What you can expect

This is not a cooking class or a restaurant tour.. it’s a flavourful walk through Brazil’s biodiversity, led by a passionate local fruit expert.

You’ll stroll through a real farmer’s market in Rio, where your guide will select and open exotic fruits for you to taste, some you’ve heard of, many you definitely haven’t.

As you eat, they’ll share:
°Nutritional value
°Cultural background & folklore
°Seasonal availability & economic impact
°Traditional uses, including Brazilian recipes and drinks

From tangy acerola to creamy cashew fruit, and from bold tropical juiciness to sweet surprises, this tour will open your palate and your perspective.

Most guests say they didn’t know what to expect and were blown away:
“100 stars if I could!”
“Tasted fruits I’d never even heard of.”
“Fun, educational, and super tasty!”

Who It’s For:
°Travellers curious about local culture beyond the tourist track
°Food lovers, fruit fans & smoothie addicts
°Families, couples & solo travellers looking for something different
°Anyone who wants a light, fun, walking experience in Rio
