Walking Tours of Central Rio de Janeiro

Saturday June 3, 2006
Rio de Janeiro Visitors to Rio de Janeiro throng to the beaches and the spectacular attractions during the day and the bars and nightclubs at night for full immersion in Rio’s scintillating and sultry entertainments. If they miss seeing the central district, known as the centro, also called the cidade, where the city was founded in 1567, they miss a vital part of Rio’s history during the colonial and imperial days.

Enjoy this Rio de Janeiro Aerial Tour and some suggestions for Things to Do and See in Rio de Janeiro
