every stop engaging and memorable. The 360-degree viewpoints were a real highlight — seeing the entire city from above while he explained how everything connects gave us a completely new understanding of Rio. Exploring Santa Teresa in such depth made the neighborhood come alive. By the end, we didn’t just feel like visitors — we felt like we truly understood the place. Thiago answered all our questions. If you’re in Rio and want more than just a standard tour, book this one. It has everything — knowledge, views, stories, laughs, and heart. Absolutely unforgettable.

Lia was a great guide! Very informative!

Muy buen conocedor de Rio, sus costumbres, su cultura, especialmente en los lugares de Santa Teresa. También se destaca su internacionalismo, viaja mucho por la región y el mundo.

We had a lovely walk in Santa Teresa with Thiago. He was very nice, knowledgeable, flexible and we had an unforgettable tour with him! Thank you very much! Highly recommended!
