Tour guide in Rio De Janeiro Murillo P.

I was born in Rio de Janeiro but moved to the Netherlands when I was three years old. After spending eight years there, I returned to Rio, where I have lived since 2000, in the heart of the city. Growing up abroad instilled in me a special connection with foreigners and tourists visiting Rio. I’ve always enjoyed showcasing the unique activities and lesser-known spots that highlight our vibrant culture. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Business and have worked in various sectors, including finance, HR, and project management, until 2023. Despite my professional background, my passion has always been tourism. In 2018, I seized the opportunity to combine my love for food and tourism by creating a Bar Food Tour. This venture started as a hobby but grew into a full-time pursuit by 2023, allowing me to leave my traditional job behind. Since then, I’ve launched several projects, including a tour about Copacabana's history and private city tours with a focus on culinary experiences. My goal is to introduce visitors to the best local spots, offering a deeper understanding of our local customs and the places that make Rio de Janeiro special for its residents.
