"Excellent. Our holiday had many, many highlights; the experience with Rodrigo and Rio Photo Tours is at the top. If you are looking for a special photographic tour experience don’t look elsewhere…you will be disappointed if you do. I cannot recommend highly enough."

"If you want to experience the real Rio, interpret and capture your own unique impressions of the city then Rodrigo is your ideal guide. Rodrigo is a photographer and understands that photographers do not want just record shots or narcsissistic selfie shots but rather images that reflect a place and the photographer and tell part of a story or journey"

"I could not recommend Rodrigo more highly as his knowledge and passion about Rio as well as photography made the tours an experience of a life time that I will treasure for ever."

"We had the most fabulous holiday in Rio but the day that we spent with Rodrigo was the best. From the very start Rodrigo was impressive. He asked what we wanted to see and customized the tour to suit us. I can highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in photography that wants to see the best of Rio. "

The way to see Rio Three full days in Rio; saw areas with Rodrigo during two full days (12:00-20:00) we would not have thought of visiting and seeing through the lens. Rodrigo focuses on what you the photographer wants to photograph; and he shares photo tips. Time is allowed that would not be possible on a regular guided visit.

I booked a phototour with Rodrigo as I traveled alone - to carefully plan and see the most within 2 days and at the same time feel safe. If you want to see the most and do not want to wait 2 hours in a regular tour till all the guests are picked from their hotel and want to take unforgettable pictures then this is the tour to take. I always felt safe with Rodrigo and highly recommend this tour!

Rodrigo planned a day to hit the highlights for 8 hours in Rio. Rodrigo communicated in advance of the trip, during, and after. We moved quickly from site to site, but he allowed us to take our time at the sites. although we only brushed the surface of Rio, it was a great peek into the beauty and its contrasts.

"Great photo tour of Rio We spent 3 days in Rio, 2 with Rodrigo. The photos taken during the two days with Rodrigo are some of my best. He knows where to go at what time to get fabulous shots. And he is a terrific guy to spend the time with."

"Deep into the city Rodrigo knows Rio like few people do, we have been in places out of the traditional tourist routes and it make me experienced get more deep into the city and more close with the locals. For sure he's my first indication if you're looking for a Photo Tour experience in Rio or even if you're not a photographer I'm sure you will have a great time with him exploring the city."

"The Perfect Tour of Rio Rodrigo is an exceptional guide. Before we even arrived, he corresponded with us and built a tour based on our interests which included the obvious spots, but also included less visited spots Throughout the tour, he was flexible and completely attuned to what WE wanted to do. Equally important, Rodrigo made us feel safe in the city. The next time I visit Rio, he will be the first person I call."

"Great Tour of Rio! When I first contacted him he sent asked what we were interested in. The tour he set up matched my requests perfectly. I cannot recommend him enough. His price was comparative to the cruise line excursions but we got so much more for our money. Don't hesitate to try his tours".

"Great Walk through the City I had a great time with Rodrigo in Rio. I booked the half day tour. He showed me some places I wouldn't have seen without him. I only can recommend it".

"Exceptional. Many reasons to book Rodrigo... - He will get you around Rio with the highest regard for your safety and security. - His tours are completely tailor made and flexible. He is there to put you in front of what you want to photograph and he does this very effectively. - He will get you into places and situations that you would NEVER find on your own. - Rodrigo gladly helped me out with pre and post tour advice and recommendations which I consider to be outside of his mandate. Independent travel in Rio can be very stressful for the uninitiated and Rodrigo provides a ton of relief".
