Descripción del Tour:
We commence our adventure by traversing the Presidente Costa e Silva Bridge, commonly referred to as the Guanabara Bay Bridge. This drive offers breathtaking views of the bay and Rio’s skyline. Along the way, you'll discover Niterói’s rich history, from its founding to its role as a former state capital.
Our initial stop is the Caminho Niemeyer, a collection of architectural masterpieces crafted by Oscar Niemeyer. Spanning over 11 kilometers along Niterói’s coastline, this urban complex highlights Niemeyer’s iconic curves and expansive spaces.
We explore landmarks such as the Teatro Popular Oscar Niemeyer, a remarkable theater embodying the architect’s vision of harmonizing art with the natural surroundings.

Visit to Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (MAC)
