5Great fun with fantastic guide
Cadu is a wonderful guide. He is funny, witty and very friendly. One of the things I loved the most is that he is very eager to share little anecdotes, so you can learn about his culture. I love it when learning about a culture and having fun go together.lt was a great and authentic experience in the Lapa, the bohemian heart of Rio

About Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro sweeps between mountains and ocean, a city of famous beaches, granite peaks, samba rhythms and a carnival known around the world.
Christ the Redeemer stands with open arms atop Corcovado, looking down on the city, and cable cars climb Sugarloaf Mountain for views across Guanabara Bay. Below, the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema are the stage for daily life, with volleyball, kiosks and the wave-patterned promenade, while Leblon and Arpoador extend the strip.
