There are no words to describe the outstanding experience we had thanks to Newton, the best guide ever. It was so much information about Brazilian royal history (and more) that we were afraid it could be an exam at the end of the tour!! Lol.
We highly recommend this tour. It was totally stress free, it felt like visiting with a local family member.
We loved it We are looking to go back in the near future and, of course, count on this guided ser ices. Newton the best guide ever!!
