Most amazing experience - Thanks so much Helio for great Samba tuition and an incredible Samba club visit afterwards. Helio has a real skill to put you at ease learning to Samba as a beginner. I did this solo and Samba works well for that. Great way to get to know others when travelling. The Samba Club was in an old antique place over several floors so the decor was exquisite. I would never have discovered it or gone there on my own without this tour. It’s a must for your trip to Rio.

Overall a satisfactory experience - Enjoyed the course overall! The course was perfectly suited for us as beginners, starting from very simple, specific movements. I think 90 minutes would have been a more suitable length (than the 60 minutes we got), but that’s just my personal preferance. The room was too small for the number of people attending, which was a real drawback, but we still had a good time!

Nog what we were expecting - Booked this on the misapprehension that there was going to be a crowd and a bit of fun. Turned up an only us and another couple. It was a bona fide dance class. Not what we were looking for so left before it began.
