Description

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the General Osório subway station to start this free tour of Copacabana and Ipanema. You'll get to know two of the most famous neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro!

We'll start by walking along the promenade of Ipanema Beach. We'll admire the huge mountains that surround this white sand bay and we'll see the Cagarras Islands. As you admire the beauty of this Carioca spot, you'll understand why it's been declared a World Heritage Site.

Great & informative Tour

We had this tour with Lola, a Rio local and it felt like a real cool trip with friends and fun. She knows a lot and provides you with interesting info - and doesnt shower you with boring history facts, although we also learned sth about the history of Brazil, Rio and how the people live their lives. Very nice tour - we immeadiately booked another one with her
