" On monday morning, september 30th, 2013, we have made a magnificent tour with our guide Bernard. We were impressed about his enthusiasm and his love for the city, this made the tour very special.
We have been to various places in the city where you as a foreigner on your own will not come and or dare to come, however with Bernard we felt safe and almost as a local.
Our tour was about 4 hours by car, we could not have a better start of the week than with him in this beautiful city. It was worth every second and we sincerely hope he will please many more people like us. "

" We with 4 friends had Bernard as our tour guide, very friendly guy! We visited Chirst, Sugar Loaf, Santa Teresa and Lapa area. Bernard speaks very good English so we did not have any problem with our questions. He has also a good sense of humor!
When we visited Rio it was busiest time - 3 days of holiday (weekend included) so places were full of people but he saved us at couple of places from a long queuing which was great. All in all we had very memorial moments in Rio with Bernard! I would highly recommend him for any trip in Rio. You would say once is not enough with Bernard!! "

" Bernard, grazie mille per accompagnarci in questo viaggio stupendo verso “a Cidade Maravilhosa”. Ci hai insegnato che Rio non è solo spiagge spettacolari , surf e donne… E’ una città che danza, che canta, che ha un suo ritmo proprio che ti coinvolge e che non ti molla più. Ma quello che più di tutto, caro Bernard, abbiamo potuto scoprire grazie alla tua sapiente guida è la parte naturale ed ecologica della città.
Mi ha impressionato e mi ha sorpreso, che una città così grande sia avvolta dalla potenza di una natura selvaggia e incontaminata. Non sapevo che una città potesse nascondere tante meraviglie tutte insieme. La magia della foresta di Tijuca, la vista Chinesa e il bagno nella cascata in compagnia delle scimmie… Ancora grazie mille Bernard "

" In August I joined this trip with three mexican guys and we spent a wonderfu day at Parque Nacional da Floresta Da Tijuca. Bernard was the best tourist guide I ever had. He was polite, funny, speaks three languages fluently and showed us all the beauty of the Parque.
It was like five friends meet for a private hiking tour, the service was excellent! It was a wonderful day and I can suggest this tour for everybody!! I wanna say Obrigada, I'm happy I did the tour :) Special thanks to Bernard!! "

" Que decir de Bernard, es una persona muy especial, lo considero un amigo. Refleja el espíritu carioca al 100. Muy buena onda, activo, emprendedor y conocedor de su ciudad. Nos llevó al Cristo, Pan de Azúcar, la cachoeira en la floresta (un lugar mágico), Ipanema y Copacabana en un solo dia, porque no teníamos mucho tiempo. No lo podríamos haber hecho nosotros solos.
Estamos muy contentos con tú servicio y amabilidad. Gracias!!! Un abrazo grande desde Uruguay!!! "

" Mi mejor visita a Río de Janeiro! Esta es la cuarta vez que visito Rio, pero es la primera que realmente lo disfruto. Agradezco a Bernard por mostrarnos lugares tan lindos y que demuestran el real espíritu carioca. El mejor almuerzo en una favela, la vista de la ciudad desde las alturas y el fascinante ascenso para llegar a disfrutar de una cascada en medio del bosque tropical. Sin duda tendremos "saudades" de Río durante el frío invierno chileno."
