Fun personalized tour of Rio
Published on Mar, 2025
This was a great tour and fun way to see the entire city of Rio. The ebikes are easy to use and you will travel at a comfortable pace. Bruno is a well informed guide and helped answer any questions we had. He's super friendly and helpful and even invited us to hangout with his friends after. I highly recommend this tour if you want a personalized introduction to Rio de Janeiro with a fun guide.
Breathtaking views and History
Published on Feb, 2025
If you want to get away from the crowds and explore the Rio in a unique way I would recommend taking this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable, professional, and passionate. The tour started off with a bit of history and ended with the best views in Rio. I would highly recommend.
Rio on sunday

One of the best things I’ve done in Rio so far. We covered a lot of Rio in just 3 hours and had great scenery and interactive experiences along the way. Bruno is a fantastic guy, very chill and knowledgeable and enjoyed the ride a lot
E-bike tour with Buno
Published on Jan, 2025
Bruno gave us a great private e-bike tour. He was very patient and accommodating. The tour went from a Copacabana neighborhood and ended in downtown Rio de Janeiro. He pointed out many important landmarks.
He keeps you with him as you negotiate the traffic and crowds. For the most part you are on bike paths but occasionally you go on streets so be aware.
All in all, I would recommend this tour with Bruno.
Amazing experience!
Published on Jan, 2025
This bike tour was an absolutely wonderful experience! Our guide was incredibly attentive and took us to parts of Rio de Janeiro I had never explored before, despite having visited the city many times. He provided fascinating insights into the early Portuguese colonization of Rio and shared fascinating recent discoveries about the city's history of slavery. We enjoyed a scenic ride along the beautiful coastline and concluded the tour at the breathtaking Ipanema Beach. I highly recommend this experience to everyone, and I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!
