I was travelling to Rio alone and thought it would be a good idea to book Marcelo to show me the local bars. It was great to have someone to take me to the best known places and the places that only the locals know. Marcelo is such a nice guy that within minutes it felt like you were embarking on a night out with a friend. I enjoyed Marcelo's company so much that I booked him to take me on a number of daytime tours including a visit to a favela and sugarloaf. Marcelo knows Rio really well and we managed to fit lots in and see more than I'd expected on each tour. He can give you a great insight into Brazilian history and culture and was always totally reliable and fun. I'll definitely be giving him a call if I'm lucky enough to go back to Rio.
