Hi, I'm Carlos. I'm a private guide and boat skipper, and it's a privilege to share the wonders of Brazil with visitors. I was born and raised right here in Florianópolis, where my tourism company is based. My goal is to use my local knowledge to help you experience this incredible region. I believe the best way to travel is to connect with the local culture—from the food to the history and the lifestyle. That’s why I focus on creating small, personalized tours. It’s a chance for us to explore together and for me to share some of the things that make this place so special. I'm often asked about the most beautiful places, and I'm fortunate to know some truly unique spots that feel like they're from a movie. I enjoy guiding people to these cinematic landscapes, where you can find paradisiacal beaches and stunning views that are off the typical tourist path. I've been lucky enough to receive hundreds of five-star reviews on various tourism platforms. That encouragement drives me to keep sharing the beauty of Brazil. If you're looking for an authentic trip filled with memorable moments, I would be happy to help you plan your visit.
