Excellent service punctuality and organization! The tour of the works is very interesting we loved everything and Marco was very friendly and explicit! Very grateful !!
Muchas Gracias.
Marco was a wonderful guide. Very knowledgable, accommodating, patient and charming. Because of him we had a wonderful visit to Oscar Niemeyer today. And thanks to him for bringing us to have a very delicious lunch at the ferry building. I would highly recommend this tour to friends and family!
Marco did a fantastic architecture tour of Rio focusing on (but not only) Oscar Niemeyer. He did the nice surprise to bring us to the top of Niteroi where we saw an amazing sunset.
My wife , little boy and me where with Marco 3 days in Rio. He took us to the places to see but also as we wanted to feel rio to different nice places of the city, Musik, good food, nice people. It was a big pleasure and we can strongly recommend Marco in any way🙏🏻
Thank you very much for your review on our services. We're delighted to read you enjoyed your time in Rio. We hope to meet you again in the future. Forte abraço, Marco Bransford
We hired Marco B. to see the buildings designed by Oscar Niemeyer. We started the day at the Caminho Niemeyer and saw several of Niemeyer's creations. Marco then took us up to the city park with magnificent vistas of Rio. Lucky for us, we discovered that Marco had been a hotel concierge and he made reservations for lunch and dinner for us that were the best meals of our trip.
This guy really knows his stuff! His history is amazing. I’m so happy that he went above and beyond his normal tour duties to show us a couple other gems in the city!!!
We are happy you so very much enjoyed the tours prepared for you. We look forward to meeting you again in the future. Forte abraço.
We had a fantastic time with Marco yesterday doing the Oscar Niemeyer tour. He went above and beyond to give us the best possible experience in Rio by also giving us a lot of very useful cues on where to go in Rio for Arts and food etc... We would definitely book him again next time we are here for an extended tour of Rio or maybe go to Petropolis. Thanks a lot Marco!
