I´m graduated in History and Tour Guide certificate in Cadastur. I have visited more than 40 countries, and has traveled almost all over Brazil. I love to meet new people and cultures. I love to tell the story of my city and the people who lived here and contributed to transform Rio into one of the most beautiful cities in the world. I will show you the Rio de Janeiro that goes beyond the natural beauty, we will discover the buildings, streets and squares, through the history of the town and the characters who lived here.
In small groups, we'll take you on a tour of the Santa Teresa neighborhood, which is perched on a hilltop with wonderful bars, shops, and views of the city of Rio de Janeiro.
We will reach the neighborhood on the famous Santa Teresa cable car. We will pass over the Arcos da Lapa, run all the way from the gondola to the end and get off at Largo dos Guimarães.
From there we will continue on foot passing through bars, restaurants and shops and graffiti to Parque das Ruinas.
We will then go down the Santa Teresa hill, until we reach the Selarón Staircase, built by the artist Jorge Selarón, famous for containing more than 200 steps with more than 2,000 tiles from more than 60 countries. We go to the staircase for photos and get to know a little bit about the life of your builder.
To pick up the Santa Teresa hill you have to buy a ticket that costs R$ 20,00 (twenty reais)
We will meet in front of Starbucks at Cinelandia Square
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
