Rio de Janiero- update on Saunas Requested

[josh282282]

Hi All.

I'm off to Rio soon.  But it's been years since I've been to the Rio saunas and hired a garato. But its been since before the covid pandemic & I fear my knowledge base is outdated.  I need updated guidance on saunas. 

1) What are the names of the currently open gay saunas w garatos?

2) Which nights are best for which sauna? In the past most saunas had maybe two busy nights with mostly dead nights the other night.   In the distant past some wonderful man wrote out a brief week spreadsheet of the saunas and which nights they were busiest. Is there an updated one?

3) What is the current going rate for a programa?  

Love & hugs to all.

Josh

never heard of one near posto 9 (Ipanema)......is this similar to the 202 and 117 saunas (legal brothels) or a different concept?

The one by the beach is not the escort one, it’s the one locals and travelers go that want a free hook up.. less likely to find the super hot guys there cause usually you have to pay for those, but I lucked out once and met a hot guy there as I was about to leave and we had a great time. I forget the name but if you ask any guy in that area that looks “gay” they most likely will know.

The name of that escort-less sauna in Ipanema is Rio G Sauna. It’s on Rua Teixeira de Melo, halfway between the beach and the park.

Hey folks!

Thank you for the help & info.  It's very, very appreciated that you took the time to offer me help!  TBH, this is unlike the response  I got from a guy on this board I DM about Rio this week. Yes, he answered my DM but not only did he outright refuse to answer my question but was quite rude & inappropriate to me.   And it was just a question about saunas, nothing inappropriate at all! (Jeeze, why bother to respond at all then?).  

But your suggestions will be used! And off to Rio soon I will go....

Hugs to all

Josh
