Activity Overview

Richly endowed with history, Rio is a fascinating place to explore and one of the best ways to do this is on foot.


This half-day walking tour through Rio de Janeiro’s city center offers a rich glimpse into the city’s history and Olympic legacy. Guided through narrow lanes and alongside colonial-era buildings, the tour includes visits to notable churches, cultural institutions, and historic squares. It allows participants to immerse themselves in the architectural beauty, heritage, and stories that shaped Rio, providing both cultural depth and a sense of the city’s evolving urban landscape.

Explore sites like Metropolitan Cathedral, Candelaria Church, São Bento Monastery, the "Travessa do Mercado", and the House France-Brazil, Mauá Square and Olympic Boulevard. This is a different kind of walking tour which gives you a feel for the legends and stories woven through the narrow streets and old buildings of downtown Rio.
