Spent 4 days in Rio in late May 2013. Booked Marcio online and he proved to be an excellent choice - fluent English, punctual, reliable, knowledgeable, friendly and a very likeable guide. Marcio did the airport transfers and tailored the itinerary to provide a wonderful overview of Rio and Petropolis in just 2 days. Visited Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf... More

It was our first trip to Rio. We decided on a very short notice going to Rio and we were very lucky that Marcio was available guiding us through his city. Marcio took us to insider places where normally no normal tourist would get there. As Marcio knows exactly where to go when to the main attractions we had nearly... More

We had a great tour by Marcio in February. His enthusiasm for Rio comes through and he showed us so much of the city. We stayed in Copacabana and wanted to see as much of the city as we could in one day by car. He organized a great tour for us. We told him that we had spent the... More

Just came back from five nights in Rio and spent three days with Marcio. My wife and I did not know what to expect from Rio - hearing so many mixed comments but Marcio showed us just how wonderful Rio can be! He helped us see so many areas of the city and several we never even knew about. Our... More

We had to disembark our cruise ship before 9 am and had a departing flight home at 9:30 pm. We spent this day touring Rio with Marcio. This just happened to be on a Monday when all the museums are closed, plus there was a terrible storm the previous night with road closings, etc. Marcio worked hard to get us... More

We had a great time with Marcio and really appreciated being looked after and getting to places we wanted to early so that we could get photos etc. He was very punctual and courteous. Full of facts of his city that were interesting to us. We were very pleased we had hired him as we would not have seen all... More

We hired Marcio to take us to and from the airport with a day sightseeing in between. He was there at the airport when we arrived and drove us to our hotel in Copacabana giving us ideas for restaurants nearby. He also told us which parts would be safer to walk in the evening. Next day Marcio was at the... More

Marcio gave us a great day back in February, as well as the regular tourist sites we saw places you would not get on a regular tour, the lunch stop with local Brazilians was memorable. He also helped us get Carnival tickets at short notice which was a bonus.
