Obrigado pelo feedback 🙂
Gabriella was the beer tour guide I had in Brazil - very knowledgeable, engaged and just super nice to be around. If you plan on exploring Rio, I could not recommend her enough!!! What a splendid experience!!!
Very interesting and enriching the Walking tour that addressed the history of the enslaved in Rio, the community known as Little Africa and the Stone of Salt. The guide Rafael made all the difference to make the experience interesting and lightweight despite the theme. Super indicate the walk.
It was an important and informative experience. Our guide is one level higher for the historical information you recreated and the clarity with which you expressed yourself.
Wonderful and necessary! We went to the tour with a friend from the United States, and took the tour in English with the guide Carolina. Besides the sympathy of the guide, the information, the knowledge contained in the tour is invaluable! The importance of knowing the history of samba, together with the resistance of the black people, and of never ceasing to talk about slavery - more than ever - is huge... And this tour is a goldmine of knowledge and consciousness. ☰
