Rio de Janeiro: Guided Santa Teresa & Selaron Steps Walking Tour
About this experience
Meet at Cine Odeon, right across from the Cinelândia Metro Station. While the tram through the Lapa Arches isn’t running, you can take a bus to Santa Teresa. Walk through the cobblestone streets and see a part of Rio that still reflects its past.
Santa Teresa is known for its mix of local culture and art. Many artists live and work in the area, giving it a creative feel. In the evenings, it’s a popular spot for Rio’s bohemian crowd.
Visit Ruins Park (Parque das Ruínas) for a view of the city and stop by local galleries run by neighborhood artists.
End your walk at the Selarón Steps, a colorful staircase created by Chilean artist Jorge Selarón to celebrate Brazil’s 1994 World Cup win. Santa Teresa offers a different, memorable side of Rio.
