Petropolis has a unique architectural ensemble, such as the Quitandinha Palace, the St. Peter's Cathedral of Alcantara, the Crystal Palace, the Santos Dumont Hous, the Imperial Museum, and many colonial houses in the historical center.

Feel in Europe!

    Alan gave us a very good tour, including finding us a delicious lunch. He is very friendly and interactive and his English is excellent. We would certainly book him again upon returning to Rio.
