Camilo was a great host! My mother and I went on this tour on our last day in Rio, and it was great walking through the city and experiencing the culture up close and personal. I would highly recommend this experience for all who are new to the city. Camilo also was kind enough to take beautiful pictures of my mother and I, and provided us with a video, at no additional charge. Thanks so much Camilo!!!
The tour guide spoke good English and very knowledgeable about the African experience here in Rio. Along With a touch of a city tour of Rio. The biggest surprise was visiting the Samba factory where the Artist dreams were actually being built by various professional Artisens for Rio February Festival.
