About this activity

Enjoy a 5-hour tour to the city of Niteroi.

Located in a short distance from downtown Rio, the city is known for its busy harbor, quiet pace, beautiful lookout points and the artwork done by architect Oscar Niemeyer.

The easiest way to get there is by crossing the Guanabara Bay – which can be done by car through the Rio-Niterói Bridge. This path is already a tourist attraction as it allows you to have a panoramic city view of Rio de Janeiro.

We visit the famous sites, such as the Teatro Popular, the Fundação Oscar Niemeyer, the Memorial Roberto Silveira, the Praça JK and the Centro Petrobras de Cinema Brasileiro,

The highlight of the tour is the Museu de Arte Contemporânea, the MAC. With its interesting and inventive shape, the MAC is considered one of the greatest works done by famous architect Oscar Niemeyer.

Tour guide, entrance to the MAC and roundtrip transfer included.
