A Captivating Tour Through Rio's History and Architecture - Rafael, our guide, was phenomenal! He shared the rich history of Cinelândia and explained the urban redesign that transformed the area in the early 20th century. He pointed out key features of the buildings that replaced the original structures, shedding light on the impact of this transformation on the city's residents. Rafael also gave us great tips about traditional businesses that have been operating for over a century and highlighted fascinating architectural details of landmarks like the cathedral, the municipal theater, the Belas Artes institute, and many more. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and left feeling inspired to explore more of Rio. Thank you, Rafael!

Rio Centro walking tour - Rafa is a nice and knowlegible guy. He knows many about the history of the city. We designed the tour route together and do as we expect.
Only pity is that we did it on a Sunday, most of the spots are closed. I would recommend to do the tour on a weekday so that you can get in those places to see inside.
