I had a fantastic experience with my tour guide, Monica. She was deeply knowledgeable and offered great insight into the architecture and history of Niterói. Her sharp wit and acerbic humor added a unique flavor to the tour, and she skillfully adapted the experience to match my interests. Monica was both amicable and professional, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. It was definitely worth the price, and I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting the area!

Extraordinary! Our overall experience in Rio de Janeiro was definitely amazing after this guided tour. Because beside the amazing things that we visited in Niteroi, Celio, our guide, was an incredible storyteller and the perfect guide & ambassador for Brasil. He is a treasure, offering a lot of infos, insides & insights regarding the Brasilian culture. We totally recommend this tour with Celio!

The tour was very good and entertaining. The person who guided us, Meilin, was very well prepared and took us to very exciting places of Oscar Niemayer's architecture. Their conversation was very interesting and educational. It was an unforgettable day, for those who, like me, love architecture.

Very interesting. The NITEROI museum is an oddity in a dream setting of Californian beaches and hills. Thanks to Romeu for these explanations p
