Hola! I am Pupi (or Gonzalo). I am a musician and comedian from Argentina, I was working in a very serious company in Buenos Aires as a multimedia designer and teacher, until one day I decided to leave everything and go to live in Rio de Janeiro, I believe that (in my case) 32 years is enough to stop procrastinating dreams and living in this city is one of them. I visited Rio for the first time in 2014 and I fell in love with its streets, its people and everything about its beaches. Today I continue working as a freelancer because I love being able to have my free rats to go to this beautiful city.
Almost hidden under the Sugar Loaf is the most beautiful, quiet neighborhood with the best view of the city: Urca.
Sadly, many tourists only go up the bondinho to the hills and leave the neighborhood without going through its streets or seeing the incredible sunset over the Urca wall, in the Guanabara Bay.
I would like us to go through it together, tell you a little about its history and take beautiful photos for your social networks.
My name is Pupi Castro, I am an Argentine designer, musician and comedian who during the pandemic made the decision to start fulfilling a dream: to live in Rio de Janeiro.
I thought of these tours as a relaxed and fun experience, I really enjoy sharing what I love about this city and based on my reviews, my walkers do too.
First, we will meet at Pasteur Avenue , where we will walk to Vermelha Beach, a beach that has a privileged view of the great Sugar Loaf, from there we will walk part of the Cláudio Coutinho promenade bordering the coast and at the foot of the hill.
Later, we will return to General Tibúrcio square and start walking to Urca where we will pass by the abandoned Cassino hotel and then by the Igreja Nossa Senhora do Brasil .
At the end of the tour, the best part: the Mureta da Urca where we will take a beautiful panoramic image of the heart of the River, in front of Christ the Redeemer of Corcovado that embraces the entire city.
We are going to have a great time and I promise you an image with many likes on your social networks!
We will meet at the corner of Praça General Tibúrcio, just below the sign with the digital clock (see map)
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
