Beautiful garden. Our tour guide (Lucia) was very knowledgeable and was able to provide so much more to our experience with her passion for the garden. Ask for her!

I was alone on this guided tour through the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Gardens.
My guide was “Milene” who spoke perfect English.
She was very knowledgeable and helpful with explaining the history of the gardens and the various wonderful trees and plants inside the gardens.
We walked at a leasurely pace so I could enjoy the beauty of the gardens.
Milene helped me by taking many photos of me standing in front (or inside) many of the lovely plants and structures.
Do you want to get away from the fast pace of central Rio? Yes, then go do this peaceful and beautiful tour of the incredibly diverse plants in the Rio de Janeiro Botanical Gardens!!
