Olympic Boulevard Tour and AquaRio
Description
Discover the legacy of the Olympic Games and enjoy one of the most modern and animated areas of Rio de Janeiro with this tour of Olympic Boulevard and AquaRio.
Olympic Boulevard Tour and AquaRio
You'll be picked up from your hotel or meeting point at the chosen time before walking to the port area of Rio, which was completely restored for the Olympic Games celebrated in the city in 2016. This revitalized area has transformed into one of the most modern and lively districts of what is known as the ‘carioca’ city.
First, it's on to the largest aquarium in South America: AquaRio. Here, you can explore local fish life and encounter over 8,000 marine animals from more than 350 different species around the world. The largest tank is over seven meters deep!
After visiting AquaRio, we will stroll along the wide Olympic Boulevard, enjoying spectacular views of the Guanabara Bay, while our local guide shares insights about the history of this beautiful avenue.
Next, we will catch the tram to the port and visit the Kobra Mural, a giant graffiti artwork designed by Brazilian street artist Eduardo Kobra. Spanning over 30,000 square feet of color, it has become one of the city's main attractions.
At the end of the tour, we will return you to your original pickup point in Rio.
