My daughter and I had a wonderful day exploring Rio, courtesy of Ederson and Trip in Rio Tours!  Ederson was very helpful, very knowledgeable flexible, and professional.  With his guidance, we were able to customize our day, and focus on the sites and areas of the City that suited us.  He definitely knows the best spots for photos, and he helped us capture those photo opportunities thanks to his great eye! 

I've been very lucky to travel a lot of the World, and I can honestly say our tour with Ederson was one of the best things I've ever done while travelling.

Ederson was very informative and gave us a great tour, of both Rio's main tourist spots, as well as some more hidden areas. At the end of the day, we felt we had built a real sense for the real authentic Rio, and this made the tour extremely fulfilling and worthwhile.

He was great company and we really enjoyed our day with Ederson - this is a day we will always remember and be grateful for.

Ederson showed us Rio in one day in his car and took us to the main attractions. We started at the cruiseterminal and went to Christ the Redeemer (thanks to him we were in the train in a few minutes and did not have to wait). Afterwards he showed us the older quarters and we had a coffeestop with and between the Brazilians. Next stops: Copacabana en Ipanema and a all you can eat lunch Brazilian way: with lots of meat. At the end of the day he went to the airport with him and flew back to Europe.

Ederson speaks English fluently, can tell interesting facts, knows Rio very well,  is a good and safe driver and above all a sympathatic man.   

The best choice we have made in brazil so far!! 

Ederson is a sweet person! He made sure we see the best of Rio and took us to the main places and explained everything to us! We had so much fun and we laughed so much with him! He knows rio very well!! If you are coming to rio, this is your guys! He is very joinful, funny and full of good energy! He made our day in rio exceptional!! Thanks Ederson!!!!

 Our tour of Rio with Ederson was a highlight of our trip to Brazil.I can't imagine a better way to experience Rio than through Ederson's tour.  He is knowledgeable, (a historian disguised as a guide!), passionate, energetic, and flexible. This was our first trip to Brazil. I have family there and had very specific things I wanted to see.  A great uncle of mine was a well-known Brazilian artist. I am also related to a well-known family in Brazil. I wanted to understand more about my family. Ederson responded quickly to our request for a tour. He was one of only two tour guides who actually mentioned these people in their tour proposals. Ederson clearly did his research and addressed my requests in his proposal. He followed through, he was prompt and organized. We had some wonderful conversation throughout the day about art and about culture as related to my family. We had a great day!!My husband was equally impressed with Ederson's proposal and with his tour.  We wouldn't hesitate to book another tour with Ederson next time we visit Rio!
