Hello! My name is Boston Bruno.
I was born in Brazil, but grew up in Boston, Massachusetts, where I lived for more than 20 years. After returning to Brazil, I decided to become a professional tour guide in my home city.
I truly love sharing the hidden treasures of this vibrant place with visitors and creating memorable, unique experiences for every guest. As a fully licensed tour guide, I'm excited to show you the very best of this amazing city.
Looking forward to exploring it with you!
If you are visiting Rio de Janeiro, a tour with Bruno is an absolute must. He is essentially a tour guide and a bodyguard in one; he cares deeply about his clients' experience and, most importantly, their safety. As a solo female traveler, I felt incredibly comfortable and secure throughout my private walking tour. Bruno goes above and beyond to ensure you see the best of the city while feeling completely at ease. I couldn't recommend him more highly!
The perfect way to kick off our time in Rio! Since it was our first day, we wanted a local's perspective, and Bruno was the ideal choice. His English is flawless, and his vibrant personality made the tour a joy. He is a must-see guide!
If you want a tour that’s as educational as it is easygoing, Bruno is your guy! He has a fantastic personality that makes the hours fly by. While it’s a comprehensive walk, it never feels rushed—Bruno encourages you to linger and truly soak in the stunning architecture. It is the perfect balance of deep history and relaxed sightseeing. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to authentically experience the beauty of Rio!
Bruno was a fantastic last-minute find who delivered an incredible walking tour. He is deeply informative, truly transporting you back in time with his historical storytelling. He even carries a book of archival photos to show exactly how the areas used to look, making the history vivid and easy to grasp. We felt incredibly safe with him throughout—Bruno is an absolute must!
Bruno was seriously the highlight of our Rio trip! Wish I'd known he does private tours—I'd have jumped at the chance. He's got such a fun, warm personality, super knowledgeable, and just makes everything hilarious. The tour sounds long, but time flew by with him. Loved his photo book that brought every story and spot right back to life. The 200 Reais contribution? Hesitated at first, but he totally earns it (and more!). Small group, and he watches out for everyone like a pro. Bruno's amazing—you won't regret booking him!
