What to do and see in Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro (RJ): The Best Taxis & Shuttles

August 15, 2021 Renato Branum

With its plentiful beaches, dramatic mountains, and backdrop of samba and bossa nova rhythms, it's easy to fall in love with Rio de Janeiro. Made famous in song, Ipanema Beach is still the place to stroll, sunbathe, and be seen. The largest Art Deco statue in the world, Christ the Redeemer, beckons visitors to Corcovado Mountain. Rio’s annual Carnaval celebrations are bacchanalian extravaganzas of feasting, music, dance, and costumed revelry.

I really cannot praise Felipe enough for his service throughout our 6 day trip through Brazil. He was communicative, professional and truly compassionate. Not only did he pick us up and drop us off to all of our destinations on time, but he even left his house at 5 am and waited in 3 hours of traffic to take us from Buzios to Rio De Janeiro during Carnival. Throughout all the rides we always had a great conversation, stopped for snacks if needed, and even served as an interpreter when we were speaking with locals. All in all, I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a bit more security or a simplified transport from place to place across Rio. Thank you so much for making Rio feel like a home away from home!

Emmanuel took care of all my transportation needs and more during my 4 day trip to Rio. As a female solo traveller, I always felt comfortable in his company and he would always ensure that I was safe and well taken care of upon drop-off at my excursions. When I went hang gliding, he made himself available all morning to wait for the conditions to permit flight; he was especially helpful with translating for me and even recorded a video of me landing, which was a nice surprise. Throughout my stay, he coordinated with my travel agent and tour agencies and knew my travel itinerary better than I did, so I could fully relax and not have to worry about the details of my bookings. I will definitely return to Rio and will be sure to book a tour with Emmanuel again.

Taxi driver , guide and fotografer with an deep histórical knoladg about the Rio de Janeiro city .

Reviewed By S2625MSpaulh

I was originally connected to Alexandre through a work trip to Rio counting on him for local transport. But all work and no play while in Rio would have been a real disappointment and on my last day I was able to slip out early for a great afternoon with Alexandre touring Urca and Sugar Loaf. Throughout the week and especially on my last day I quickly learned that Alexandre is a fountain of local knowledge and always looking out for his guests' interests. Efficient, fair, and very personable, Alexandre is a great chauffeur, tour guide, and even a photographer all rolled into one. Highly recommended for personal and professional trips to Rio.
