About me and my experience
Former TV journalist and documentary director, now travel blogger, architect of your experiences and director of your travels. I have visited more than 40 countries, but I remain incorrigible.
My services and offers
I will show you the inside of the brightest city in South America, so you can see the secret and non-tourist places of Rio de Janeiro through the eyes of a local resident.
I'm not a classic guide, I'm a documentary director - so our tour of Rio is a live script of a film in which you're not a spectator, but a participant.
Unusual architecture: from classical to modern
Labyrinths of favelas and acquaintance with their inhabitants
rites of mysterious African cults and rituals of local Indians
Football as a Religion: From the Atmosphere of Stadiums to Wyba Boxes
Cozy streets and atmospheric bars for locals
Abandoned buildings and ancient cemeteries
то Helicopter and paraglider flights, water trips on boats and kayaks
Secret beaches and hiking with the most luxurious views
And most importantly, no crowds of tourists!
Even the most famous instagram places (the statue of Jesus, Copacabana, Sugarloaf, carnival) you will see from an unusual angle.
Each route, as a constructor, can be customized to your desires - to feel the energy of Rio in your rhythm and as safely as possible.
Mountaineering is my special passion. I know hiking tracks of any difficulty level, each of which will reward privacy with nature and fantastic views.
Architecture is my professional fetish. From a porn cinema in a fading monument of colonial architecture, to a brutal monster of the modern era, through which a car tunnel passes.
In addition, I organize tours throughout Brazil: from the mountain villages of Swiss immigrants to the Indian tribes in the heart of the Amazon. I’ve been making documentary films for years and now I’m ready to direct your live adventure.

The favelas, poor slum areas, are the most contrasting of Rio de Janeiro and the most controversial... like the heart of a Latin A …

Договорились с Алексеем о прогулке по "обратной стороне" центра города. хотели увидеть что-то помимо лестницы селарона и других супер-туристических мест. Хотели увидеть историю города глубже. Я даже не подозревала, что Рио пережил столько перестроек! Лёша знает много необычных историй и бытовых деталей "не из википедии".
Гуляли по африканскому кварталу, видели старинную церковь прямо во дворе и самую первую улицу в городе, которая сейчас выглядит очень необычно. даже прокатились на канатной дороге в нетуристическую фавелу Праведенсия (сначала боялись, но всё было под контролем)
