Yeah I can see it appealing to some guys...it is over the top seedy...lots of rough characters...one that sticks out was a somewhat masculine bald- headed guy with enormously long fingernails who was smiling at me when i walked in. Another was standing by the entrance making very weird motions with his tongue. Definitely seemed like a trans hangout place, and also there seemed to be drug dealing going on..

Out of curiosity I went to check out the theaters in Cinelandia the other day... I ended up going to one called Cine Rex. It cost 20 reals to enter. An old straight porn from the 1980’s was playing. It was pitch black inside, and a lot of areas in the theater smelled like urine. There were probably 50 guys inside (mostly older crowd, with a few hustlers and a handful of transexuals wearing thongs and bras). The whole place just seemed creepy to me, and I left after 20 minutes. I wouldn’t recommend it at all, FYI...

While I agree with you on principal, it is easier said than done to stand up to them. Without speaking portuguese it would be difficult to explain what happened to the manager or the police (and certainly I wouldnt want to get the police involved in a foreign country over an amount that is $30 usd). Most of the police here do not speak English. I can’t imagine they would have much sympathy for a tourist who claims a sauna boy did not perform as promised. The muscular straight sauna types are also physically intimidating, and I would actually be afraid of getting them too pissed off for my own safety. When it comes to saunas I think some bad programas are just part of the overall expense, certainly if the amounts we were talking about were $250 or $300 there would be more at stake. In the future I am going to try tomcal and others advice of having them show if they are a good kisser, etc. before hiring.

How was he in bed...does he kiss or suck? Taking his extremely thick cock would definitely not be easy. I actually would like to top him, but I doubt he would go for that..

I just looked at his instagram and he looks much older now..

Does Junior at Point 202 do programas anymore or is he strictly a businessman now? I find him sexy...it is slightly amusing that he has pictures of himself shirtless all over the walls. Also, FYI, Point 202 is having a promotion where entrance on Thursdays is 30 reals. Brazilian drag is quite interesting, there is one drag queen who is extremely unattractive/obnoxious. I am guessing she must be funny in Portuguse? She does a thing where she pretends to smell the strippers dicks and then makes comments on them. All the locals laugh at her jokes. Does the guy in the bottom center picture still work at Point? He is beautiful, but I havn’t seen him

On the weekends they seem to have more masseuses working at Rio G. I saw one muscular masseuse working and the other masseuse was a handsome older guy, also muscular. I didnt get a massage there, but I assume they have happy endings?

I’m also curious why he wears the shirt...I have seen him without it, and while he is not the most muscular his body is still toned and nice.

Has anyone been with Mateus at Pointe 202? He always walks around in a t-shirt and underwear with his cock out, stroking it. His dick is extremely thik...gorgeous face...he seems a little aloof though and claims to be a total top. I also met the famous Ricardo and he was very sweet. He told me he wants to come to the US but his visa got denied twice. I remember seeing something about him on these forums, and how he proposes marriage to everybody. Also, has anyone been with Tyson? He is also gorgeous and looks like a model. One of the local regulars at 202 who befriended me told me he charges 200 because he is in such demand. Tyson speaks English with an Australian accent, because apparently he lived for several years in Australia. I will try to get his instagram so I can post a pic

I forgot to mention my first night in Club 117 the first garota I talked to asked me for 750 reals. I think I actually started laughing...

Yeah, I think since I am a new face in the sauna, they are just pushing the limits to see what they can get away with. tomcal, are you mostly a top? I didn’t have any problems with the versatiles/pasivos with sucking or kissing. It was just the muscular tops/macho types. It was obvious when they said they wouldnt suck without a condom, it was just a way of getting out of their earlier promise to suck. In the future, with or without condoms needs to be clarified ahead of time if they say they will suck..

I agree that you can kind of get a sense of their attitude if you talk to them a little more beforehand. I think the guys I had problems with were so hot that I overlooked my intuitions about them. They were macho straight types. One asked for more cash within seconds after cumming. One I handed the cash to rolled up in the locker room - he then counted it out and immediately asked for more. For what it’s worth, that happened only at 117. Nobody at Point 202 asked for more after. Getting to Grumari was pretty easy. I took the metro to Jardin Oceanico. From there I took an uber to Praia Abrico for about 35 reals. The gay part of the beach is the north side. If you climb up the rocks, you go down a narrow path until you come out onto a clearing. There were probably 15 guys hard there and waiting to go with someone. Others were jacking off in groups. I didn’t really take any valuables to the beach except my phone. I keep my bag with me at all times. Overall, it felt a lot safer than Copacabana because it was mostly just locals there. There weren’t people going up and down selling stuff like the tourist beaches.

Grindr is amazing in Rio, and hornet also. I have had hotter hookups from the apps then from straight sauna guys who don’t always perform that great

I’ve been in Rio now for 2 weeks, and it is my second trip here. The saunas have been crowded with lots of model-looking guys. I have mostly gone to Club 117 and Point 202, as well as Rio G Spa. I’ve had about 5 programas so far, and I am getting kind of tired of the sauna guy antics. I’m versatile, and the only good experiences so far have been me with me being activo. For reference I am early 30’s and have no problem getting hook ups from grindr, I just go to the saunas for the model good -looking, drop dead gorgeous guys i couldnt get in US. However, my best experiences in Rio so far have been for free off grindr and in Rio G Spa, as well as the nude beach in Grumari. Garota 1 - said he liked to kiss, promised to suck, said he was only top. Agreed on 100 reals. He kissed for about 10 seconds then literally pushed my head to his nipple and told me to suck his nipple. Said he would only suck with condom. Was staring at the porn on the tv the whole time, and couldnt act more disinterested. After he starting topping for a minute he told me to cum. Practically yelling cum, cum etc. Basically trying to rush me. Then he came without asking and demanded 200 reals. After arguing with him in spanish (i only speak spanish and english), he agreed to 120 reals. Garota 2 - Agreed on 120 reals for everything including cum. Only kissed less than a minute, only wanted to fuck doggy style, and again staring at porn on tv the whole time. Regardless how hot he was, it wasnt enjoyable. Garota 3 - Cute pasivo guy in early 20’s. Very affectionate, good kisser, sucked great. Had a great time with him. Garota 4 - One of the sauna gods - probably the best looking guy in 117. Said he was activo. Agreed on 150 but after he demanded 200, claiming the session was longer than normal. Was a good top, but again refused to kiss, refused to touch my dick. Better than the other tops but still not a satisfactory hook up for me. Garota 5 - Versatile, very cute, kind of twinkish body. Good kisser, sucked good, overall great in every way. I am wondering how others handle when sauna guys refuse to do what they promised, or try to raise the price after the fact. It just gets old being shaken down constantly for more money. Maybe I just need more affection than other clients also. I’m not really into sex with someone who is acting disinterested or doesnt like guys at all. It is just a strange feeling for me. Rio G spa has been great on the weekends. My hook ups there have been so much better in every way, with guys who are actually into me. The nude beach at grumari had a lot of hot group action going on as well up in the rocks. I think in future trips to 117 I am going to have to be more selective and get a feel for the guys attitude before going with them. Does anyone else have any tips on how to deal with sauna guys?

How much is the ticket with the special? I just checked from Miami and it looks like around $1250, which is still high

Thanks for the photos, makes me miss being in Rio. Who is the Brazilian guy in the second pic? He is hott! Did you meet him at the beach or at the sauna. Which saunas have you been to so far..

Wow, I can't believe it. Le Boy was the last large gay club in Copacabana

How much extra do they ask to cum usually?

I was wondering...do the garrotos at 117 mind if you take photos of their cocks, etc.? How do they feel about face photos. Do you just bring your phone with you and ask for some pics when you are in the room with them?

Carnaval is a fun time to go to Rio. On Saturday morning there is a massive parade/party down Copacabana where they shut all the streets down for the entire day. Lots of young people, insanely hot guys everywhere (a lot probably straight). It is kind of funny because there are so many guys dressed in drag/girly costumes... which I guess is kind of a traditional thing to do there? Kind of interesting with the macho culture...I don't really get it. The main thing you don't want to miss during Carnaval is to go to the Sambadrome at least one night. On Thursday and Friday they have a parade for the smaller "minor league" samba schools. The main 2 nights of schools competing for the title are Saturday, and Sunday. Monday is the parade for the champions. I would recommend going to the main parade..I booked my tickets online for Sunday. For the grandstand ticket plus roundtrip transfer from Ipanema was $130. Be careful buying tickets online...there are lots of places trying to charge $300+ when the ticket should really only be around $100. You could take the metro there but I chose to do a chartered bus because it gets very chaotic around the stadium, and the area around the Sambadrome is not somewhere you would necessarily want to be walking late at night. The best sectors to be in are 4-11. The cheapest sectors are 12 and 13 but definitely avoid those...the view is terrible because the grandstands are set way back from the main strip. The parade starts around 10pm and goes until 5a.m. There are 6 schools that perform for 45 mins each, with a 15 minute break in between each school. With the shuttle they had rides back after each school ended. I stayed until about 3am. I agree that you can find overall much hotter guys at 117, especially if you are into muscles. Many of the guys at 117 are stunning, and there is a lot to be said for choosing whoever you want without having to chase anyone around. Actually it is them who are chasing you. On the whole though I thought there were a large number of attractive guys at Rio G and it was also convenient since I was staying in Ipanema. It was 1000 times better than any sauna in the US would ever be (which is why I never bother with US saunas)

I only went to Le Boy once on a Friday night and it was absolutely dead until very late (people started arriving at 1am). They have different event different nights of the week so maybe I went on the wrong night. On Saturday they had a big dick contest apparently and some kind of drag show. If you want a hook up you are probably better off at a Sauna

This was my second time in Rio and honestly, every time I go it makes me want to move there. There is something about Rio that makes you feel more alive, and like anything can happen. I meet people everywhere there - the beach, the metro, the hostel. I am 29 and not to be conceited but I am very attractive (although there are plenty of guys in Rio way hotter than me). Guys are very open with sexuality which is so different from the US. In Rio, nobody cares about changing in front of you or if you see their dick. For example there was this gorgeous guy from Sao Paulo who was staying at my hostel. He started talking to me and giving me some advice about Rio. It was hard to tell if he liked me or was just being friendly. Gay guys in Rio usually don't act "gay." They are for the most part very masculine so it is almost impossible to tell. When he came back from the shower he hung up his towel and was putting deodorant on, etc. while naked and semi-erect. It was hard to have a normal conversation while his large dick was hanging out. He came over to my bed to show me something on his phone, still naked, laughing, having a normal conversation. I didn't make any moves because I didn't know if he was even gay. The next morning when I woke up he was jacking off in his bed and made no attempts to hide it and was moaning a little. Again, something that would never happen in the US where everyone is raised to hide sexuality. Brazil also has long urinals where everyone just pulls their cock out and pees without thinking twice. Actually during the Carnaval parades there was an insane number of beautiful guys, and some of them would pull their cock out and start peeing near the beach. Kind of gross, but it's amazing that they could care less who sees their dick. I stayed in Ipanema 3 streets back from the beach at a hostel. Perfect location near the gay beach, close to the metro and Rio G Spa. I'm surprised that nobody mentions Rio G Spa here when talking about saunas. There are no rentboys but every time I went there were a lot of hot local guys. I went the first time on a Sunday around 6pm and it was absolutely packed. 60 reals to get in but private rooms are free there. In Brazil I feel like 80% of the guys are my type. When I walked down the halls, lots of guys would grab at me, open their towel to show their cock. So hot. My favorite place is the wet steam room...so much action goes down there. The light is dim but you can still see people's faces and what they look like which is good for me (I don't like total dark rooms). I went in and sat down next to an attractive muscular guy. We were playing with ourselves under the towel and then he reached over and started stroking me. He opened up my towel and we started making out and stroking each other. The steam makes everything wet and easy to stroke. We both had precum which is good for stroking and then we started sucking each other. Two other very hot guys came over and I started sucking them while the other guy was sucking me. After a while, one of the guys I was sucking started to cum and came all over my chest. Then the guy next to me started cumming and hearing him made me cum. It is amazing to be in a sauna filled with so many guys that are hot and I am attracted to. I usually don't like other people watching me, but when I am being watched by other attractive guys it is kind of a turn on (which I didn't realize about myself until now). After we came we all went and showered together. Again showers are communal and nobody cares... and most of the guys are in various states of erection. I did notice that if someone comes in who the guys dont like they will cover up and ignore them, so they definitely can have some attitude at times. I went out to the main bar area and ones of the guys from the steam room came up to me and started talking. I went back to a private cabin with him and I started sucking him again. I am vers, and like both. It seems like there are 90% tops in Rio, which can be a little annoying because some of the total tops refuse to suck your dick or even touch it. At the very least I need to be stroked if I'm getting fucked. His dick was extremely large. I am not a size queen at all. Average is fine with me, I would say 7 inches is ideal but 6 is fine for me also. He was probably 10 inches. We laid down on the bed and he was very affectionate which I like. Rubbing my cheek against his, giving me kisses all over my neck. He fucked me and I came for the second time. He asked for my Whatsapp and said to come to his place for dinner the next day. The only thing I didn't like about him is that he didn't want to touch my cock or suck me. But he made up for it in other ways. By now it was 9pm and the place was still so packed you could barely move. Very few tourists which is kind of nice. In the private rooms there is no sound proofing so you can here all the rest of the guys moaning and having sex. The guys next to me were pounding each other so loud you could hear the butt cheeks slapping. I'm not into rough sex but it isn't surprising that these macho guys like to pound like they are pounding a pussy. The next day I went to the gay beach and met an American from the US who suggested we go to the nude beach, Praia de Abraco He said the guys all jack off in front of each other there, even the straight ones. It is kind of a drive from Rio (maybe like an hour) and I never ended up going because the transportation there is difficult. Grindr is extremely active in Rio as is Tindr. A lot of the muscle guys are only looking for other large muscle guys. I have more of an athletic body vs. muscles (steroids are very common in Rio). Competition is really fierce in Rio. No matter how good looking you are, there are 10 guys just as good looking or hotter. I talked with a lot of guys on grindr and probably matched 100 on tindr. I speak more spanish than portuguese so communication could sometimes be an issue. A lot of the guys would ask me to their place, but I didn't always feel comfortable going somewhere I had never been in Rio, especially at night. I took the metro everywhere during the day without a problem, but at night I didn't feel safe. One really hot guy lived in Niteroi and wanted me to take the ferry over there to his house. But again, I didn't think it was a good idea to go alone. I went to Le Boy one night and it really needs a revamp. Was a friday night and at midnight maybe there were 10 people there. People only started arriving at 2am and by 3am it was somewhat crowded. But the whole vibe of the place feels like 1990's. I did meet a tall Brazilian guy and we started making out. He reached into my pants and started stroking the head of my dick, and I did the same for him. He was uncut and already very wet. He was so sensual and affectionate, it blew me away. Kissing my neck, gentle flicks of the tongue. We went to a corner and must have been there over an hour. I'm not really sure, I totally lost track of time. We pulled out both of our dicks and started stroking them against each other. He spit on his hand and was stroking me and hitting my "spot" so perfectly. He told me he was about to come. We climaxed together while we were flicking each others tongues. There was a lesbian couple that came up kind of close to us which was a little annoying because both our dicks were out. The lesbians were fingering each other pussies so I doubt they cared what we were up to. Afterwards I got the guys I was with Whatsapp and he went home. I was waiting for a taxi when an attractive guy approached me and offered me "redbull." I was slightly drunk at this time, and he took my hand and put some on it. Wow it was good. No burning at all REAL shit, not the fake ass shit you get in the US (which is why I never do "redbull" in the US). Just to clarify redbull not tina, which I would never do. He told me he had kids and asked if I did too. He said he could come back to my place and would give me head and fuck and he would bring redbull all for 200 reals. He put my hand over his cock which was semi-hard. Pushed my finger around his head and said he had a nice dick, and wouldn't I like to see it. By this time it was 3am. I was getting a little horny again from the redbull, but I told him that I didn't even have 200 reals on me but thanked him for his very generous offer. He gave me a wink and said he would be there the next night and to come back with the money. The next day the guy from Le Boy invited me to his building, but he said he was staying with his sister who was at home. So we went up to the roof deck where there was a small pool. Nobody else was there so we skinny dipped and sucked each other under the water. It was still the middle of summer in Rio and very warm out at night. We laid down next to each other, he put his arm around me and told me he felt like we were already a married couple. Wow it was so good with him. Brazilians are so sensual. Had such a great time. One thing about Brazilian guys though is they are very good at seduction, so when he tells me how we are gonna get married I don't take it seriously. Love is a game and Brazilians are very good players. He was leaving that night to go back to Buenos Aires, where he was studying medicine. If he had stayed I would like to have seen him more. During the week I went back to Rio G and it was not that busy. Maybe 40 guys. Went to the steam room again and met this very attractive, olive skinned guy with a beautiful dick that curved up a little. There was a 3some going on at one end of the sauna and he was sitting by himself. I sat next to him and we started stroking each other. He wrapped his foot around mine and liked rubbing his leg hair and feet against mine. He made me cum really hard. I was giving him head which was pure pleasure for me because his dick was so nice. I was stroking him and flicking my tongue against the underside of his head when he started cumming. His moaning was such a turn on for me. With his cum all over me we went to the showers. I could have stayed longer but decided to leave. Pizza Hut has a great all you can eat buffet for $10 USD so had dinner there (can only eat at the churrascarias so much!) I went to Club 117 on a Thursday around 3 pm because my flight out was at 10pm. When I first arrived there were only two guys working. One was a little skinny and immediately flashed me his cock and started following me around. The other was a gorgeous guy, white skinned with dark hair. Probably around 5'9, really nice body. He motioned to me with his eyes but didn't approach. I went to sit down in the video room. He came in and sat on the couch opposite me. By this time I was hard and unwrapped my towel and started stroking myself. He did the same and was looking at me while stroking. Meanwhile the other guy came and sat down next to me, but I told him not right now and he left. The the other one came over to me and we started stroking each other. I asked him how much he wanted and he said 100 reals. I didn't really think to negotiate since I was not sure what the going rate was. We got a room. He said he was top only and I wasn't in the mood to get fucked. I thought he would do oral but he didn't offer to do that either. I sucked him and he laid on top of me and started stroking me. It is hard to describe how perfect his body was. Was kind of hot to watch in the mirrors that they have in the rooms. He started kissing me slowly while jerking me and then started talking to me very sexy. I didn't understand exactly what he was saying (portuguese slang words, sounded something like give me your cum papi, shoot all over me) but his voice was so sexy to me and the way he was talking to me eventually pushed me over the edge and I came. He did not seem interested in cumming and we showered together and then he left. Although he was hot I felt like he was a slight bit cold afterwards. I am a very affectionate person and like to cuddle, etc. after sex, and I feel like he kept a wall up with being too intimate. In some ways that kind of played head games with me, because when you are with a sauna boy you never really know what they are feeling or thinking. Maybe someone knows, do the guys at saunas usually cum with you or no? Do they ask extra for it? I think maybe after my previous experiences in Rio the sauna felt a little hollow. I was into him but I don't know if he liked me or not, or he could also be straight. I went back down to the locker room and by this time there were a lot of guys arriving. While I was in the locker room I was approached by another guy who to me was absolutely stunning. Very masculine, opened his towel to show me his cock (nice and thick with a really large head). He started massaging my back, made a motion by rolling up his hand and hitting it into his palm and saying lets fuck papo. He asked for 150 reals and wanted to know how big my dick was and reached to my towel to start feeling it. That kind of surprised me because he said he was top only and some tops don't like to touch your dick, so I liked it that he was interested. My dick is nice, about 7 inches cut and was grabbing at it and feeling it up. I wasn't hard though because I had just cum. I feel like I would have had a better time with him, since he seemed to be into me (I realize that is their job but some seem more genuine than others). If I didn't have to leave to go to the airport I might have stayed for an hour and gone with him. He gave me his whatsapp number and if I go back to Rio I think I'll contact him. As soon as I left Rio to go back to my boring life in the United States, dealing with 50 conversations on grindr to find 1 hookup, I already miss Rio. The guys are honestly in my opinion the hottest guys in the world, and that is also because of their easygoing attitude and natural masculinity. Incidentally, I went to Cuba last year and hands down Rio has every city in the world beat by a mile in terms of guys and the gay scene. I had a great time exploring the city this time as well and went to some places I hadn't gone before, like Jardim Botanico. I also took a day trip to Buzios which was absolutely amazing, and went to the Sambadrome for the main Carnaval parade, which is a must-do experience if you get the chance in my opion.
