Amazing way to see Rio. Authentic and local experience with all the must see classics. Felt like I was visiting a friend.

I wasn’t planning to visit Rio, but after hearing Thiago’s passion, I signed up. Experiencing the city through a local who truly loves it made it unforgettable. The trip was packed but never felt rushed—we saw the iconic landmarks, ate at Thiago’s favorite spots, and even danced samba at Pedra do Sal, a highlight! Highly recommend, one of my best trips with RY!
