For those who like history and to know in depth I super recommend.

It was a historical, cultural, gastronomic and boat tour overlooking Fiscal Island. It was wonderful. My guide, Camila Feher, is fantastic, friendly, cult and understands everything from Rio de Janeiro. Spectacle, note 1000.

Fiscale Adventure

Camila met me promptly at the designated meeting point! I was surprised to learn I was the only person on the tour! It was a very personalized and memorable experience from start to finish! She peppered me with interesting and fun facts about geography, history, culture, gastronomy, etc! She was a consummate professional and very accommodating throughout our day together! I enjoyed the day in Rio very, very much!

The Carioca is sensational...back to joy and well being.

Who lives in Rio de Janeiro...never forget...Rio with all its weak points of violence... does not exceed all that the city has to offer... really is the wonderful city.

Best experience ever.

Camilla was a great guide. Super polite, very knowledgeable, going above and beyond with excellent tips about restaurants, and other places in Rio worth checking out. We travel extensively, and we don't hesitate to state that Camilla is one of the best guides we have had the pleasure to meet.
