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.
We will make a walking tour in Lapa - most bohemian neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro.
We will begin in Cinelandia telling a bit about the history of the square, the Municipal Theater, the Nacional Library, etc.
We will walk towards Lapa through the beautiful Teatro Riachuelo, stop in front of Cecilia Meireles's room and talk a little bit about the work and life of this famous poetess, then we will go to Selarón steps, built by artist Jorge Selarón, famous for containing over 200 steps with more than 2,000 tiles from over 60 countries. Let's go up the stairs and learn about the life of its constructor.
Continuing we will make a stop in front of the famous Arcos da Lapa for photos and finish our tour entering the modern Metropolitan Cathedral of Rio de Janeiro.
In front of Starbucks Praça Floriano, 7 - Cinelândia I will have a black umbrella
