I really feel an enormous sense of joy doing what we do.
That’s as much true for being on the road as it is for planning a trip meticulously. I believe that traveling can be transformative and can make us look at life through a whole new perspective, so we try to go above and beyond to provide everyone who comes to us with unforgettable experiences.

And I'm not just saying that. I work in the tourism industry for 20 years now, traveled to over 30 countries, and been part of some of the largest international tourism trade shows. It all started when I was a teenager in Brazil. Inspired by a pen pal (remember those?) in New Zealand, I convinced my parents to let me be an exchange student after I planned the whole thing by myself. When I came back home from Australia, I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.

I started to work in tailored travel at Donato Viagens, my biggest partner until today, and after almost 10 years, it grew to the point that it needed to become its own separate company. Imagine Real was born out of the belief that there is no better itinerary than one that’s handcrafted.

To me, the ideal trip is made specially to fulfill your desires. And I'm here to listen and to make those desires become reality.

Nice to meet you.
