GETTING TO & AROUND RIO
Rio is well connected and its international airport has
daily flights to most major South and North American and
European cities, as well as to several cities in Brazil. The
city is also linked by Brazil's long-distance bus network,
while a growing number of people also arrive here by
cruise ship. Getting around Rio is fairly simple. Taxis are
plentiful and cheap, and are the best option for visitors.
The city's extensive bus network can sometimes be daunting,
as it isn't always easy to decide which bus to take. Although
limited, the metro is efficient and is the most convenient
mode of traveling from Copacabana to the city center. It
is also possible to rent a car, but first-time visitors may
find driving here a little difficult.
