Very good stay. The room I booked had 1 double bed and 1 single bed, the bathroom was very clean with a great, hot shower, there's a mini-fridge, and the air conditioning is excellent. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast is excellent, they even have pudding, and it's also close to everything (bar, Lapa, Glória market, bakery, subway, pharmacy, etc.). It met my needs very well.

We had an incredible experience touring Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain with JAL. Everything was well-organized from start to finish, making it easy to enjoy two of Rio’s most iconic landmarks. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the timing of the tour allowed us to make the most of each stop. These attractions are consistently rated among the top experiences in Rio by travelers.  JAL was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, sharing interesting information about the city and making sure everyone was comfortable throughout the day. We never felt rushed, and the entire experience was smooth and enjoyable. If you’re visiting Rio de Janeiro and want a hassle-free way to see Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf Mountain, I highly recommend booking a tour with JAL. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Great introduction to Tijuca Forest. Our guide Lucas was very knowledgeable about the plants ans animals there, so he made the trip really enjoyable ! Unfortunately for us, we didn't see many wildlife there, but the cave and waterfall made it worthwhile !

Pretty good experience. Worth taking this tour since Ubers don't go upto cristo redentor, and they overcharge you.

Had an amazing trip with Lucianna our tour guide. She was great on explaining every single thing. She also made us try some local delicacies like the cheese bread and guarana drink! As my parents was a very religious catholic, she even brought us to beautiful churces in Sta Teresa and even managed to attend a small mass. We had also a lucky opportunity to experience the singing of a band in the escadaria selaron whilst we were there. Such an amazing experience. Highly recommended! Obrigado Brazil!

I went on a Rio day tour, but the weather really didn't cooperate. 😭 It was raining, and the fog was so thick that I could barely see Christ the Redeemer or Sugarloaf Mountain. I was so disappointed I couldn't get any good photos, but despite that, this tour was satisfying purely thanks to our guide, Letícia! The gloomy weather could have dampened our spirits, but Letícia continuously uplifted us with her uniquely bright energy. She enriched the obscured views with fascinating history and behind-the-scenes stories, and she even showed the flexibility to adjust our itinerary to indoor spots or charming cafes to escape the rain. Although I didn't get to see Rio's magnificent views, meeting such an excellent guide as Letícia left me with truly warm and enjoyable memories. I highly recommend Guide Letícia! ♥️

Plan ahead so you don’t miss out

1 daysLast-minute

What to know before visiting Rio de Janeiro

Quick snapshot of Rio de Janeiro’s offerings

Rio de Janeiro is a city of vivid outdoor attractions, guided tours and cultural experiences, with Tours, Museums and Cultural experiences leading Klook bookings. Demand rises and falls through the year, with a pronounced mid‑year busy period and quieter pockets elsewhere.

Best times to visit and how prices move

Klook data show demand peaks in July and hits a trough in August. Prices move unevenly: they’re typically highest around April and dip to their lowest in December, while many months around the mid‑year peak keep prices similar to one another. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in December or in the trough month; for full‑on peak atmosphere and activity, July is the busiest. Note that price and demand don’t perfectly match here—April can be among the priciest without being the busiest.

Tips for travellers from Singapore

Most travellers from Singapore book a few days ahead, with a typical lead time of about three days, and many last‑minute options available a day out. If you’re travelling in the July peak, plan and lock in popular tours a few weeks earlier to avoid missing out; for off‑peak visits you can be more spontaneous and still find choices on Klook.
