Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Axel Heyst]

I'm definitely not a Mabs fan. IMO it's a sad place with a bunch of very old gringo guys, newbietourist and expensive low quality GPS. I only go there if a buddy insists on having a beer there.

I think an American be Forrester bought the place in 2014. I just heard from a friend that Mabs got new owners. A Brazilian lady and her two sons. It seems they want to earn a lot of money and are raising the prices a lot. With Brazilian logics they don't understand that they will probably get less customer. Anyway, that's just what I heard.

Yeah, I checked out Mabs on a Friday night around midnight in October. I was not expecting much and that is exactly what I got, not much. The place was two thirds empty. There was one sexy girl in the whole place, but she was already with a local guy. It looked like they knew each other quite well. There were a handful of girls standing just outside the bar on the sidewalk and one or two occasionally walked inside the bar. To be kind they were "plain" at best.

I sat down at a table and hung around for about 20 minutes. Then I left. I did not even order a drink. I hung around outside for a little while longer thinking maybe the sexy girl would end her conversation with the guy or maybe some new talent would show up. But nothing changed. I had already been with one of my repeat girls earlier in the night and it was a great session, so I did not really care. I mean if there had been some sexy girls hanging around I probably would have done a 2 fer. But the plain truth was Mabs Had No Viable Girls! Nada. Which is very strange IMHO because the place looks good and has a great location. It should be a rockin' bar with plenty of sexy FL's. Something is amiss, but I don't know what it is. Who cares. It is only a little sad when I hear about how good the area was 10 years ago.

Before the trip, I got the CPF number specifically to get a phone chip easily, and it failed. I think it was the SEP number? (fuck if I remember all that bullshit) that prevented me from completing the registration process. Turned out that even with CPF you can't get the chip unless you're a Brazilian, so I had to go to the fucking TIM store (the Claro line was 10 people deep) and get the chip with my passport and waste 2 hours of my life. Never fucking again! And yes, I know it's supposed to be easy in Centro, but I'the still have had to get to Centro first, so what's the point?

Nice reports from both you and GoneFishin.

Regarding TIM chip. If you don't have any CPF, go to a Lojas Americanas and buy a TIM chip from the TIM seller who will activate it for you. Another option is to buy a TIM chip on the street and call TIM and activate it (this option needs patience because there the staff answering might not be the smartest).

If you do have a CPF you can very easily activate the TIM chip yourself in just a few minutes. Along with the chip comes instructions. Something like:

https://planos.minhaconexao.com.br/t...ar-chip-da-tim

The place to buy TIM chip isn't at a TIM store as they almost always are out of stock. They sell them at pharmacies, Lojas Americanas, the news paper kiosks or street vendors. In December I paid 12 reais. No need to go to Centro.

Thanks good report.

Returned from Rio a week ago. Spent 9 blessed days. Here is the recap.

Was joined for a trip by a non-monger friend at the last moment, so didn't get to meet any Rio veterans while there. Looking back, I should've avoided budding up with a non-likeminded individual, but I didn't have a heart to say no. Here are a few thoughts (I won't bother you about some touristy things we did).

Sexual health / mindset.

I'm in my late 50's and not in my prime shape if I'm being honest. Still, I don't know if the 2-year hiatus from my last trip is to blame, but I found that this lull in activities made it even more difficult to me to cum. Took Maca for 1. 5 months prior to the trip, and no considerable improvements. Taking or not taking Viagra didn't make much of a difference either. Basically, when I tried to have sex more than once a day, the second time became more of a chore, and I didn't have enough leche anyway, so it wasn't too enjoyable..

...

So here we go. In terms of our never-ending discussion here: yes, I could've saved a few bucks, but it wasn't my priority, LOL. Seriously, there is no such things as a right way or wrong way of doing things, it's just your way and everyone else's.

Good job! Thanks for the update.

Yep! Diversity in hobbying POVs, definitely make for a richer landscape.

Money.

Copa is the best bet to change money. 5-5. 2 are to $. It was less than 5 in Barra, Centro or Tijuca. My Schwab account offered about the same rate from what I can tell. Used credit cards in stores, restaurants, etc. Use reals in termas, don't pay with credit cards or exchange dollars there.

Hilton is GF now!

A welcome surprise to me was that they do allow guests now. I tried to sneak a girl in first, but the guard caught up with us at the elevator and made me register her at the front desk. Also took her to a pool with no issues. A huge difference compared to 2 years ago. At this point, I can wholeheartedly recommend Hilton. The rooms are a bit dated, but great location, free breakfast and lounge access for Gold / Diamond members, ocean-view rooms and 2 pools open until 8 pm.

Soccer game.

Went to Maracana on Sunday Flamenco vs. Vasco. Flamenco won 1:0. We were sitting in the Vasco section (not wearing their shirts, LOL). Huge police presence and no shenanigans during or after the game.

CPF.

Before the trip, I got the CPF number specifically to get a phone chip easily, and it failed. I think it was the SEP number? (fuck if I remember all that bullshit) that prevented me from completing the registration process. Turned out that even with CPF you can't get the chip unless you're a Brazilian, so I had to go to the fucking TIM store (the Claro line was 10 people deep) and get the chip with my passport and waste 2 hours of my life. Never fucking again! And yes, I know it's supposed to be easy in Centro, but I'the still have had to get to Centro first, so what's the point?

Restaurants.

The most memorable were Marius, Churrascaria Palace (as always), and Gran Parilla, a great Argentinian spot in Barra. Both Marius and Palace are in the $50-60 range and worth it if just for the experience (but the food was superb, too). Contemporanio, on the other hand, was a disappointment this time. Blunt food, and 50% of the menu was unavailable.

Girls.

I took it easy this time around and had a few repeats rather than just looking for a new pussy every time.

Flavia from Solarium, are $800 with a few drinks. Liked that "mignon" a lot, so repeated with her at Bambina motel in Botafogo, then took her back to Hilton to relax at the pool. Highly recommend Bambina. I took their top room with the pool and hydro (R600 for 3 hours), had a lot of fun with her (too much actually, as my condom got torn to shreds, LOL). They have cheaper rooms of course, but fuck it, I'the saved a lot of money staying put in the last 2 years. I thought about Panda, but they wanted 750 for 6 hours, and I didn't need 6 hours anyway.

Sauri from 4 X4. Are $600+ with 3 or 4 drinks. A fun Japanese girl and a firecracker! Refused to let me go until she cummed too. Repeated at the hotel for another great session.

Carol, massagista in Tijuca (and a trained nurse, BTW). Highly recommended despite totally not being my type. She's a big girl (not fat, just big) with excellent massage skills in addition to all other skills (her black kiss is heaven). Are $150 and highly recommended. Repeated with her, too.

Alice from Onyx Terapia.

I wanted Isis, but she was occupied, so took Alice who also has stellar reviews on Gparena. Didn't regret. There is just something about her making me feel from the get-go like a long-awaited boyfriend, LOL. Are $200.

Carla from Eden Spa on Nossa Senhora. Loved that girl, but only discovered her on the last day, so no repeat, unfortunately. Highly, highly recommended!

A fellow ISG member and I decided to check this place out since no one else found it interesting enough to explore this new tidbit of info to the Rio forum.

From DrAxxx

"Realengo.

55/60 BRL one way with uber From Copacabana. There are 2 boate here Das Flores Av. Marechal Fontenelle, 5635 and Babilonia Av. Santa Cruz, 9. https://www.instagram.com/clubebabilonia/ clubs are close and you can walk from one to the other. Entry fee is 15 at Das Flores and 10 at Babilonia, both clubs have same prices for fuck 85/30 min and 145/1 HR. Das Flores have cabine with shower in the corridor for the 30 min and room with shower for 1 HR. Das Flores is always full of girls, been there 4 times and every nights there are over 30/35 girls. Good line up and good perfomance, girls don't upcharge for anal. For me this is the best nightclub in all Rio. "

Its been kind of our thing to check out the lesser talked about places in Brazil. We did the "Farm" in Campinas and we were rewarded with excellent day action so we rolled the dice again on this place out in the middle of nowhere. Only visited Das Flores, we left Ipanema around 9 pm using Uber and as stated 60 BRL, amazingly we did not have trouble getting a ride so far out of town. Its like 75 min ride West away from everything written about in this forum, LOL. The uber pricing just proves what a good value this service is in Brazil, $12 split between 2 guys. Its a ride so sit back and chill, you pass many small towns and open highway there is a military base close to the club. We arrive around 1030 pm and found the place typical for a blue collar club. Surprisingly, it was clean, organized and spacious, I was expecting a more rough venue. Temperature controlled and really nice experience for the effort involved. About 30 girls more arrived after 11 pm when the club started to fill up. They give you a sheet a paper to fill in your purchases so don't lose it. Beers were cheap don't remember pricing but everything here is excellent bang for the buck. I found about 5 of the girls doable and picked one GND type and at 145/ HR the room, shower and experience was as nice as anything I have had in Brazil. My buddy was happy with his selection as well. The staff enjoyed having us as it seemed outside of locals they don't get many folks from the Southern Zone. My girl asked me why I was there since there were far better clubs in Ipanema. I just laughed and tried to explain the "explorer" mindset but doubtful she fully understood.

Now, would I return. Depends, you are leaving plenty of easy action closer to your hotel, airbnb. But if friends wanted some adventure with a almost guaranteed good time then yes, I would return to the place. No need to arrive before 10 pm. Soon after 10pm was s good time to arrive and scope the place out, girls and enjoy some beers before the club fills up. Don't select because the better ladies arrive soon after the guys.

GF.

As I am sure you are aware, escort sites are only one way to go and in RJ & SP they certainly have lookers ready and willing to provide excellent service. But in RJ there are Termas, my preferred venue, and lots of prives for less expensive thrills and service. In normal times I prefer sourcing my girls in brick and mortar establishments like the Termas in RJ, Boates in SP, and of course my beloved Go Go's in BKK & MNL.

No, no, I'm not speaking about escort website and establishments like the Termas. I'm speaking about a semi pro, or a totally non-pro girls that I found on Instagram or Tinder. Like a girl that works at Carrefour, another one that have own small clothe shop, a flight attendant (that was just sacked because she showed up at work a little bit drunk), students and so on. With some luck and a 1 week of sweet talks before arrival, I usually have some contacts. Then when we meet, they stay all night and then we keep in touch. And sometimes we repeat if we had a great time together. Of course, they are being paid for the time spent with me but it's not like an escort "all night price", more like what you usually pay for a 2 hours to the girl from Termas or a Go Go bar, or something like that. If I get lucky, usually I met 3-4 semi-pro girls and the rest of my 2 weeks trip is meeting more "pro orientated" girls. But almost never a girl from a bar like a Go Go bar, and never from an escort agency.

But Rio seems to be a different game compared to Asia and Africa where I have a big experience. Which have it's own charm. Exploring the unknown is always interesting and more emotional. I don't know, I'll see after a month.

But on my last trip in October and my upcoming April / May trip you will most likely find me at the Boates and Termas on any given night or repeating with the girls I already know.

I arrive on 29 April and will stay for 2 weeks in Rio. It will be a pleasure to exchange some experience with you on a couple of beers. Same for other members of the forum. If you are in Rio that time of the year, let me know on PM.

On the subject of great deals, I heard from a friend in Real Estate that Recreio condos are going for $300 k reais, which is like $60 k USD!

I hear that you can buy a house in Araurama for $100 k Reais, which is $20 k USD.

Great deal. If you keep in perspective how much these women make a month busting their ass at a regular job, it helps when you negotiate prices. I have a 19 year old friend who works 6 days a week, 10 hours a day for like 1400 reais a month. I was really tempted to offer her 1500 a month to come over for sex 2 nights a week.

Yesterday I had the bad idea to try: https://www.liferiodejaneiro.com/.

I choose Michelle on the Copa massage center.

She was really not into it. Too mechanics, too cold, and finish the massage after only 30 min instead of 1 HR. Didn't want to waste my time to disagree.

I met some guys from the whatsapp group at 4 x4. It was slow for a Monday, but still had some solid choice. Had a very good session with Gabriella. Tongue deep in the throat, very crazy sex, well like a brazilian godess.
