You’ve probably heard some negative things about the Marvelous City — and maybe even faced some concerns from family, friends, or others before deciding to visit Rio.
Our mission at Free Walker is to break these stereotypes and show you how rich Rio de Janeiro truly is in history, culture, and diversity.

It’s home to one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World and was Brazil’s capital for nearly 200 years. It’s also the birthplace of Brazil’s two most iconic music genres — samba and bossa nova — and the location of the largest African port in the Americas, where much of Brazil’s cultural identity was shaped.
