Extremely competent tour guide! - Months before our group was scheduled to arrive in Rio, I began searching for a tour guide who would be able to take all 45 of us. My search seemed fruitless until I found Pati's description of her tours that made me think she'd be willing to work with us. Well, she went above and beyond our expectations. We didn't have time to do the full day tour so she worked it out so that we could do as much as possible within our time limits. She made it all so easy, buying our entrance tickets to Christ Redeemer and Sugarloaf, making our reservations for lunch at a great restaurant, and renting a clean, comfortable bus to get us around. Initially we thought we'd have to remove Sugarloaf from the roster, but, later, when we decided to add it back in, she didn't complain. She just made it happen. We appreciated her flexibility and her attentiveness to our wishes. Highly recommended.

Fabulous guide, excellent tailor made itinerary! - Patricia was a fantastic guide. We managed to see a lot of things in a short time as our time was limited in Rio. She was very informative and got us around Rio safely. She also arranged a football match for us with one of her contacts which we loved. We highly recommend her for showing you Rio. The best!

Glorious! - Our tour guide, Pati, was phenomenal. She did an amazing job keeping our large group together and moving us along while also giving us time to soak in the experience of what we were seeing. I highly recommend the tour and especially Pati as a guide!

The best of Rio with a private guide - We really had a wonderful experience with Patricia, who assured our schedule took us to the least busy places for the day. She had many great historical stories and we felt very happy to learn of these amazing cultural sites from her. When we come back I’d absolutely ask for her to be our private guide to visit more of Rio! We felt very safe and enjoyed a day of sightseeing that felt unique and personal. 10 out of 10 stars

Do yourself a favor and book with Lotus Rio Tours! The best way to see the city! - Touring Rio with Patricia was the best! She was very professional and so knowledgeable. I loved the insights she provided at each site and as we drove around the city. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the tour. Since I was traveling solo, I appreciated that she would take photos of me in the places we visited. Touring with Patricia was a highlight of my trip and I’m so grateful to have learned about the city from a local expert!

See Rio de Janeiro with the best guide - Our two day tour in Rio with Patricia was excellent! We saw all the sights we hoped to see and more! Patricia’s knowledge helped us to enjoy a full picture of Rio - its sites, the people, the food, the beaches, architecture and nature. Our expectations were exceeded and we highly recommend visiting Rio with Patricia.
