Hello,
my name is Tiago Coimbra Reis and I'm here to show you Rio de Janeiro.
As a native Carioca I can take you to visit many emblematic locations of the city like, the Pão de Açúcar, and places tourists rarely get to see, like Funkparties. Whomever wants to really get to know Rio, apart from the carnival or Copacabana beach, can experience: samba in the historic neighborhood of Lapa, antiques in Lavradio and traditional cuisine in Santa Teresa. You'll experience how nature and culture harmonize, making Rio a singular region.
Apart of the urban forests and beaches of the Carioca oceanline, the architecture, the music and the design are part of the many attractive things Rio has to offer. Come with time available so you can get to know the surrounding area: the beautiful bays and beaches of Bahia, Gold Street in Parati and the coffee plantations of Mina Gerais.
It doesn't matter if you don't have much time since as a certified guide I can give you immediate access to places such as the cable railway at Pão de Açúcar and the Modern Museum of Art, saving you time you'd otherwise spend waiting in lines.
Tell me what you want to see on your trip to Rio and I'll be able to set up a tour especially organized for your particular interests and schedules. Also, with the security and comfort of a car you'll feel like a true resident, I can even pick you up at the airport if you'd prefer.
Finally, I take this opportunity to present my personal travel experience. I've had the chance to travel to many countries around the world and live in some both in South America and in Europe, all of which, I believe gives me insight into what is important to a traveler. Other than Portuguese, I speak English, German and Spanish.
