Rio de Janeiro Reports

...I think I still have one of them.

It likely would be blocked because you have not used it for a few months. I was riding it and I was thinking it was so comfortable that I don't want to get out. Haha.

That would be for elderly Brazilian citizens.

Incorrect. I am not a Brazilian, but over 65, and don't pay. Just show my ID (copy of passport page with picture).

[Turgid]

If you are over 65, bus, VLT, and metro are free for you to use in Brazil. Just show ID with date of birth on entering the bus, VLT, or metro station.

I am going to be in Rio next month. Is uber possible from Galeao? I seem to remember that they try to not allow uber at Tom Jobim Airport but maybe things have changed? I might just take the bus. Can anyone comment if taking aerotaxi from zona sul to Galeao is still the great deal it was in years past?

It looks like the VLT uses the "RioCard Mais". Great. I think I still have one of them.

It appears to be pretty straight forward.

Ten years ago I visited the Centro termas plus Monte Carlo in Copacabana, .......

Some great reporting you did here. Salute.

Again, you land in SDU, you go to sexyhot and have a dupla with duda and stephany, and then take the metro to copa.

Otherwise, you might lose 4 to 21 reais in local currency.

Or as shakespear said, to be rich stay away from your drink and your hoar, unless you are in Brazil, then hoars are cheap like value meals.

Vagabundo just fucked a negra bare, but cpf (cost per fuck) is like 300 pernoite plus 300 meals plus 50 uber for 2 fucks.

Just go to vagabundo's private tour of prives with girls who bareback, anytime you lads want, just send me a PM, and I will be glad to go with you for the price of my first hoar, or even for free if you are a NATO member or Swiss citizen, as I am both a swiss banker, and a retired lieutenant commander, SWISS NAVY.

I do not know what your definition of an arm and a leg is, but Uber only charges from 20 to 30 reias for the ride between Santos Dumont and Copacabana. Surely you can afford $4-$6. But maybe the $1 or $2 is worth more than the hour you spend not doing it the easy way.

Yes. If I set up Uber in Brazil for my one holiday I take there every year, then transport from Santos Dumont would not depend on the taxi thieves based there.

Awesome reports you laid pipe like an oil line. I had a buddy who did 11 days recently. He is in the DR as an expat. He did not have your knowledge. He was not impressed by the quality of the ladies. He implied that average quality in the DR and Columbia was better. Like Ibn I had always heard that Rio was the Mecca for sex tourism. Once again Ibn you knocked reporting out of the park.

Thanks for contributing to the forum. Looks like you made up for your 10 YR absence. Good Read, everyone should benefit from reading these reports!!

... but Uber only charges from 20 to 30 reias for the ride between Santos Dumont and Copacabana...

It depends. I think you know that. I paid Uber $27 from SDU for about 3 km.

[Mr Enternational]

I am thinking about taking the train to the Carioca metro, and then down to Copacabana. The metro in Copa is kind of far from the beach, but taxis at Santos Dumont charge an arm snd a leg to go to Copa.

...The hassle is getting whatever card works on the VLT and then getting a metro card....t.

It appears to be pretty straight forward.

... A Russian and an Ukrainian tourist were attacked by a woman with a kitchen knife. She looks like a crackuda....

There seem to be are many mentally unstable people around the area. I was startled by someone like her who pretended try to hit me in the same neighborhood.

[Vagabundo1]

Here's a map of Centro.

I think the lessons learned are:

1. Know where Hospital Aguiar is -- to keep it simple, it is near Central train station (100 m south).

2. Have a buddy who can do first aid and get you there.

3. What are the other details? That is lapa district near our favorite centro prives.

4. Train boxing. I won't go into details but I was assaulted by a dude with the exact same kind of knife last week, but I: A) immediately took out my pocket knife which he saw, took out my taser flashlight b) started backing up in a good boxing stance, and ran away. This was in the side streets off of Metro Uruguiana.

I do believe that the media coverage of events like hamas x Israel are heightening the copy cat violence.

Foreign tourist stabbed in the chest yesterday, close to Catedral Metropolitana. A Russian and an Ukrainian tourist were attacked by a woman with a kitchen knife. She looks like a crackuda.
