Reliable Fun Informative - Marco did a fantastic architecture tour of Rio focusing on (but not only) Oscar Niemeyer. He did the nice surprise to bring us to the top of Niteroi where we saw an amazing sunset.

Great Tour and Wonderful Guidance - We hired Marco B. to see the buildings designed by Oscar Niemeyer. We started the day at the Caminho Niemeyer and saw several of Niemeyer's creations. Marco then took us up to the city park with magnificent vistas of Rio. Lucky for us, we discovered that Marco had been a hotel concierge and he made reservations for lunch and dinner for us that were the best meals of our trip.

An amazing way to discover Brazil architectural history - We had a fantastic time with Marco yesterday doing the Oscar Niemeyer tour. He went above and beyond to give us the best possible experience in Rio by also giving us a lot of very useful cues on where to go in Rio for Arts and food etc... We would definitely book him again next time we are here for an extended tour of Rio or maybe go to Petropolis. Thanks a lot Marco!
