Our guide was excellent, and gave a very detailed tour of the city, and also gave us insight into the culture of Brazil. He gave us an excellent lunch recommendation of a Brazilian barbecue that was fabulous. The sites that we saw were very interesting, and he knew many details, and was very knowledgeable. Thank you, Marcelo!

We had a wonderful day touring the Imperial city with our fantastic guide, Fabiana, and our agile diver, Bruno. This is a private tour that lasts all day and well worth the money. We learned so much about the royal family that ruled Brazil in the 1800s.

Marcelo gave a great tour - we were picked up at the pier, and transported in a comfortable car to Petropolis where we visited the Quitandinha palace, the emperor’s summer home, the cathedral, and the house of seven errors, followed by a great lunch. Marcelo had excellent knowledge of Brazil’s history, the city of Petropolis, and made the day thoroughly enjoyable. For anyone that needs an option to the standard Rio landmarks, this tour is worth the time.

We had a great time. Fabi and Bruno are the best.

It was a perfect opportunity to take advantage of seeing something that’s not the usual tourist attraction.

Thank you

What an amazing tour and our guide Rafael was the best! It was nice to get away from Rio and visit Petropolis for a day. Rafael spoke perfect English. He is a history major so he was a wealth of Brazilian knowledge. His stories were very interesting to listen to. I learned so much about Brazil. I can’t say enough great things about Rafael and this tour.
