Hi and welcome! My name is Alan, I am 44 years old, was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. Having been to 35 countries on all the continents of the world, I have had the opportunity to be in touch with different cultures and languages - and this grew my desire to show my city, Rio de Janeiro, to tourists. I am a licensed tour guide in Rio by EMBRATUR, the Brazilian Institute of Tourism, and have been a private guide in Rio de Janeiro since 2013, having carried out hundreds of private tours of Rio, and have become more and more in love with my city and with my job as a Rio Tour Guide. I am fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese, and have a BA in Social Communication. When I'm not guiding, I enjoy writing, reading, spirituality, hiking and studying languages (I also speak intermediate French). In my private tours, I use a 7-seater car (including me as driver guide), and my motivation is to be flexible and to offer you tailor-made tours, customized to your needs and desires, optimizing your time in Rio. What I look for in each tour is to provide you with an experience that you will remember for many years to come!

Overview of your Rio De Janeiro tour

This tour in the Tijuca Forest is the perfect private tour to visit the best that the 4th biggest urban forest of the world has to offer! Being located in the middle of the city of Rio, the Tijuca Forest has borders with all the 4 zones of Rio. Recovered and back to life, the Forest, which was almost completely deforested for coffee planting, is now the lung of the city of Rio. It has an area of ​​4 thousand hectares, having 95% of this area reforested by D. Pedro II over 13 years, from 1861. This tour can be customized to your needs. I want it to be a special day for you.
