Fantastic tour in Rio! - Wonderful experience in Rio with Bruno as our guide. He arrived early, was extremely knowledgeable, and took us to all the places we wanted to visit. He guided us to avoid big lines and maximized our time. Highly recommend him!

Bruno is the best tour guide in Rio…maybe in the world! - I’ve traveled to many countries (Brazil being my 53rd) and have had many guides. Bruno is so much more than a tour guide. He created the most amazing experience in Rio for my uncle and I. Him and I messaged through WhatsApp weeks before the trip. We came up with an initial itinerary for the 2.5 days in Rio. He was at the airport waiting for me as I walked out of customs - he knew my flight had landed early because he tracked my flight (and my uncle’s). I actually found out from him that my uncle’s flight was delayed. Because of that and the weather the next day, we had to pivot our plans a little bit. But he already had a backup plan and he knew how to navigate changing our Christ Redeemer tickets to a different day. Everything worked out perfect with the itinerary change and we had the best time. He also organized additional activities for us that I requested, like hang gliding and a helicopter tour around Rio (which we were the only two people in the helicopter). These two experiences were bucket list things that I will never forget. Bruno is also just so fun to be around and talk to. He provides just enough information about each place you visit. And we felt super safe with Bruno. It seemed like he knew everyone in Rio 😂 Every place we went, he greeted and chatted with people and that allowed us to get priority in lines, which was a huge help at Christ Redeemer. I can’t say enough good things about him and his tours. Don’t hesitate to book with him - you will not be disappointed!

The best and the coolest tour guide in rio - We had an amazing experience with Bruno. He is knowledgeable, passionate,friendly,cool and most importantly he never lets you down. My family and i had visited many places in recent years with a lot of other tour guides but Bruno was the best of them all till now. The bottom line is he is the perfect choice

Rio tour with Bruno - Such an amazing experience with the best guy ever Bruno. He showed Rio from a very different perspective and explained very interesting details about the city. He is not just a good tour guy, he has got such a great personality, sense of humor and overall a good buddy to hang out with. Highly recommended from me.

Adam C - Boston Bruno Tours, Ran & Owned by Bruno himself, were some of the best tours I've ever had. His passion for guiding others through Rio de Janeiro can only be described as something to be experienced.
My Family & I enjoyed both Bruno's tours & his company while visiting Rio. He knows his business, what to do, what not to do & he won't steer you wrong. From pickup in the morning to events in the evening, Bruno had everything planned ahead of schedule.
Bruno is not only a tour guide, but he's also a local. He knows what the locals do, where the locals go & can show you many things you won't often see if you're being guided by someone just following a book.
There are many things to see & do when visiting Rio & not only can Boston Bruno Tours guide you through the places you wish to go, but it's also an experience unto itself. Do yourself a favor & add a tour by Boston Bruno Tour's to your Rio de Janeiro experiences list.

Trip of a lifetime - Bruno is an exceptional tour guide who provided us with an experience we will never forget. His knowledge of historical and cultural Rio is outstanding. Bruno ensured we got the best, we saw and experienced the best and he gave us his very best. We had great fun too. Bruno has a wicked sense of humour with a very
warm and infectious laugh. It was a great pleasure to meet the big man and I would like to wish him every success as he truly deserves it. Hope to catch up with him in the future and I would highly recommend his services to anyone visiting Rio. Thanks Bruno

Bruno the amazing tour guide - I just got back from an incredible visit to Rio de Janeiro, and let me tell you, it was an experience of a lifetime! Thanks to the amazing Bruno at #Bostonbrunotours, he was the best tour guide ever who brought the history and beauty of Rio to life! The panoramic views were absolutely breathtaking! The sprawling cityscape, the glittering coastline, and the lush greenery surrounding me created a mesmerising sight that I'll never forget. 🌅🌴
If you're planning a trip to Rio, I cannot recommend #Bostonbrunotours enough! Bruno's expertise and passion truly made my visit a magical adventure, . 🙌🎉 Rosemary Lawrence

Unique and seamless! - I live in the UK and came to Brazil to visit family. My sister booked our trip to Rio with Bruno and it didn't disappoint. We saw the whole of Rio in 2 days with the most amazing guide. Bruno is knowledgeable and hysterically funny with energy to burn. He is passionate about Brazil and its history and advised us really well on what to do in our free time to maximise our experience of Rio. I truly appreciated everything he shared with us. I have a very different understanding of Brazil and all its layers. Bruno being fluent in English and Portuguese was an absolute bonus as well as his relationship with the staff at Sugarloaf, Christ the Redeemer, the Libraries and Cathedrals we visited and the Açai frozen treats we ate. Having Tiago drive us everywhere- even back to the airport was an absolute Godsend. I cannot recommend Boston Bruno tours highly enough. Big big love to you Bruno. Thank you
