Itinerary

1. Rei do Mate
Meet your guide at the historic Carioca Station as the city transitions into night. We kick off at a local favorite for a warm cup of gooey Pão de Queijo (12 pieces to share) paired with a traditional, refreshing ice-cold Mate with Lemonade (300ml)—the quintessential Rio street refreshment.
Duration: 20 mins
2. Armazém Senado
Step back in time at a historic, century-old local tavern. Here, you'll toast the night with an authentic shot of artisanal Cachaça and a tongue-numbing shot of Amazonian Jambu to share. To balance the drinks, you'll dig into two traditional chicken Empadinhas (savory, flaky oven pies).
Duration: 30 mins
3. Restaurante Baby Galeto
Head deeper into the lively streets of Lapa. At this neighborhood staple, we taste two of Brazil's absolute favorite savory bar bites: a portion of crispy, golden Bolinho de Bacalhau (6 codfish cakes) and traditional teardrop-shaped chicken Coxinha (6 units).
Duration: 30 mins
4. Visit the world-famous Selarón Steps as they light up for the evening. Here, we stop at a legendary street stall for a massive, freshly muddled 500ml street Caipirinha. Sip Brazil’s national cocktail while soaking in the vibrant bohemian energy and colorful tile mosaics.
Duration: 20 mins
5. Jurema da Lapa Alimentos e Bebidas LTDA
Keep the energy moving down the lively bohemian alleyways of Lapa. We stop at this popular local hotspot to snack on a fresh portion of piping-hot, crispy Fried Polenta—the ultimate savory comfort food to share among friends.
Duration: 20 mins
6. Conclude the food journey at the famous street wall of Lapa right by the iconic Arcos da Lapa aqueduct.
