I was in Rio de Janeiro from 11th to 17th July 2025 for a media summit and had two free days. I arranged a one-and-a-half-day tour with Bernard — and it turned out to be one of the best decisions of my trip.
Bernard is a superb planner. In just a short time, he managed to show me all the major attractions of Rio, including hidden gems I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. He is incredibly knowledgeable — whether it’s Brazil’s history, culture, or economy, he shares insights with clarity and enthusiasm.
Warm, pleasant, and highly professional, Bernard made the experience both enjoyable and enriching. His English is excellent, which made communication smooth and easy.
Whether you’re a solo traveler or visiting with a small group, I highly recommend Bernard as your guide in Rio. You’ll be in good hands.
An added bonus - he is a great photographer! He captures the best of me in every picture.
