“For us - best walking tour guide ever!”

Eduardo's delivery is a perfect blend of interesting and informative. It is rare you find someone who seems so in tuned with their world and surroundings. He effortlessly guides and interacts with locals and tourists while pointing out key POIs and providing background stories that keep your attention. In our case, it was just for 2 of us so he offered to adjust the tour as needed. We originally thought 2 hours would be enough but the next thing we knew, 4 hours had passed and we could have just kept following him around. In addition, as great as the Selaron Steps are, with Eduardo, you will see the charms of Santa Teresa as a whole. Easy to recommend.

“Tour très intéressant et instructif”

En une après midi nous avons pu voir les quartier majeur du centre historique de Rio. Le guide est très sympa et nous a appris beaucoup de chose sur ce quartier. Nous avons réserver ce tour dès notre 1 et jour à Rio ce qui nous a permis d être en immersion, accompagnés et de nous sentir à l aise pour la suite de notre séjour. Nous recommandons à 100%

“Santa Teresa con Eduardo ”

Excelente tour con Eduardo porque parte de la visita a Santa Teresa en tranvía. Con esto se logra facilidad y simpatía de movimiento. El aporte de Eduardo es fundamental porque conoce el barrio en sus mínimos detalles y no tiene inconveniente en detenerse en los aspectos artísticos del paseo. Por si fuera poco, nos acompaña, al final, en tomar un transporte de vuelta a nuestros hoteles.

“Tour muito completo, guia super atencioso”

Experiência muito boa de ver coisas que nunca havia percebido em S. Teresa. Eduardo, nosso guia muito cuidadoso e atencioso pôde nos apresentar lugares incríveis, como por exemplo a casa das ruínas, com vistas espetaculares. Um primor.

“Santa Teresa Insider”

I thoroughly my afternoon with Eduardo. It’s quite rare when a guide actually takes you inside museum as opposed to a stop by and further clueing me in on his favorite haunts. A very personable experience that I recommend.
