A memorable and special vacation experience!

01-Nov-2022

ETours Brazil was the first travel agency we’ve ever used. Daria Beretta is the local guide that worked with us to plan our vacation to Brazil. Her suggestions for locations to visit, activities, and her attention to our interests and specific needs made this the best trip we’ve ever had. We described a few travel limitations and she made certain that everywhere we went, and everything we participated in was accommodating. Airlines, tours guides, transports – everyone was responsive to our needs. We can’t stress enough how important that was for us. Also, a complicated itinerary was not a challenge – she delivered! The tours and activities were all amazing and everything we expected them to be. If we choose to use travel agents in the future, Daria set a standard for us that all travel agents will have to meet! Thank you again Daria for a memorable and special vacation experience!!

Best experience!

25-Feb-2023

I had the best experience arranging everything for my Rio trip alongside Etours with Alessandra. Our communications were clear and punctual, and our group had a fantastic time on all the little adventures around Brazil that were sorted out for us by Etours! Thank you for a great trip

Sarah Friesen  

PERFECT!

30-Jul-2022

We booked a trip through Daria with a group 9. It was PERFECT! With over 10 flights throughout Brazil, many details were taken care of. Drivers were always waiting for us and hotels were expecting us. The tours and guides were fantastic. We had never used a travel agent for a big trip but would highly recommend Daria.
