You'll thank yourself later - Jasmin did an incredible job capturing my Rio de Janeiro experience. The sunrise behind Sugarloaf Mountain and my shots at Cristo Redentor are absolutely breathtaking. She’s a talented photographer who isn’t afraid to get creative—even lying on the ground—to get the best possible angle. Worth getting up for before sunrise!

Incredible Sunrise Tour – Best Way to See Rio - This tour was amazing. We started with sunrise at Dona Marta lookout and reached Christ the Redeemer right when it opened, before the crowds arrived. Ederson planned everything perfectly, adding Selarón Steps and Sugarloaf at the best times to avoid clouds and get the best views. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely safe and cared for throughout the day. He also took incredible photos of us, knowing exactly how to get the best angles even in busy spots. It made such a difference having a guide who understands photography and truly looks out for his guests. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rio.

Fantastic Tour – Beautiful Views and a Great Guide - I highly recommend this tour without hesitation! Our driver, Marcos, picked us up directly from our hotel in the morning, which we really appreciated since it was located outside the city. Even though Marcos didn’t speak English and we didn’t speak Portuguese, we managed to understand each other just fine. He was very kind and thoughtful — on the way back, he even bought us some local treats because the return trip took longer due to roadwork. We were a small group of five, which we truly enjoyed. Our guide, Ederson, was friendly, welcoming, and very attentive. He gave clear explanations about each attraction and made sure everyone felt comfortable. The tour description mentioned a “light breakfast,” but we actually had plenty to eat: coffee, bread, and a bag prepared for each of us with several typical Brazilian foods. There were quite a lot of people at Mirante Dona Marta, even early in the morning. At first, it was hard to take pictures ourselves because of the crowd. However, thanks to our guide Ederson, we left with many beautiful photos. He kindly offered to take them for us and knew exactly how and where to get the best shots — the same at Christ Rédempteur. We arrived very early (right at opening time) so we were among the first visitors to enter, despite the huge number of people there.

Amazing Sunrise Experience - I highly recommend doing this tour, Ederson was the best guide. He takes the best pictures and made sure we were one of the first visitors at Christ the redeemer.

Superbly organized and hosted tour - Wow! What a wonderful birthday experience - a beautiful sunrise at one of Rio's best viewpoints - Dona Marta. We were a small ladies group - myself, a solo traveller from the UK, and 2 lovely Spanish ladies. Our guide Ederson was a superb host - he picked us up early at our respective hotels, made us feel very safe while driving trhough Rio at such an early hour of the day and was very friendly and knowledgeable in both English and Spanish. We got to the lookout in good time and Ederson was our personal photographer - he knows the best spots and angles to get those beautiful Instagram pictures! He'd also prepared a light breakfast basket for us so we could have a coffee and a snack before heading onwards to Christ Redeemer. We were among the first to arrive at the statue, and could enjoy the views, take pictures before the crowds. Fun fact: the first group through the gate is greeted by a priest, a short prayer and given a blessing (after which the priest packs up and goes about his daily business elsewhere). All in all an unforgettably wonderful experience. Please remember that your guide is not a weather controller, be kind, check the weather report and hope for the best - we got a beautiful sunrise for about 20mins, then clouds rolled in, then we had a bit of blue skies at Christ Redeemer, and after that it got windy and cloudy again.

Amazing sunrise - A great experience - the sunrise was amazing, and getting to Christ the Redeemer early meant a slightly smaller crowd. Myllena was a great guide

Sunrise - Dona Marta - It's very beautiful. It's beautiful, watching the sunrise. Fight the place! But it is worth visiting and for those who like the sunrise, in various places, it is a good request.

Had a great time during... - Had a great time during this tour! Myllena was a great guide! Since my tour group was small, we were all able to connect on a personal level and it literally felt like I was on a day trip with friends. My pick up time was around 5:15am. We didn’t get to see the complete sunrise due to the clouds and fog, but nonetheless the view at Dona Marta was amazing. We got to see and take pictures with Cristo Redentor just in time as well. I was dropped off at my hotel at 9am which gave me plenty of time to venture out at other places around Rio. Highly recommend this tour!

Incredible excursion - We loved the excursion it was amazing!!! with a great view. thank you to our guides.

Amazing spots but be prepared for the crowd. - You cant leave Rio without going to Dona Marta & Christ the Redeemer. Both are breathtaking. Be prepared to compete for photo spots since there will be a crowd all the time. Our guide Mylenna was very helpful, especially in taking our photos.
