My trip to Rio de Janeiro 2021 November, departing from São Paulo. This time I stayed in Copacabana and Centro (Downtown).
Rio de Janeiro 2021 November – Goals
I decided to postpone this trip to November, as Covid Delta variant was wide spreading at that time.
My goals for this trip were:
- take a little rest;
- no tourism, as I already know the tourist places;
- visit again some nice places I’ve been before;
- stay in Downtown part-time.
Landing in Santos Dumont Airport
Copacabana
This is my favorite neighborhood in Rio.
Beaches, restaurants, bars, supermarkets, drugstores, gym, public transport, cabs… everything you could need to make a good trip is close, by walking.
Bars that I love here are Pavão Azul and Boteco Cevada.
Centro
Different from other times, this one I stayed part-time in the Downtown to solve some problems.
I am so lazy to cross this so large Avenida Presidente Vargas…
Conclusion
It was a short time, and usually, I came to Rio from São Paulo, using the flight connection between both cities (“ponte aérea”): Congonhas-Santos Dumont.
The next destination is Panama.
