This is the shortlist we’d hand a friend: the 5 photography sessions worth booking in Rio, each with its price, its traveller verdict, and the one thing to know before you commit.
Fly above Niterói clouds with a certified instructor, get GoPro photos and a downloadable flight video, and enjoy Rio from the air.
“It was really nice, pepe was very friendly and although we had to fly from a different ramp and the wind conditions were not optimal, it was still a great experience!”
Sunrise photos at Mirante Dona Marta from a small group tour. Hotel pickup, expert shots on your phone, and a cloud-friendly stair climb.
“An inexpensive uber ride can get you to this site for sunrise photos with reliable timing. Event was for 4:30am start time but guide changes had him arrive after sunrise.”
Early 6 a.m. trek to Pedra do Telégrafo and Grumari Beach, guided by Alessandra with photo help. Small group. $73.
“Great experience! Alê is very attentive, took care of the group with great affection and even took beautiful photos!”
Private photo day in Rio with a photographer-guide, early Christ access, Dona Marta views, Selarón Steps, and Sugarloaf cable car.
“Our guide was amazing. She knew all the best spots, queues, and photo angles at Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf, Selarón Steps, and more. Multi-Lingual and Efficient. To top things off we had a surprise poolside breakfast and even a quick cachaça tasting stop, which made the day feel extra special. Bring a change of clothes and just show up ready to have fun, because everything else is taken care of. Highly recommend!”
A private 4-hour Rio Photo Tour with a licensed photographer guide, South Zone pickup, 100 edited photos, and a route tailored to your interests.
“I loved this tour and would 100% recommend to anyone visiting Rio who wants to capture some good memories. Renata allowed me to choose which locations I wanted to take pictures and was quick with having the photos edited. I received them the next day. for anyone looking for a well informed tour of Rio whilst also being able to capture their experience, this tour is a must!”
