OTHER TIPS

• Do not drink tap water! You’ll easily find bottled water everywhere.

• Avoid travelling alone and if possible take local friends along with you while roaming on the streets, especially at night.

• Yellow seats (on buses and trains) are for disabled people, elderly or pregnant women.

• Run, walk, hire a tandem or pedal a swan boat around Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon (lagoa), either during the day or at night!

• Tipping is not compulsory and also not expected from the local people, and 10% is usually included on your bill.

• Eat, eat and eat! Churrasco, tapioca, black beans and rice.. hmmm
