first visit in Rio

Featured Replies

Hi,

I am coming to Rio for the first time in June 2023.

There is a lot of good information here, but maybe not so recent, so I decided to write for help ;).

First, of course, is the hotel recommendation. I would appreciate any suggestions for good gay/gay friendly hotels.

Second is the gay guide. Where can I find a nice gay guide that could show me the city during the day and maybe show me some night life as well.

Maybe also 2 practical questions: how can I get the local sim card (airport?) and where can I safely exchange some money (cash in USD).

Last, but not least, I am interested in young twinks. Any advices where is the best place to find them (escorts welcome ;) ).

Thanks all in advaance for any help and comments.

If my memory serves me correctly, this question has been addressed here within the past six months or prior to.  Check previous posts regarding lodging.

There's a website, gaycities.com.  If the information alludes to post-COVID, it'll be helpful to you.  Is SPARTACUS GUIDE still in print?

Maybe also 2 practical questions: how can I get the local sim card (airport?) and where can I safely exchange some money (cash in USD).

This has been addressed previously here.  Check past posts!

A few are at the saunas, but very, very few.  That's all that I can render here.

Thanks all in advance for any help and comments.  You are welcome.  I hope that what I wrote will give you some guidance.  But do read and/or reread previous posts.

You also might want to check out: companyofmen.com.  It's the "other site" from which this one is an off shoot of past years.  I have been a member of both for a good while.

Do enjoy yourself and do follow the guidance and advice that you've gleaned from this site and the other if you manage to access it!

I come back because you always post your trip reviews and they are incentivizing.
