      The trip exceeded every expectation we had. My husband and I took the private tour and were not sure what to expect. We are glad to report that the trip was amazing. Alvaro, our tour guide, contacted us before the tour to understand what we are hoping for. We were glad to meet him in person at the beginning of the tour. He is intelligent, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely kind-hearted Rio born and raised. He speaks excellent English, which is surprisingly difficult to find in Rio and made it easy to have thoughtful conversations throughout the day. From the moment we met him, he made us feel like family, and that warmth stayed with us throughout the experience. He truly made our trip unforgettable. What set Alvaro apart was not only his vast knowledge, but also his ability to tailor the experience to what we wished.. He provided an outstanding introduction to Brazil—its history, politics, economy, culture, and society. Having a local explain both the country’s beauty and its challenges gave us a depth of understanding that no guidebook could offer. It transformed our visit to Rio de Janeiro from simply seeing beautiful sights into developing understanding of the place and its people. I also have a disability, and Alvaro thoughtfully adapted the itinerary so I could comfortably enjoy the Tijuca Forest. Thanks to his flexibility and planning, I was able to experience the breathtaking rainforest, stunning waterfalls, and spectacular viewpoints without feeling limited. This tour was the highlight of our time in Rio de Janeiro. If you have the opportunity to tour with Alvaro, don’t hesitate. You’ll come away with unforgettable memories and a far richer appreciation of Brazil.

      Dear Ayelet, thanks a lot for all these kind words, can't say enough how meaninful they are to me. As you know, this lifestyle was challenging after quitting the corporate world and I feel that I made the right choice when I meet and spend unforgetable moments with nice people like you both S2

      The distinguishing characteristic of this experience is that the tour guide is delightfully effective in helping the traveler to actually feel as if you’re part of the environment.
