The experience
The transfer runs between Paraty and Rio de Janeiro, with the driver meeting you at your accommodation or at the designated boarding point depending on which departure time you pick. The 5:00 am and 12:30 pm slots include hotel and guesthouse pickup. If you choose 8:30 am, you'll meet the driver at Agencia Paraty Tours in the city center. Sharing the van with other travelers keeps the cost down and means you're not arranging a private car or hunting for a taxi when you land.
The vehicles are new, monitored by satellite in real time, and reviewed weekly for safety and condition. Drivers are trained and qualified, with permanent trilingual support on call every day of the year. Once you book online, the support team contacts you the day before via WhatsApp to confirm details and answer any questions. The journey covers the route between Paraty and Rio de Janeiro, delivering you to whichever airport or hotel neighborhood you're headed to.
