paquetá is a neighborhood-island in the center of guanabara bay, not far from mainland rio de janeiro - yet, it is the lifestyle found on the island, not even the fact that it is surrounded by water, that makes paquetá arguably the most peculiar of all the carioca neighborhoods. home to dirt roads and horse carriages, this particularly charming part of rio is unique in every respect, including the total absence of cars - being bikes, moto bikes, and carriages the only transportation available on the island, quadracycles are an additional option beloved by all who visit this part of rio just for fun. differently from other parts of rio where these types of locomotion are exclusively available on holidays and sundays, on paquetá quadracycles are available every day - easy to find, they can be rented immediately after disembarking on arrival, near the ferry terminal. |
