How to Get There?
Rio de Janeiro's International Airport (GIG) is the main gateway for international travelers. From here, you can take a taxi, bus, or shuttle to your accommodation. If you're flying domestically, you can land at Santos Dumont Airport (SDU) for shorter trips. Our tours typically start from the city center, which is easily accessible by public transportation or private transfer services.
When to Go?
The best time to visit Rio de Janeiro for group tours is during the dry season, which runs from May to September. During this period, you can enjoy clear skies and pleasant weather. However, be prepared for higher prices and larger crowds. For a more relaxed experience, consider visiting in the shoulder months of April or October, when the weather is still pleasant, and the crowds are smaller.

A full-day tour to the main attractions, including transportation and entry fees, typically costs around R$250 to R$350 per person.

For a more personalized experience, private tours can cost around R$400 to R$600 per person per day.
Where to Stay Nearby?
