This was a nice, complete...

Published on Mar, 2025

This was a nice, complete tour of Petropolis. Very enjoyable day with Chris. Saw everything that was listed on the itinerary and had enough time to explore a bit on our own. Lunch was a buffet with good selections. The only downside was that we were the first pickup, so it was almost 2 hours by the time we got everyone on board and departed Rio. Long day (12 hours) for the driver, guide and us, but a good experience.

Fun day in PetrĂ³polis

Published on Mar, 2025

Mama Christine is a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable of the history of the area. We also learned how the ladies used fans in the old days. How to let gentlemen know if you're married, not interested, looking for romance, or if you want to cut to the chase.
