Started off at Copacabana beach and proceeded to Christ Redemer. Marcio knew all the little tricks to get us an almost private tour of the Mt. Then a tour of the favela, which we recommend, for breakfast. Then downtown for seleron steps and lunch. Finally finished at sugar loaf Mt. Marcio did a great job and was very informative. His...

We visited Rio in April for one week and loved every minute of it! However none of the experience would have been the quite same if we hadn't hired Marcio as our guide. He was friendly, so knowledgeable, prompt and very flexible when the weather wasn't so kind to us, when we'd planned to see Sugarloaf Mountain, Marcio had a... More

I highly recommend touring Rio with Marcio. We spent a day and a half touring with him. He adjusted very easily to the schedule we asked for. He also communicated with us constantly as we were staying in a rental instead of a hotel so it was not as easy to locate us. He is very knowledgeable and readily answered... More

My husband and I had the pleasure of being taken around Rio with Marcio recently and I am so glad that we had him. We were only in Rio for a few short days and Marcio was able to accommodate our schedule. We saw everything we wanted to see while in Rio and more. Marcio was also able to make... More

Marcio is a knowledgeable, engaging, experienced tour guide who shows off his city of Rio with a masterful touch. His English is amazing. He not only knows when and how to access the main attractions, he takes you to other sites tourists usually do not see. We booked him for a full day plus the next morning. We will definitely... More

Being from Canada, and never having been to Rio de Janeiro, we were unfamiliar with how to go about seeing as much of the area as possible in a safe way. My husband and I joined friends of ours from Canada who had been referred to Marcio. What a fantastic experience it turned out to be! Marcio spoke English fluently... More

Two couples spent a really interesting day with Marcio going a little off the beaten path outside of Rio de Janero. Marcio shared what life in Rio is really like. What an amazing tour guide! I hope you all enjoy his company. Thanks Marcio More

Just like to add to all the good comments about Marcio. We booked him, a driver and a mini bus (as there were 8 of us and a one year old) for a full day and a half day. His English is perfect as he spent his university years in the USA, and was very flexible with what we wanted... More

Marcio was an excellent guide who was able to provide lots of information and details about the places we visited. His English is excellent and he was able to translate where necessary for our group of Western Australian farmers. Marcio provided full details for any questions asked from the group. His detail for organisational instructions was clearly articulated and he... More
