    It was all fantastic. It definitely exceeded my expectations. It was so interesting to learn about the city and immerse myself in its atmosphere alongside people from all over the world. Plus, the tour organizers (Rafa and Luca) are amazing and incredibly friendly! I highly recommend it!

Activity Options

When you book, you can choose between 2 options:

Lapa Pub Crawl

We'll kick off this Lapa pub crawl at Bar da Cachaça, right in the heart of the neighborhood. Ready to make the most of a true carioca night out?

As soon as we meet up, we'll get the night started with 5 shots of cachaça in different flavors, the perfect way to try one of Brazil's most iconic drinks while we break the ice with laughs and toasts.

Next, we'll dive into Lapa's most authentic side with stops at 2 bars with live music that set the rhythm for the night. You'll get a real feel for samba, and if you're up for it, you can even learn a few basic steps and let the infectious energy of Brazilian rhythms carry you away.

Then we'll head to the Arcos da Lapa, one of Rio's most famous spots, for a special stop to soak up the neighborhood's nightlife over a freshly made caipirinha. The perfect excuse to keep toasting the carioca night!

From there, we'll walk on to the famous Selarón Steps, one of the city's artistic symbols. It's the perfect place for photos and to take in the culture of this iconic corner of Rio de Janeiro. Cameras ready?

To finish in style, we'll end the night at Pub Kriok, where you can keep dancing to international hits. Plus, you'll take home a mini bottle of cachaça as a souvenir of this unforgettable night.

We'll say our goodbyes after 4 hours of good vibes.

Botafogo Pub Crawl

Choose this option and you'll discover the lively nightlife of Botafogo. At the designated time, we'll meet at 167 Rua Álvaro Ramos and set off on foot through the streets of this bohemian Rio neighborhood to see a different side of carioca nightlife.

During the tour, we'll visit 4 of Botafogo's most popular bars, spending between 40 minutes and 1 hour at each one. At every stop, you'll enjoy a shot of a typical Brazilian drink, like caipirinha, while you dance and meet new people.

After about 4.5 hours, we'll say our goodbyes at a central spot in Botafogo and wrap up the experience.
