Rio de Janeiro Tour Guides

Daniel F.

Olá! I’m Daniel, and I’m thrilled to guide you through the wild heart of Rio de Janeiro -Tijuca National Park. Born and raised in Rio, I’ve always felt a deep connection to the mountains, forests, and waterfalls that embrace our city. While the beaches often steal the spotlight, it’s in the lush green trails of the Tijuca Forest that Rio’s true magic comes alive. From the roar of hidden waterfalls to the call of capuchin monkeys echoing through the trees, this is where the city breathes. I studied Business Administration and Geography, and over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to exploring, protecting, and sharing the natural wonders of the Atlantic Rainforest. I’m a certified ecological tour guide, and whether we’re hiking up Pedra Bonita, exploring ancient caves, cooling off under the Taunay Waterfall, or discovering secret beaches, my goal is to connect you with the powerful nature that thrives just minutes from the urban buzz. Tijuca Forest isn’t just the largest urban rainforest in the world—it’s a living, breathing story of resilience, beauty, and adventure. And the best part? We can mix eco-tours with other natural attractions around Rio, like mangroves teeming with caimans and capybaras, or take a dip in a secluded beach far from the crowds. Let’s explore a side of Rio most visitors never see—and create unforgettable memories along the way.

Flavio T.

Welcome to Rio de Janeiro! Come fall in love with this marvelous city just like I did since I was a kid!! My name is Flavio, and I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. I am a Gastronomy Graduate and since 2002, I have worked in restaurants and hotels around the world (USA, France, Spain, Curaçao), always welcoming, serving, and in contact with people from all over the world. I am passionate about learning and knowing about stories, traditions, cultures, and obviously gastronomy, which makes me want to share everything that is best about our city. In addition to the usual touristic attractions, we can arrange personalized tours to places not all tourists know or think of going to, breaking taboos and showing various facets of the city. The tours are done with my own car, safe and comfortable. Let me surprise you what Rio has to offer you!!

Hello! It´s a pleasure to have you here! I hope we have a great time together, exploring what Niterói has to offer! Many people who comes to visit Rio, forget about his sister. Yes! Niterói would be something like, New York and New Jersey? Both cities are connected by a bridge and have a lot of history background together trough time. From beaches to visit and hills to hike, to historical museums and traditional restaurants! Nature and culture come together in a Feijoada like dish, to offer you many possibilities of entertainment and good momments to share! It will make your head spin, just like having a caipirinha! We can go for several hiking trails and visit tons of beautiful landscapes! Are you into museums?Architecture? I got you cover! And why not book a paragliding tandem flight to be the cherry on top of your trip? Or maybe an outrigger canoe ride! Or just chill on a nice beach! Let me show you a Niterói - RJ from a local perspective!

Luis D.

My name is Luis and I was born and raised in Rio. I believe I have always been a tour guide. I use to bug my kindergarten teacher to do show-and-tell every other day. Now every day is show-and-tell! I get to show off my city, and take people to see places I like to go and do the things that I love to do. In 2003, after living for 8 years abroad, I've decided to come back to my hometown, and for the past 17 years I've been working full time as a licensed and accredited private tour guide in Rio. I'm quite fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese and have a degree in tourism and an MBA in environmental management.

I have a background MA in Arts Management at the University of Oregon in the USA and I am a professional tour guide since 2014 in Brasil. I am passionate about nature, culture and the arts. I am an ever adventurous person, always looking forward to connect with diverse cultures and valuing their traditions. I seek and invite you to try out the unexpected, to feel the flavors and vibes, to experience live music, the scents of coffees and cachaças’ spirit, fresh food, and the lush scenery of Rio. Come experience our cultural ancestry through nature and material and immaterial traces. I live each moment with enthusiasm and I share it with people who want to live the same, worshiping life with passion and connecting with others. Storyteller, arts educator and tour guide, three main activities that Kelly Tavares, born and raised in Rio, has been practicing for years. Photography, art and traveling three hobbies she has cultivated since graduation at the School of Fine Arts of Brazil. I am a Community Cultural Producer, multicultural facilitator and language teacher, three professional activities which have been part of my life since graduation from the University of Oregon, USA. I work with love for the causes I believe and I will share unforgettable moments in Rio, through authentic experiences, mixing present and past, personal and cultural history, and a bit of everything you can imagine. I have been running presentation and livestreamed virtual tours for two years already, having developed and used different transmedia methods, such as audio guides, virtual livestreamed and multimedia presentations to showcase and present Rio de Janeiro.

Alan D.

Hi and welcome! My name is Alan, I am 44 years old, and I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. Having been to 35 countries on all the continents of the world, and having lived in Australia, Holland, Israel and Argentina, I have had the opportunity to be in touch with different cultures and languages - and this grew my desire to show my city, Rio de Janeiro, to tourists. I am a licensed tour guide in Rio by EMBRATUR, the Brazilian Institute of Tourism, and have been a private guide in Rio de Janeiro since 2013, having carried out hundreds of private tours of Rio, and have become more and more in love with my city and with my job as a Rio Tour Guide. I am fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese, and have a BA in Social Communication. When I'm not guiding, I enjoy writing, reading, spirituality, hiking and studying languages (I also speak intermediate French). In my private tours in Rio de Janeiro I use a 7-seater car (including me as rio de janeiro driver guide), and my motivation is to be flexible and to offer you tailor-made tours in Rio, customized to your needs and desires, optimizing your time in Rio. What I look for in each tour, is to provide you with an experience that you will remember for many years to come!
