” We just returned from a fantastic vacation in Brazil. I cannot express my gratitude for the wonderful travel services provided by RioNative.
Mr Eugenio truly cares about making sure every detail is worked out. He took us to many places and answered our myriad of questions carefully and thoughtfully. We had questions on social, political, historical, and geographic areas as well as about the birds, plants, animals and local customs and language. His excellent English skills made the answers easy to understand.
When our scheduled time to visit the Christ statue was a cloudy day, he quickly rearranged things so that we got to go on a ‘blue sky day’ instead and had an awesome view of the Redeemer as well as the city laid out below.
He found me the best place to buy coffee beans, jewelry & anything else we asked about. The restaurants he recommended were all ones we’ll return to on the next visit. We asked if he knew of an ice cream store visited a couple years ago & he spent time walking the block around the hotel to locate it for us!
I know we will return to Brazil and we will contact RioNative for ALL future travel plans! Eugenio is the best – you will not be diappointed if you use the services of RioNative – absolutely top-notch service & care” – Deborah – Michigan
” We had an amazing time in Rio thanks to Mr Eugene from Rionative who looked after us so well during our trip and showed us the best of Rio. We not only wanted to see the sights such as Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf Mountain but we also wanted to relax on the beaches, enjoy the fine cuisine and squeeze in a football match at Maracana Stadium. Eugene tailored his tours to our needs and really over exceeded our expectations. His perfect English was very welcome and his in-depth knowledge of Rio meant that each car ride on the way back from the airport or on the way to a particular sight was so enjoyable, filled with lots of interesting information about the city, we really learned a lot! He also recommended restaurants which were well kept secrets rather than the main tourist traps. We will never forget going to Maracana with Eugene and Claudia to watch Flamengo play Botofogo in the final of the league. What an atmosphere with 80,000 football crazy Brazilians! It was unforgettable! We would love to go back to Rio one day – it has the best weather, the best beaches, the best food, the best football, the best parties, the best people… and now the best guide. For anyone that wants to see the real Rio and feel like a local, look no further than Rionative“ - Farhad & Shazma Mawani-UK
” We arrived in Rio without specific plans for any tours. Fortunately, we were contacted by Mr Eugene from Rio Native shortly after our arrival. He came to our hotel and in a few minutes, we mapped out an agenda for the following three days. It was perfect. Portuguese is a difficult language for us, so his perfect English was a welcome relief. With Eugene’s help, we were able to maximize our time and see the things that we really wanted to see. By having a guide who knows the city so well, we were able to avoid long lines and see much more than we ever could have in a large group. We have been fortunate to see a lot of the world, but our experience in Rio was one of the best because of the services of Eugene. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Eugene for making this a memorable trip. - Jim, Temple, Texas
Just want to say “thanks” for your excellent assistance in organising all of my trips to Brasil. In the last few years, with your help, I have had the opportunity to see the Formula 1 races, the Jogos Pan Americanas and get to know Rio like a “Carioca” every year for Carnaval, and to see all that Rio de Janeiro has to offer. With your help, I also have had the opportunity to visit and get to know Fortaleza, São Paulo and Salvador Bahia. I look forward to seeing you again for Carnaval 2009″ . Jessie Cornish, Los Angeles, Califiornia
” We want to thank Mr Eugenio Souza for showing us “his city”. We only had 5 hours to see beautiful Rio de Janeiro. Eugenio made it possible for us to see the “Best of Rio”, not only the sights but to get a special feel for the the lifestyle of the warm and friendly “Cariocas” .There is so much to see and do and we hope to come back soon. We know we will be in good hands when we let him make all the arrangements. Eugenio’s command of the English language combined with his knowledge of the city made this an excellent travel experience. Thank you very much” - Magdalena and Charles Willis, Mount Dora, Florida
” Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! We loved Rio and all it had to offer. Eugene made our trip very special and memorable, we only wish we could of stayed longer. Seeing Flamengo beat Sãu Paulo with 70,000 Brazilians was amazing and the early morning rise to Christ Redeemer was more than worth it! – Rich and Beck, Banbury.
