5 stars Immersive Group Tour with excellence!

I took Bernard's solo tour back in April to prepare for our company trip of 30 in July. Bernard helped me design and organized 5 full & half day tours span across the entire week. He enlisted 3 other trusted guides for all our activities, got VIP tickets in advance, and everyday helped me coordinate the drivers, our very tight schedules, as well as guiding the group of his charge. Everyone loved him and the guides of his choice, and it was the trip of a lifetime for everyone, miraculously seamless without even one glitch.

​

We tour the Sugar Loaf, Bernard picked the perfect time to go before the crowd. We did the walking tour of Ipanema and enjoyed lots of shopping. We went to the Botanical Garden full of interesting plants and small monkeys. We did the private Carnival Experience with costumes, dance, and drumming lessons follow by visit to the Lapa Steps and a lovely lunch and tour of the Santa Teresa. Some of us hiked the Two Brother’s Mountain (very challenging for the beginners).

​

On the last day, Christ the Redeemer + Saturday Market (excellent) near by. Some of these activities were planned last minute, Bernard sprang to action at moment’s notice and made all our travel dreams comes true.
