The best downtown walking tour - I had an incredible experience on Rio's Downtown Walking Tour with Camila as our guide. Starting at the Museum of Tomorrow, Camila's warm welcome made us feel like old friends. Kobra's Mural was a visual masterpiece, and Camila's explanations added depth to its significance. As we walked along Avenida Rio Branco, Camila's historical insights made the architecture come alive. São Bento Monastery, Candelária Church, and other landmarks were enriched by Camila's storytelling. Confeitaria Colombo provided a delicious ending to our tour. Camila's passion and expertise made this tour unforgettable.

Not much to see - I don’t feel it was worth the time. I wouldn’t do it again. The guide was not fluent in English and not sure of where she wanted to go
