Overview

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-NiterĂ³i 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 FundaĂ§Ă£o 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 ContemporĂ¢nea, 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.

Private Tour of NiterĂ³i Architecture Highlights - A Must When in Rio

Published on Feb, 2025

If you appreciate architecture and art, this is an interesting and educational tour. Our guide, Monica, was phenomenal! On the drive to NiterĂ³i she gave us a history of Rio which was informative and entertaining. Once in NiterĂ³i, we toured several Oscar Niemeyer constructions with the highlights being the buildings of Caminho Niemeyer and the Museo de Arte Contemporanea. The museum (currently, Feb ‘25) has an exhibition on Rio Carnival which was excellent and Monica was even able to answer the many questions we had about the event. To wrap up, Monica gave us a choice in what to see last and after lots of modern architecture we decided to go more traditional and visit Jambiero Manor, the home of a wealthy family from the late 1800’s, completely covered in tiles. This was a great private tour (4 hours in total which felt just right) to balance out our beach time in Rio. Book it!

Excellent tour, strongly recommended
