A good option to get to know some beautiful parts of Rio is planning one or more free walking tours according to disponibility - Tours are offered in multiple zones of the city and are an easy, cheap and immersive way of truly getting to know the city on a budget.

After the morning cultural walk, a snack at confeitaria colombo is a historical and artistic way to sate one's appetite and have a social cofee like the cariocas in one of the oldest and most important confectioneries from imperial Rio de Janeiro.

The afternoon is a perfect time to visit Paço Imperial in Praça XV, central area of Rio - Beautiful expositions and a bistrô are gifts bestowed upon visitors and residents interested in this architectural treasure from centuries past.
