Daniel took great care of us for the three days that we were in Rio. Though our flight was delayed a few hours, he was right there with a welcoming smile when we came out of baggage claim. Over the next three days, Daniel introduced us to amazing sights, showed us all around Rio and gave us wonderful suggestions for evening activities and shopping. Daniel has a great grasp of American language and culture, so was able to make us feel very welcome and explain things in depth. Thanks for a wonderful time!
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Courtney, send all my best wishes to Sam and the kids,come back soon because we still have to go to Downtown

We had Daniel for parts of two days and would adopt him if possible. He was just about the perfect guide. He took us to all the obvious sites but in addition he took us to sites off the beaten track. We learned so much about Brazil, its culture and Rio that we feel we left the country with an exceptional knowledge of its people. Daniel is a treasure.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Ron!!! All the best for you in California!

We were absolutely delighted with the tour that Daniel provided for us throughout the entire day. He exposed us to so many dimensions about RIO. He was helpful, insightful and accommodating. Best tour of the 6 we had in South America! Cheers! Dave & Patrice
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Dave!! I`m glad I was able to show you my city and everything went very well! Kind regards, Daniel

Having taken tours in various countries, I can safely say that Daniel is one of the best guides ANYWHERE. It's so refreshing to meet someone who is thoroughly professional, knowledgeable and genuinely interested in providing the best possible service he can. He knows all of the best spots in the city and gets you there in record time -- something that is not easy to do in Rio. In fact, he was so helpful, I'm going to request a second tour when I come back to Rio next year.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Reviews like yours make me very proud of what I do, and I try to do my best every day, Thank you very much Shirley! Hope to see you soon! King Regards, Daniel

Daniel was great to walk around with. He also had a nice car and drove well to the various locations that we requested. We visited the Santa Teresa area, Sealaron Stairs and had coffee and pastry at the old Colombo restaurant. Daniel was very casual and did not rush us at all. I will use him again on our next visit to Rio.

We enjoyed touring with Daniel! It was overcast and drizzly on the day that we scheduled the tour, and he made the most out of the weather. We got to enjoy and see the lovely city of Rio de Janeiro, and its beautiful neighborhoods, churches and parks! Daniel was very knowledgable, very personable and easy going. Great guide for a great city!
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Julie! I hope you and your daughter had fun at the Hippie market! It was great to meet you 2!

Daniel was an awesome guide. He is a friendly guy with a good sense of humour. One of the things we liked the most about him was his honesty. It was cloudy and rainy the day of our tour. He could have let us go up to sugar loaf and corcovado to spend the day but instead he recommended we came back when it was clear as we would not be able to see anything. He is knowledgable about Rio's history and current events. He left us with a good list of places to visit and tips to help us enjoy our time in Rio.
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: thanks for the review guys, I hope the people at the Sheraton hotel took very good care of you! Get back soon! Daniel

Daniel was great at customizing the tour to our needs. He solicited our interests and then designed the tour to focus on those places. Plus, he added some special "finds" of his own. I would recommend him. He is professional, knowledgeable and flexible. Philadelphia 2011
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thank you Carol!! we all had a nice day together!

Daniel was the best part of our visit to Rio. He took us places we never would have thought to go and his knowledge of the city and its history is amazing. We wish we could have taken him on our entire South American Tour.

Daniel gave us a great tour of Rio de Janeiro. We had already been to Corcovado and Sugarloaf, so he took us to the beaches, the Maracana Soccer Stadium, the Sambodromo and on a walk through downtown Rio. We visited Rio's cultural center, historic churches and stopped for a cafezinio and snack at the beautiful Columbo bakery. Daniel has a vast knowledge of the history and current status of Rio. We thoroughly enjoyed his sense of humor and would highly recommend him as a tour guide! Jean & Ken Brady
TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Hey guys,I hope everything is fine in the beautiful California!thank you for the great day!! ( tell Kenn I'll get a bigger car for him next time! lol! )
