 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. He hecho un circuito a medida de 19 días con BRAZIL VIP y la experiencia ha sido fabulosa. Una profesionalidad de primera. Siempre nos atendió Rachel y estuvo pendiente en todo momento de todo enviándonos las tarjetas de embarque de todos los destinos y cuidando hasta el más mínimo detalle. De hecho una amiga se incorporó al grupo mes y medio antes del viaje y en un día Rachel hizo todas las gestiones para que pudiera también acompañarnos. Los guías locales proporcionan una gran información y son encantadores y te asesoran en todo momento no importándoles si es necesario estirar su horario laboral a veces por acompañarte . Destacar la puntualidad tanto de guías como conductores. Además los alojamientos tienen mucho encanto y son habitaciones espaciosas a pesar de que estuvimos en habitación triple. Me enamoró la posada los Encantes del Nordeste en Barreirinhas. Sin duda recomendaría Brazil VIP a todo el mundo que quiera conocer Brasil que es un país con una naturaleza espectacular y unas gentes maravillosas y si vuelvo porque es un país que merece la pena repetir lo haría con BRAZIL VIP

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Seleccionar a Brazil VIP para organizar nuestro viaje de España a Brasil fue un completo acierto. Desde el primer momento Paulo demostró su conocimiento, su capacidad de organización y su buen nivel de español para hacernos fácil algo a priori tan complicado como optimizar nuestra visita a un país tan grande como Brasil. En todo momento Paulo nos ofreció sugerencias de lugares que visitar, en qué orden hacerlo considerando la época del año, sugerir diferentes hoteles/alojamientos entre los que elegir y organizar guías que hablaban español para poder optimizar nuestras visitas. Si la organización fue buena, le ejecución no lo fue menos. En todo momento los guías nos estaban esperando en los aeropuertos de desinto, nos recogían con puntualidad exquisita en los alojamientos y nos llevaron a los puntos más relevantes de las ciudades explicando la historia, tradiciones, cultura, etc. Con el único "problema" que pudimos tener (un vuelo retrasado cinco horas) Paulo estuvo todo el tiempo atento, avisándonos de los cambios, informándonos de las actualizaciones y ofreciendo posibles alternativas. Tener un contacto conocedor del idioma y del entorno y en la misma zona horaria nos hizo sentir mucho más tranquilos durante todo el viaje (y más teniendo en cuenta que en Brasil es difícil encontrar personal que hable inglés o español incluso en los aeropuertos importantes como Río o Sao Paulo). En resumen, un diez en organización y ejecución, en proximidad y en atención al cliente. Volveríamos a elegir Brazil Vip sin duda alguna si nos planteamos otro viaje a Brasil.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Recently, my wife and myself have decided to go to Brazil on vacation. It was really a last minute decision, as my wife has quit her job, so I was tasked to organize everything in one week, started planning on the 15th of April for a departure on the 22nd of April. Not at all easy as we live in Greece and we had never been in Latin America. I did quite a lot of homework, however after couple of days I have contacted 3 travel agencies, debriefed them and asked them for suggestions. We have selected “Brazil VIP” and what impressed me the most with them were many things: 1.	Their speed of reaction: they have replied to us after one day even if it was Saturday night 2.	Their immediate understanding of our needs: they have proposed 2 or 3 options based on my initial debrief and at the same time including insider tips that have made the vacation unforgettable 3.	They have strictly remained on Budget, proposing ideas to enhance the customer satisfaction 4.	They were very agile to change the plan when I was expressing some doubts for the suitability of their proposal Once we arrived in Brazil, they made themselves immediately available to changing requests, either at 6:00 in the morning or at 22:00 in the night. Overall, we had a great time in Brazil and we were extremely satisfied from the service we have received from “Brazil VIP”. Hotels were great, the guides were punctual, very knowledge and able to give us the local flair that cannot be found in the internet. They advertise Taylor made tours and this is exactly what they do, with an excellent understanding of the customer’s needs and specificities. We were so happy that we plan to return soon to Brazil and obviously to engage their services, in order to have another unforgettable experience.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just went on a 2 1/2 week trip to Brazil with my family that was planned by Brazil Vip Tailor-Made Tours. We were supposed to go a year ago, but a broken foot caused it to be delayed. Paulo was so cooperative and helpful when it came to planning the original trip and dealing with the postponement. We went to Rio de Janiero, Bonito, Pantanal, The Amazon and Paraty. Brazil is a large country, so there were many transfers and flights, but everything went very smoothly. Every hotel we stayed at and every guide we had was top notch. Paulo was available throughout the trip for questions and minor changes we wanted to make. I cannot recommend Brazil Vip Tailor-made Tours enough. Thank you Paulo and team for the trip of a lifetime.

Une amie était partie l’été dernier et avait également adoré son voyage avec VIP BRAZIL, c’est comme ça que j’ai fait appel à cette agence. Nous sommes partis 3 semaines et tout a été parfait du premier contact à la fin du voyage. Nous avons fait un voyage magnifique, les guides, les hôtels, les transferts tout était parfaitement organisé. Une fois arrivé au Brésil, nous avons eu besoin de penser à rien, juste profiter de ce voyage et de découvrir ce magnifique pays. Ce voyage a été fait sur mesure à partir de nos envies, nos besoin et nos attentes. Nous espérons pouvoir, un jour, repartir avec cette agence. Nous ne pouvons que vous recommander de faire appel à VIP BRAZIL pour un futur voyage.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Five stars are not enough to rate this company. They organized our trip and assisted us day by day during our three weeks tour of Brazil. Paulo was of great help even when we asked him favors besides his duties as a tourism agent. I recommend highly this company.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutamente recomendable. Escogimos Brazil Vip por las buenas opiniones que había de ellos en internet. Somos una familia de cuatro miembros que ha pasado la Navidad en Manaos y Río de Janeiro. Nuestra experiencia con Brazil Vip no puede ser más satisfactoria. Desde el primer contacto fueron muy amables y se adaptaron a la idea de viaje que teníamos. Después ellos se encargaron de la distribución del viaje por zonas y días. Los hoteles y actividades que eligieron han sido acertadísimas y efectuaron las reservas oportunas para otras que queríamos hacer nosotros (cena de noche vieja y lancha privada en Ilha Grande). Lo gestionan todo de manera rápida y eficaz. Las recogidas para los traslados siempre puntuales y bien visibles, siempre estaban antes de que nosotros llegáramos. Todos los conductores y guías muy educados.  Durante el viaje, en todo momento están en comunicación directa mediante WhatsApp y una aplicación que te da avisos de los vuelos. Y todo en lengua castellana. Esto da una enorme tranquilidad pues sabes que ante cualquier imprevisto o duda siempre te atienden de manera inmediata. Muchas gracias Paulo y compañía por vuestro gran trabajo.
