Tour Guide & Visual Artist in Rio de Janeiro I’m passionate about my city, and my mission is to help you fall in love with Rio de Janeiro too! I offer more than just tours – I curate unique experiences that dive into Rio’s rich tapestry of art, history, gastronomy, nature, traditions, crafts, Afro-Brazilian culture, architecture, and photography. While I showcase the must-see landmarks, I also reveal hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path spots that only a local can introduce you to. Think of me as a friend who takes you on a journey through her favorite places! About Me: Born in Rio de Janeiro, I moved to Italy at age 10 and lived there until 2013. I earned my degree in "Science of Tourism" from La Sapienza University in Rome, and my love for travel has taken me to live in cities like London, Lugano, Milan, Barcelona, and New York. Now back in my homeland, I’m rediscovering my roots and feel incredibly blessed to share this beautiful city with you. After the pandemic, I worked as Marketing Director at Riotur (Rio de Janeiro Tourism Company) for three years (until June 2024), where I contributed to promoting Rio as a top global destination. This role further fueled my passion for connecting people with the beauty and culture of Rio. As a licensed Tour Guide and Sustainable Tourism Adviser, I run my own business offering private, tailor-made tours. Together, we'll explore Rio’s best spots – from breathtaking views and artistic hubs to hidden secrets and local culture. Whether you're into architecture, history, or music, I’ll ensure your visit is truly unforgettable! Languages I Speak: Italian English Portuguese Spanish What are you waiting for? Come discover Rio, and let’s turn your trip into an unforgettable experience!

We LOVED Tati! She was a joy to spend the day with. Made everything easier ahead of time by purchasing skip the line tickets to Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf. Had a great local lunch - and yes, her suggestion that the shrimp was the best was indeed correct! Also gave us a fantastic dinner suggestion at a place she takes her mom to - we love eating with the locals! Her knowledge was top notch on all the big sites and taking us to the local areas and just walking around seeing the Santa Teresa area was fun. So artistic and vibrant. Cant recommend her as a guide any more than my wife and I do. She was wonderful.

We spent two wonderful days with Tatiane, exploring and getting to know Rio. She was a fantastic guide that not only loves the city but loves guiding. Highly recommended.

Tati was amazing! She knew the best tricks for avoiding long lines or crowded areas. She had really interesting stories and facts about Rio. We learned and saw so much during our day together. She picked us up at our hotel and drove us around in her personal car which was very new and had great air conditioning (needed on such a hot day). We loved Tati so much that we booked a second tour with her to the rainforest! Overall, we had a great experience!

Tati is an absolutely top-notch guide. Not an exaggeration, not a cliche. She listened to our large group’s wants before we started the tour and also responded as she learned more about us, catering the experience midday to finish our tour in a perfect way. All this while giving us a beautiful and illuminating experience of her home city. Visiting Rio was more of a “background” activity for our group as we moved onto an ecotour. Tati made us truly engage with the city. We met wonderful people, including Tati herself. Highly recommend her services to anyone visiting Rio no matter what experience you crave. Thank you, Tati!!
