Rio 8/28-9/3 ... first time since 2008 ..... sauna advice please

[cktb2793]

My husband and I are going to Rio 8/28 to 9/3 for the first time since 2008.  Previously we liked Club 117 best.  Had also been to Point 202 and another sauna that i don’t think is there anymore.  Never been to Mundo.  We hire the guys separately and we both like to bottom with them.  Any advice on how everything is now would be appreciated.  Will there be a good amount of hot boys available during that time of year?

Not much has changed since your last visit in 2008, ten years ago.

However, Pointe 202 is currently more active and often has many good looking garotos available.  

Most garotos and clients now have smart phones that were not so popular when you were last in Brazil.   That should make communicating with the garotos easier if you know how to use a translator (assuming that you do not speak Portuguese).  

Also, getting around in Rio is about the same for using the metro but you now have Uber which is quite reliable and convenient and less expensive than cabs. 

Other than for the city being a little more dangerous than it was ten years ago, you will like the place.

I agree, Point nowadays has better looking guys than 117, however, if you prefer a certain type of boy, 117 might have them in bigger numbers, so the best approach is go to both and decide which one is your thing. 117 should be tried on a Tuesday and Point on a Wednesday. Weekends? Try Sao Paulo or on a longer shot, Porto Alegre. If you must remain in Rio over the weekend, the only option is a place called The Week, you must be into techno/trance, is also a good pick-up place with plenty of hot boys, however you must be under 35, otherwise don't even bother. 

Another big change in Rio is the night-life, what was already weak became non-existent. The subway got a lot bigger, if you take into consideration only the Zona Sul (as you should), more than double the extension. The city also became even more violent, the favela tours, compared with ones from the past, became a lot more eventful, so to speak.
