Real experiences, not tours. Samba where the locals actually go, Carnival from the inside, private boat parties and a host who speaks your language and stays with you the whole way.
🗣️ English · Spanish · PortugueseSome of these have a full page in English. The rest are organised directly over WhatsApp — tell me your dates and I will tell you what is on while you are here.
I am Camilo, Uruguayan, and I have been living in Rio for years. I am a samba dancer and teacher, and I am the one who organises your days and shows up to live them with you.
That is the whole difference. You are not buying a ticket from a call centre — you are messaging the person who will be there, who knows which samba is worth it this Tuesday, which beach works on a windy day, and where a group of foreigners should and should not be at 2am.
“Camilo is the best tour guide ever! He was so knowledgeable about Rio de Janeiro... He is full of positive energy and makes sure that everyone feels comfortable at all times.”
“Camilo is a great Samba teacher... He integrated us very well into the local samba crowd during the samba party. 100% recommendable. Would do it again.”
“I was looking for an authentic local samba experience in Rio and I am so glad I found him! 10/10 experience and would 100% recommend.”
