My partner and I greatly enjoyed this tour with Marco. We were also fortunate enough to be the only 2 people on tour today and it felt rather like a private one. Marco is very knowledgeable when it comes to the history of Brazil and not only, he always tried to put the things he said in the larger political context, including with references to our own home countries. He was also very pleasant and we learnt a lot about Brazilian and Rio history. I absolutely recommend this tour!

I had a wonderful time on the tour. Learned a lot about sociology/political history of Brazil and not the typical and somewhat boring textbook trivia you are taught in school. Brazil has a layered history and I was so happy to understand it more with the help of a kind and knowledgable local.

Marco was an expert guide with extensive knowledge of Brazil’s history, current political environment, and complex socioeconomic realities — as an individual nation but also within the regional and global contexts. Easy going person with a great sense of humor. Highly recommend for anyone curious about this incredible country.
