Ton' was an incredible host! As first time "gringos" in Rio we felt a little anxious about our visit, especially given that we only had 2 days to explore the city. With Ton's help, we spent the morning at Pão de Açucar, visited a gorgeous park (with monkeys!) during the hottest part of the day, strolled the beach at sunset, and explored Santa Terreza and Lapa during the evening. Ton' is an absolute fountain of knowledge about Rio, not to mention a very welcoming host. The room was also wonderful - we adored sleeping under plants hanging from the ceiling. All in all, we loved meeting and hanging out with Ton' and his flatmate and we will definitely stay with him again if we come to Rio in the future. We can't wait to recommend this airbnb to friends!
