Hi I'm Val, I have been working in the travel business since 2001. For 14 years I lived in USA and worked mainly introducing North America, between Canada and USA, to Brazilian tourists. Some years later I moved to France where I started targeting the American and Canadian markets as well as the Brazilian tourists that were visiting Europe. I'm back in Brazil since 2001 since then I have been working as an official tour guide in Rio de Janeiro. It is really a privilege for me to have this job and the chance to show visitors the wonders of Rio de Janeiro, guiding and disclosing this enchanting city with all its history, traditions, culture and of course, natural beauties. All those years spent abroad helped me having a very good understanding of my clients expectations. I try to meet the needs of each customer tailoring the tours according to the interests always focusing in quality, comfort and security. Thank you for choosing the marvelous city of Rio de Janeiro as your destination! It will be my pleasure to show you around!

Overview of your Rio De Janeiro tour

Burle Marx was a Brazillian landscape designer involved in many arts activities. Visting his house is not just a beautiful garden, but we find many of his Brazilian art collection, the tablecloth painted by him for his 80 years old birthday party, the piano he used to play, his shell collection and many of his pans used by him during his friends gatherings, This visit is on the west side of Rio where we drive by the nature reservation, a suggestion is stopping along the way for either a "moqueca" or simple tapas with its outstanding view.

Your Rio De Janeiro tour itinerary

The tour itinerary will be the following: - We'll ride along the nature reserve towards Burle Marx farm house. - Getting there we'll have about one and a half hour visit walking around the former landscape designer projects, to his farm house, observe a large collection of Brazilian art. - Leaving the house, we'll start returning and suggesting restaurants along that area! Please send me a message if you would like to customize this tour.
