“Great tour to start your trip to Rio. Short walk to different bars, all with different vibes and great food. Variety of food and drinks, not everything is fried and I really appreciated that. I Recommend to do it when you arrive to Rio because the tour guide will give you a lot of good information and recommendations for the rest of your trip. It was a small group so you’ll have opportunity to talk with everyone, make friends and experience other cultures. The tour guide Murillo is great! He gives you the locals experience and talks about the history of the city and Brazilian culture in a fun way…”

“We had an unforgettable time on the tour with Vini! The mix of rooftop views, hidden gems, and diverse bars made it an incredible experience. Each stop had its own unique charm, whether it was savoring craft cocktails under the stars, enjoying live music in an upbeat venue, or enjoying some local food. The variety was amazing, and we felt like we got a true taste of São Paulo's nightlife scene. Cheers to an incredible guide and an unforgettable night!”
