Beautiful - It was a long journey but Luiz made sure the drive safe and comfortable. Paraty is beautiful and a lot of buildings kept intact with history, the only thing is raining otherwise we would enjoyed even more.

Lovely day out of Rio - A delightful day to experience the green coast of Rio. You really get a different feel of Brazil outside of the city. The Cachasa distillery was a lovely informative part of the tour. (Tip: buy the chocolate liquer!). The short hike to the waterfall is a great nature experience and many interesting birds were spotted. Dario was a consummate professional with a warm friendly manner. He facilitated the tour perfectly and is a safe, patient driver. The drive is long, but absolutely worth it.
