In our opinion the best burger in Rio (if not the world)! Order the classic B de Burger ao ponto da casa (rare and succulent). We usually order delivery or take-away but the place also has plenty of seating.

Qué debes empacar
Keep it minimal
Rio's fashion is easygoing and casual, don't go overboard with expensive accessories on the beach or broad-walk. During the busy times on sunny weekends and summer, when hoards of tourists flock to beautiful Arpoador, unfortunately, every now and then, the crowds also attract unwanted characters. To be aware of your surroundings is always a good tip.
