    We recommend 150% Tiarra Latina who organized us a private 15-day tour in Rio, Ilha Grande, paraty and Ubatuba. Everything was perfect: organization, transfers, choice of hotels and excursions, guides... Margot was attentive and took the time to meet us at our hotel in Rio. Tailor-made. We had a wonderful trip. Thanks again.
