Highlights
- AquaRio - During the tour, we can take pictures (no flash, please) in areas such as the Recinto Oceânico e de Mergulho (Oceanic and Diving Enclosure), the largest tank in the Aquarium holding up to 3.3 million liters of water and seven meters in depth. At the same time, we learn a little bit more about aquamarine life and the impact of our actions in their ecosystem. Close to the end of the tour, we pass underneath a tunnel and see the underwater above us, which gives a unique feeling.
- Boulevard Olimpico - Created for the 2016 Olympic Games, the Olympic Boulevard has attracted the attention of grafitti artists around the globe. Stroll around to see the biggest grafitti in the world: the Mural das Etnias by Kobra.

Excellent plan for the family - Excellent tour to get to know Rio de Janeiro. The aquarium is excellent. Very good care. We then took a walking tour of some historical sites. Lots of information, clear and precise.

Rio Aquarium - Spectacular, fun, comfortable and very good facilities, the only sad thing is that the "Chicago" wheel is under maintenance.
It's a safe place, right there

No other place like it, that I know of - The aquarium in Rio de Janeiro is four-five times better than Monterey aquarium in San Francisco. There are sharks, sting rays, you walk through a tunnel with sharks above your head, if that's not enough of a high you need to swim with the sharks. Our tour guide was bilingual, so me and my girlfriend knew everything, no one was left out. Like any zoo, or aquarium the prices on food and beverages were high, but you can justify it knowing they have to keep maintenance, and a habitat suitable for the aquatic life.
