Members Latbear4blk Posted March 1, 2023 Members Posted March 1, 2023 Have you tried Google Fi, guys? I think you have to be residing in the US to get access. It worked quite well in Bogotá, this April I will try it in Rio. Quote

There are actually less garotos at the saunas during Carnaval than there are during the lead up to it. An occasional tourist wouldn’t really notice this, though. Quote

Menaughty Posted March 2, 2023 Author Posted March 2, 2023 Can anyone please guide me what are the best time and days to go to Lagoa, 117 & 202? From my research on this forum, Tuesday seems very busy for 117. Wednesday is slow for 202. Sat and Sun are good days for lagoa. But I would love to have updated info? Quote
floridarob Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 I was just there a couple of weeks ago.....it's a fluid guess dependent on rain, what parties at saunas or other parties around the city, season, etc.... But Wed was an excellent night at 202, Tuesday is still 117's night, Meio Mundo can be good on Friday......and 202 fri or sat, flip a coin. I think I've lost interest in 117, everyone has their own taste and point of view of which sauna is better 😉 Quote

Members davet Posted March 4, 2023 Members Posted March 4, 2023 Is Wed. still 202's free cabin day? The wait there can be pretty long too. Quote

Popular Post Menaughty Posted March 25, 2023 Author Popular Post Posted March 25, 2023 I decided to post here as this is my original thread. Hello everyone, I am back from my 11 day trip to Brazil. I feel sick, I threw up yesterday, I feel better now. On top of that I have a sore anus. Let me begin by saying, now I understand why everyone raves about Brazil here in the forum I am not much of a writer, so I will try to keep it brief but I do realize the benefits for sharing information especially for newbies like me. It helped a lot, So I really want to thank all the people who have shared knowledge about their Brazil trips. I did 5 nights in Sao Paulo and 6 nights in Rio. Solo Trip. I was super nervous, I have been to other countries but for some reason, Brazil was alway regarded as unsafe everywhere. Anyways lets get to the point. I want to let you know that this review is from a first time Brazil visitor and not a seasoned one. From Day 1-4 I went to Lagoa. My Oh my. It was delicious! haha. I know some people who have been to Brazil multiple times have mentioned that Lagoa is not the same anymore in terms of boys but for a first timer like me, it was amazing!! The only day it was kinda disappointing to me was Sunday at lagoa (I was there thu-sun) in terms of boys. I really liked the staff there too, very helpful. There was this one garoto whose name started with 'H' was such a sweetheart, he ended up becoming my regular. One thing to note, calling an uber To Lagoa is almost impossible. I had so many drivers cancel the ride. I think it is because of the confusing turn maybe. So what I used to do was call the uber to the market 'Remax' which was on the next street and stay in the market, until uber comes. Both the hotel people and lagoa people always told me to never take my cellphone out in public. On Monday day 5, I give myself some rest.Ooofff. A bottom needs to eat as well. Lowkey jealous of all the tops. I would do light breakfast, then douche after a couple of hours, have my fiber pills and have dinner after the sauna visit. On Day 6, Tuesday. I took the bus to Rio. It was through Flixbus. Really good bus but crappy wifi. After reaching Rio and freshen myself up. I was ready to go to 117 on their famous tuesday. Very nice front desk person, and he explained to me in english. I then made my way to explore the building. To my disappointment, it is such a run down, old looking building with mostly old looking rooms. But the selection of garotos was phenomenal there. Muscular!! A bottom's heaven...lol On Day 7, Wednesday. I went to 202. This was their free cabin day and it was packed!! I have never spent this much time at a sauna, but that includes the wait times for the room. The building is worse than 117 but the rooms are slightttllyy better. On Day 8, Thursday. I checked Meio Mundo but it was dead, probably on the wrong day. The guy was nice enough for me to check out the place before I pay. I went to 117 then. Following days I switched between 117 and 202. I don't know which one is Junior at 202 but the young guy on the front desk who is probably the son of the older finer gentleman is sooo cute. Other things to note: I did uber for everything as this was my first time. Maybe i was a little too cautious. I used Uber black. I used Airbnb experiences for touristy things I stayed at hotels in both SP (Ibis Styles Centro) & Rio (Royal Regency Palace Hotel). I did not intend to bring anyone to my room. I got a cheap alternate cellphone but I was not able to get a sim at GRU airport without a brazilian document, so I had to go to a mall and go to the vivo store to get the sim. They speak Portuguese but if you speak Spanish, you can get by for a short visit. Don't get me wrong when I say 'run down building'. I was expecting 117 and 202 to look like Thermas Barcelona & Lagoa. Having said that neither thermas bcn or lagoa are palaces but you would understand what I am talking about when comparing to 117 or 202. The boys charged $R 150 - 200. I did not negotiate. Brazil is a beautiful country, a must visit. As long as you are aware of your surroundings, you are good. I would love to go again! Don't let anything discourage you from visiting.

Members Riobard Posted March 26, 2023 Members Posted March 26, 2023 Great report. I had recently referenced the Remax convenience store for Über purposes, so glad you also discovered it. Word to the wise for others: its closing time may precede your target ride time. I think it’s Saturday 20:00, other days 21:00, and Sunday closed. Quote

Members Tomasian Posted March 27, 2023 Members Posted March 27, 2023 When you say you got sick, was it because of too much fun? I had a stye and the flu when i visited Brazil for the first time in 2018. And was the sore anus from douching or from the big dicks you shoved up in there, lol. Sounds like you had a great time. 👍 Quote

Members pauleiro Posted March 28, 2023 Members Posted March 28, 2023 When in SP, I stay in the Heritage hotel which is very close to Lagoa (5 minutes walk). 3 star hotel with very good breakfast. Reasonnable prices. 122 rua Fernando de Albuquerque Menaughty 1 Quote
babybear2 Posted March 28, 2023 Posted March 28, 2023 yes, I like the boys in 117 most, but its room is the worst for a few reasons (1) pillow missing (2) the bed is too low, not easy to have sex in any position if someone knows the owner, please tell them to fix that floridarob 1 Quote
Members mixer17 Posted March 29, 2023 Members Posted March 29, 2023 I stayed in an AirBnb in my last trip to SP. Literal 3 minute Walk to the sauna. I used Ubers for my day trips, went home to freshen up and walked to Lagoa and walked home. Usually stopped by a store on the way back to the airbnb to buy dinner or snacks. Just walk confidently, dress simply, no flashiness. Quote
