When I created Turista FullTime in 2014, my main goal was to share stories and experiences from around the world.
A few years later, in 2019, I became an Airbnb host and started welcoming guests from all over the world to Rio de Janeiro, personally taking care of their tours and transfers.
This hands-on experience showed me that both my blog readers and the travelers I hosted were looking for more than just simple travel tips. They needed close support and a well-structured plan to organize each stage of their trips and turn their dreams into real experiences.
It was precisely to better serve both audiences that Turista FullTime Viagens was born — a travel agency that brings to every customized itinerary the same attentive and passionate perspective that has always been at the heart of the blog.
Flights, hotels, tours, transfers, tickets, travel insurance, and more - everything arranged to complement your trip perfectly.
No ready-made tours here. Each trip is created with care and attention to what truly matters to you.
Explore Rio through its flavors, landscapes, and local experiences.
Simple, flexible itineraries covering the most iconic attractions and authentic Dutch experiences.
Find the ideal cruise itinerary — tailored to your interests, schedule, and travel rhythm.
The main reason is simple: I’m a traveler just like you.
I’ve explored destinations across four continents, lived eight years in Europe, and today – as a Carioca at heart – I welcome visitors from all over the world here in Rio.
This experience allows me to combine the insight of someone who’s been there with the expertise of a professional travel curator.
Every journey I design is one of a kind — just like the traveler behind it.
Tips and insights from someone who’s explored the world and knows how to turn inspiration into action.
Every detail is planned with care - as if I were planning my own trip.
Your preferences aligned with thoughtful, practical suggestions.
Guidance on currency exchange, insurance, and cards like Wise or Nomad — plus full support with documents and trip planning.
Over the years, through my blog and travel agency, I’ve helped couples design their dream trips, families live unforgettable experiences across Brazil, and solo travelers explore Europe with confidence.
The stories shared by those who traveled with Turista FullTime Trips show how thoughtful planning turns a trip into a lifelong memory.
Publicado em Isabel CastilloTrustindex verifica se a fonte original da avaliação é Google. I highly recommend Regina Oki. Prior to our trip to Rio de Janeiro and Foz do Iguaçu during this Thanksgiving holiday, I had not worked with a travel agent. After our 10 day family trip organized by Regina, I hope we are able to work together from this point forward. Regina is very knowledgeable about travel and she went above and beyond in planning our family trip. She knew we were going during a Brazilian holiday so she scheduled tours in Rio on certain days where we did not feel the long lines. At just the right time, she had us travel to Foz after the holiday so seeing the waterfalls in Argentina involved a 30-minute border crossing instead of the 3-4 hours the tour operator explained some people had to endure during the holiday. Regina checked in on us a couple times to make sure things were running smoothly and made us feel like we could reach out to her if we encountered any type of complication which we didn't. The trip Regina planned for us was one of the best family vacations we have taken. Before she started planning for us she sent us a questionnaire and planned the trip with the right balance we wanted. Busy but not too busy. After speaking with us, she was able to adjust the tours to just the right amount. She provided information we were not aware of prior to our trip making everything run smoothly. We cannot recommend Regina enough. We are so grateful for such a beautiful and memorable trip and we are looking forward to working with her again for our 2026 family trip to Europe.
