Amazing experience!  Francisco speaks fluent English and French, which was much appreciated.  I had the chance to see everything I wanted and benefit from many explanations to expand my knowledge of Rio de Janeiro.  Thank you Francisco for your kindness and patience!  I loved the tour and wish to come back for more!

Anyone can show you where the beaches and great restaurants are in this beautiful city BUT if you want to learn about Rio ... her amazing people, the incredible culture and all of the tucked away "gems" that make up this beautiful city then spend the day with Fransisco.  You will return wanting to relocate and make Rio your home!   

Thanks to Francisco's amazing knowledge and familiarity with Rio, we feel we 'did' Rio in 24 hours! Francisco took us to all the hidden (and not so hidden) gems of the city all the while explaining the history and stories of each location. We would not hesitate to contact Francisco again should we be lucky enough to return to this wonderful city. He was great company and happy to tailor the day to our needs and interests. He's your man in Rio!
