Getting Around Rio

  • We recommend Uber for getting around. Santa Teresa's hills and narrow streets make driving stressful, parking is nearly impossible to find, and rides are very affordable here.
  • If this is your first time in Rio, stay in Leblon or Ipanema. Copacabana also works.
  • Taxis will be available from the event for the ride home.
