Why we publish screenshots, not star ratings
A five-star rating is the easiest thing to fake in tourism. A new profile, five bought reviews and done: the agency looks flawless. So we decided to show the raw material: the whole conversation, with the time in the corner, the Portuguese of someone tired after the tour, and the detail nobody would make up.
There are messages here saying the tide dropped and the speedboat trip was not what they hoped. There are people saying they gave up halfway and got their money back. That stays up because it is what separates proof from advertising: a showcase where everyone loved everything is a showcase nobody believes.
How these messages get here
A Oscar Indica não opera os tours — quem executa é o receptivo parceiro que o Oscar escolheu depois de ir lá e fazer o roteiro. O que a gente entrega é a escolha certa, e a única forma honesta de provar que a escolha foi boa é mostrar o que a pessoa escreveu quando voltou.
We publish with first name and city, just as the message arrived. Anyone who does not want to appear does not appear: just ask. And if you want to talk to someone who has already travelled, message us on WhatsApp and we will ask them if they are up for it.
Frequently asked questions
Are these reviews real?
These are screenshots of the conversations that reached our WhatsApp, published with the first name and city of whoever wrote. We do not rewrite, we do not correct the Portuguese and we do not delete the awkward part: there are messages here complaining about a tide that dropped and a tour that had to be cut short.
Why screenshots and not star ratings?
Anyone can buy stars. A conversation with times, the guide's name and details of the day is much harder to fake — and much more useful to someone deciding.
Do you publish bad messages?
We publish what arrives, including the critical ones. When the problem was ours, we fix it first and keep showing the conversation.
How do I see the messages for a specific tour?
Tap the tour name just below the title. Every tour with messages has its own page — the Maragogi ones are kept separate from the Gunga ones, for example.
Can I talk to someone who has already travelled?
You can. Message us on WhatsApp and we'll ask the person's permission; most are happy to reply.
