Rio!

iOS Universal

★ Most current app to Rio - the insider's guide! ★

Make the most of Rio de Janeiro with this essential guide to the sights, beaches, nightlife, restaurants, museums, and much, much more. Comprehensive and user-friendly, you'll easily discover why locals call Rio the "Cidade Maravilhosa" (marvellous city)!

*WHY THIS APP?*
Our 225 entries offer all the information you really need plus lots of hidden gems, and stunning images you won't find elsewhere. The app was created from scratch by a travel writer with years of experience in Latin America, a sightseeing expert who understands Rio inside and out.

Other apps are big on tourist sights but short on decent eats or nightlife - or they focus on Copacabana and Ipanema alone. Our guide offers a personal touch to lead you right across this incredible city.

Practical tips show you how to visit Rio efficiently, affordably, and safely. For individual advice, ask the author through in-app comments and get personalized feedback at your fingertips! This Rio app is the most responsive available.

*WHAT'S INSIDE?*
* offline maps and content - find each location without internet
* 600 photos help you decide where to go in advance
* 80 essential eats & coffee shops, 50 top nightspots, plus key accommodation and shopping ideas
* tips on navigating the airport, city transport, and staying safe
* discover Rio's fascinating arts scene, museums, and architecture
* key info on city tours, trips to favelas, soccer clubs, and the great outdoors
* links to websites and video brings alive Rio's iconic culture
* insider guidance on the friendliest spots in town - learn to samba with the locals!

Best of all, we update every few months to stay on top of all the latest goings-on and tech improvements. Info on carnival, city festivals, New Year's celebrations, and new bars and clubs appears here before the competition.
