Itinerary
Uncover Rio’s creative soul on the Rio Urban Arts Walking Tour, a vibrant journey that weaves together street art, history, and culture. Start at the iconic Copacabana Palace Hotel before hopping on the metro to explore the bohemian Gloria neighborhood. Marvel at the world-famous Selaron Steps—a kaleidoscopic mosaic masterpiece—before heading to Praça Mauá, the gateway to Rio’s bustling port and home to the futuristic Museum of Tomorrow.
Stroll along the Olympic Boulevard, where colossal murals—including the record-breaking ‘Etnias’—bring Rio’s multicultural heritage to life. End your tour at Pedra do Sal, a historic site pulsing with samba rhythms and deep African roots, perfect for soaking up local music and a cold beer.
This trip is ideal for families and anyone eager to see Rio beyond the postcards. The unique selling point: an insider’s look at Rio’s street art scene and cultural hotspots, guided by a local expert who ensures you leave with both inspiration and practical tips for further exploration.
