With All Due Respect. LOL
[QUOTE=SteveG75;2625599]I read a negative review about girl's attitude at Centaurus so I decided to stick with 4 x4. Left Rio to continue with my sight seeing trip. Here's a report to give back to the forum:
Rio is a butt man's heaven. If you like big butt, curvy, slightly thick, and darker skin girls, you come to the right place. I like the blanca, whiter & slender type, so it doesn't do well for me. There are blonde / blanca girls, but they come with a premium price.
For newbie, termas are the way to go. It's user friendly, especially when you don't speak the language. 4 x4 is recommended. The setup is a mix between HK bar in Tijuana, and an FKK. You get your bathrobe (you can check out the girls without changing, but everyone I saw in there were in their bathrobe), sit in a tiny bar with a bunch of girl, pick one, and go to the room. This make it pretty easy for anyone new. The pro: girls are friendly & eager to please. The con: girls here are not too hot, in my book. I read somewhere here that some member compare termas to FKK. They are similar in concept. However, compare them is like compare Brazil with Germany. FKKs are much cleaner, bigger, and girls quality are much better (given that I prefer smaller butt). Size wise, 4 x4 is about 1/4 compare to Tijuana's HK club, and much smaller compare to FKKs.
SW. I saw a lot of them at Mab & on avenue Atlantic (the road hugging the beach in Copacabana). Most are ugly!
Strip club, I checked out Las Vegas. Saw some ok girls, but it's small, cram, has only 1 small stage, and probably arm at ripping off tourist, so I decided not to come in.
For the benefit of newbie. I have been to most destinations (60+ countries). I believe right now, Colombia is the best in Latin American. Germany is the best in Europe, and Thailand & Philippine are the best in Asia.[/QUOTE]Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but to me Brazil has the hottest girls in the world bar none. I was at HK last week, Colombia 3 months ago, Costa Rica every month, and Brazil 4 times in the last 4 months. No where do you get more girls giving the GFE then Brazil. And with the Real hovering around 5. 5 to 1, Brazil is the cheapest place to monger. I'm about to post a long report on my last 4 trips to Brazil but to me, Solarium has the hottest girls with the most variety. I love 4 X4 but it is more big bunda, fake tits and ass girls. I will agree that all of the major termas in Rio need a good facelift and some new robes. The variety in Brazil to me is what makes it great. Of my 4 regular girls at Solarium. 1 is thin with small tits, one is a red head with a perfect natural body, one is a blonde with fake tits but not too big, and one is a blonde stunner, 21 years old. I know a lot of the girls personally and most of them are only doing this for a short time to make money. They are all early 20's. I love HK, but only 1 out of 4 give me the experience I'm looking for. Brazil it's about 90%. I've only had one bad experience out of about 30 at 4 X4, Solarium, and Monte Carlo over the last 4 months. I've also been to FKK's in Germany. I do love them as well. Just not as much as Brazil. Never been to Thailand, but that's up next.
4 Trips in 4 Months. I'm An Addict LOL
So I finally have some free time to write a full report on my trips to Rio. I live in NYC and flight prices prior to Nov. 15th have been around $850 on United out of Newark. Now I see they have jacked the prices up to almost $2000 RT for the foreseeable future which sucks. I'll break this report down by topics to try and give the most detail.
Transportation: Taxis and Ubers in Rio are super cheap compared to the US and Mexico. Taxis from GIG airport to Copa / Ipanema area are around $20-$25 for a 45 minute ride. Ubers run about $12-$15. I take Ubers to most places and with the exception of Ipanema / Copa to Barra de Tiujca Ubers run less than $3. To Barra it's about a $12 Uber. On my CC bill I had like 10 Uber charges under $1. That's unreal. Ubers are safer then taxis from what the locals tell me. In the beach area, Ubers are readily available 24 hours a day.
Where to stay: I am partial to Ipanema. I love the beach, the restaurants and bars, and the proximity to everything. I've rented apartments mostly on AirB&b and most of my experiences have been good. My first trip back, I was solo and rented a nice one bedroom apartment for $75 a night. The last 2 trips I've stayed in Penthouses with a friend, one right next door to Hotel Fasano with incredible views and one with a pool on the roof. Those ran about $350 a night for a 3 bedroom. Most of the hotels in Copa are dated and need full refurbs. Even the JW Marriott's room are garbage. The rooms at Fasano are super nice, but also super expensive. They will allow girls as long as they are registered to the room. The rooftop pool there is heated and has an incredible view.
Restaurants and Bars: Ipanema: Breakfast- Gringo Cafe has all the comforts of home. Omelets, waffles, pancakes, they have it all. Dinner- Garota De Ipanema, Torre, Spicy Fish, Satyricon, Oia, Churrasqueria RJ, Rayz. Copa: Restaurante Marius, Churrasqueria Palace Botofogo: Fogo de Chao Barra de Tijuca: All of the restaurants in the Village Mall are amazing. On a side note, good luck finding anywhere to watch American football on Sunday's. We tried everywhere and no one pays for the NFL ticket. Banana Jack's and Shenanigan's Irish pub were both friendly and put on the 2 games that are available on local cable.
Money exchange / ATM's: Not all debit cards are accepted at every bank. I use TD and have to use Banco Bradesco. ATM's all shut off at 10 pm for security reasons in Rio. I have an account with no ATM fees and the rate I get to take out money is right on with the current exchange rate. Cash is also a good way to get a good exchange rate. A lot of the jewelry stores are also cash exchanges. Hmmm. They will give you a few cents more then the going rate if you give them the new hundred dollar bills without any rips or pen marks. Some of the termas give a discount for cash which is why I exchange money this way.
Termas: I only frequent 3 of the big 4. I am partial to Solarium. I think that they have the most variety of beautiful girls. Most of the girls there are early 20's. I have 4 regular girls and all 4 of them are totally different. I have a blonde, 2 brunettes, and a redhead. There are usually 20-30 girls working. The best days I've found are Tues-Thurs. The place opens at 2 pm I believe but most girls arrive around 5-7 pm. Last call to take a girl and the bar close at 12:15 am Admission, a room with a girl for 40 minutes, and 2 drinks run about $110-$120. There is also a discount for using cash. Monte Carlo- Not a huge fan. Tried it on a Monday and there were only about 7 girls that I saw and we were the only 2 guys. I did find a Fake red head with a lot of tatoos who was not really my type but had a mind blowing session with so not a total loss. 4 X4- So many girls, most have big fake tits and asses and are darker but pretty much can find anything you desire. I feel like these girls are a lot more hardened and professional then Solarium. They also deal with a lot more locals who come to look and touch but not take them to a room and spend money on them. One thing I noticed there are a lot of the girls don't shave their legs but instead bleach them. I'm not a fan but to each his own. It is definitely a must see if it's your first trip. Best time to go is between 5 pm-10 pm. There must be 75-100 girls working a day. 4 X4 is located downtown about a 20 minute ride from Copa and Ipanema. The area around it seems pretty safe. I always get dropped off and then take a taxi or Uber out. To show you what's out there, my last trip I met a short girl with perfect fake tits and a tight little body. We got to talking and she is a PE teacher at a school in Leblon. Wish my teachers looked like her when I was young. LOL.
Websites: I have only tried [URL]Barravips.com[/URL]. There is a lot of photoshopping of the pictures, but I will say of the 6 girls my friends and I have ordered, only 1 wasn't above a 7. There is some serious talent on that site and prices are around $100 for an hour. Most will ask for cab fare or to call them an Uber. Seems like most of the girls live in Barra hence the name.
Soccer: I can't stress enough how cool it is to see a soccer game at Maracana Stadium. Flamengo is the biggest Rio team and they have some of the craziest, most passionate fans in the world. Even if you think you don't like soccer go to a game. It's an experience. You can always get tickets through hotel concierges or asking the right people. My driver has a great connect and gets us club seats for about $100 each which include food. I have sat in the endzone with all the crazies and as long as you're not rooting for the other team, it is safe.
Safety: I feel like there is a lot more of a police presence in Rio then when I used to come 10 years ago and go to Help. I walk around Ipanema at all times of night and feel safe. That being said, no sense taking chances. Leave the expensive jewelry and watches at home. I bought a $50 watch at Macy's that I call the Rio watch.
Non Pros: One of my friends dated a local girl who introduced us to the crew that throw all the best parties in Rio. For the record I am mid 40's but I party like I'm mid 20's. Every Friday and Saturday parties are set up at different locations in the rio area. They usually start at midnight and go till about 8 am the next day. They also throw parties at Dash Club in Ipanema and the rooftop of the Pestana Hotel in Copa. The girls at these clubs and parties are unreal. If you use Instagram, follow at beautydejaniero. That will give you an idea what I'm talking about. A lot of these girls speak pretty good English. It isn't easy to pull local girls but it is definitely doable. I have made friends with a lot of the local crew and have a great time partying with them. Funniest thing is I've run into a few Solarium girls at the parties. I always tell them it is our secret which they appreciate. They don't just allow randoms to these parties so you need to know someone who knows someone. LOL.
Overall I hope if you take nothing else from this report, it is that I love Brazil. The people, the beach, the soccer, the food, the nightlife, and most importantly the girls are bar none the best in the world. Once you visit, it make other destinations shit. I'm going to Jaco CR on Friday for the weekend and I'm not that excited. Girls charging $300 then trying to put a condom on me for a blowjob is just not that appealing compared to a night at Solarium. Obrigado for taking the time to read this.
Planning on coming down January or February
I plan on taking my first trip to Rio in January or February with friends. What are the best Thermas? Is the Balcony Bar still open in Lapa? What are the best girl friendly hotels that are close to the beach and have safes in the room?
