Get to know the history and beauty of Petropolis with transportation and professional guide with all the necessary information for your entertainment and culture.
With the royal family residing in Rio de Janeiro, many trips were made crossing the interior of the present state of RJ, In one of these voyages made by Dom Pedro I in 1822, which traveled from Rio de Janeiro to the Golden Path in Minas Gerais, the emperor lodged at the Padre Correia farm in the region. The enchantment was immediate, and there began a love story between Dom Pedro I and the region of Petropolis, which shortly afterwards acquired the then Fazenda do Córrego Seco, which would be called "Petropolis.".

We enjoyed a full day trip with Ederson Oliveira. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Brazil in general and Rio and Petropolis in particular. Among places we visited were Quitandinha palace, St. Peter’s Cathedral, Imperial Palace, Chrystal Palace. By the end of the day we learned a lot of interesting facts about the royal family and various historical events that shaped Brazil in the 19th century.
Ederson is a very friendly, accommodating and well informed a type of a guide one would like to have in an unfamiliar place. We are happy that we decided to explore Petropolos, specifically with Ederson. 5 stars, highly recommended, thank you very much, Ederson.

Ederson was knowledgeable and understood our interests. During the day he checked multiple times to make sure that he was meeting our expectations. He was cheerful, great sense of humor and very sincere about what to find in the area.
Petropolis is a beautiful city with interesting sites/remains from the Imperial period. The cathedral is undergoing renovations but was open and definitively a must see if you like architecture.
Definitively recommend a tour with Ederson.
