Awesome Experience
Dream_B, Jan 2024
I couldn't have picked a better tour guide than Fabio! He was very knowledgeable of the area and history of our attractions. He also seemed like he loved what he does and working with people, very happy individual like most brasileiros that I have met on vacation here. Fabio spoke English well and I could tell that he had many years of tourism experience, never a dull moment for sure. Thank you so much Fabio, Matt

Great tour with Fabio, he showed us incredible places. He was able to change the pick-up location to suit us. We recommend this tour.
Outstanding afternoon tour
A_T, Feb 2023
Our tour was brought to life by our driver/guide Fabio, who even arrived to collect us exactly on time. We were able to see parts of Rio's surrounding that you couldn't get to in a bus. Fabio knew so much and gave us very interesting info as we drove through the rain forest (with monkeys) and eventually to the Botanical Garden. Would definitely recommend the tour if you get Fabio.

Thanks a lot for the review. All the best from Rio.
Great Day Trip to Tijuca and Botanical Garden!
Marion_P, Nov 2019
We booked this private tour for 6 people. The driver and guide Fabio were waiting for us. We went to two very nice stops in the Tijuca forest. Unfortunately on our way back to the Botanical Gardens, we got stuck for an hour in a traffic jam due to an accident in the tunnel. Fabio more than made up for this delay by extending the tour and escorting us through the Botanical Gardens. He wanted to make sure we were satisfied with the service. This was a great way to spend our final afternoon in Rio. I definitely recommend this company.

Hi Marion, Thanks a lot for your review. We had an amazing afternoon in Botanical Garden. My goal is to have all our costumers satisfied with my services. Big hugs from Rio. Fabio
