Sitio Burle Marx Half-Day Trip

Embark on a half-day journey to Sitio Burle Marx, where we will explore a masterpiece designed by one of the leading figures in modern landscape architecture, departing from Rio de Janeiro.

Activity Details

At the scheduled time, our team will collect you from your accommodation in Rio de Janeiro for a trip to Sitio Burle Marx, situated approximately 50 kilometers (30 miles) to the southwest of the city.

This enchanting location is the brainchild of Roberto Burle Marx, celebrated for his innovative contributions to landscape design, which have characterized Brazil’s aesthetic landscape.

Burle Marx masterfully sought to fuse his distinctive style with elements of Cubism and Abstractionism, two significant art movements of the twentieth century, resulting in an exquisite collection of gardens adorned with a plethora of exotic flora.

As we stroll through the grounds, we will uncover fascinating insights into the life and achievements of this Brazilian architect. A visit to Burle Marx’s residence and his collection of folk art will also be part of our experience.

Ultimately, we will return you to your hotel in Rio de Janeiro, concluding the tour approximately four hours after our initial departure.
