Great day trip fro Rio
Kathleen_B, Jan 2024
The entire day was memorable. Fabiana, the guide and Bruno, the driver were wonderful. Great town in a mountain setting outside of Rio. Had a great lunch and an amazing chocolate dessert at a local chocolate shop. Would highly recommend this day trip.
Response from Host, Jan 2024
We are happy that you had a great time. The chocolate shop is something people shouldn't miss. :) Thanks for the review. Take care! :)
