Julio is an amazing guide. Execllent communicator and has good knowledge of Rio and his country. He adapted the tour to what we wanted to see and how long we wanted to spend at each stop. I am please to give him 5 stars. My 3 adult grandaughters agree and he gave us some amazing restuarant recommendations.
David C.United States
Julio was very friendly and arrived on time. We were two people,but had indicated we might be 4,so he brought a more comfortable car.We were brought to various neighborhoods, some with lovely views.One of the best stops was at a street market, where we could sample some Brazilian street food and stroll through booths with everything from clothing to flea market items.The trip to the Christ the Redeemer statue was done by the train, which is worth the RS 122 cost.

Once you see Julio's smile, you will feel like you are going to have a good day. Clearly, he knows his city well. We went to beautiful, uncrowded sites, learned about places we were passing and ate at an authentic Rio restaurant. Julio shared his knowledge, insights and secrets. We can't imagine a better guide to spend a day with in Rio. Julio has our highest recommendation.
