For A Week
to Rio
Real stories from real trips
Travelers, in their words.
"It was truly the experience of a lifetime. BBE handled every detail, from selecting the best blocos to finding vibrant, diverse local communities. Safety was my primary concern, yet I felt completely secure from day one."
"I wasn't getting a tourist version of Rio. I was introduced to the city through people who genuinely know and love it. Culture, nightlife, and energy, alongside locals."
"They didn't just show me where to go. They helped me understand how to move safely, what to avoid, and made the trip feel personal, connected, and real."

"I started BBE because every time someone asked me about Brazil, I ended up planning their trip for free. Six years on the ground, a real team, and the doors that come with that. I would rather have a handful of real stories than fifty padded ones. Your trip is what makes the next card."
