Tour of Santa Teresa and Selarón Steps by foot

Discover the charming neighborhood of Santa Teresa, with its completely different vibe from the rest of Rio. See local artists create their art and work on their craft. Then you'll explore the Parque das Ruínas (Ruins Park) where you get to see one of the most beautiful views of the lesser known Rio, its tradition, its architecture, the lifestyle, street art and the bohemian atmosphere at night.

Walk down the famous ceramic Selaron stairway steps to reach Lapa, created by the Chilean Jorge Selarón and learn more about the pieces of ceramic that were placed on top of the paintings done by the locals who were decorating the stairs in support for the National Soccer Team in 1994’s World Cup, won by Brazil.
