Matilde was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. She was also considerate in having me take a coffee and pastry break. Was very impressed by the beauty of Rio after this tour. Thanks Matilde!

This tour was absolutely amazing! Leonardo from Carioca Tropical was friendly, knowledgeable and passionate about the city he lives in. We navigated the streets of downtown Rio, from churches to tmonuments to places of interest and learned a great deal about the people and history of Rio and Brazil
