The Best of NileGuide

If you're planning to drive in Rio de Janeiro, prepare for a wild ride. Negotiating the traffic can be a hair-raising experience, and those of a nervous disposition would be well advised to let an experienced local take the wheel on Rio de Janeiro drives.
Whether you drive yourself or employ a guide and driver (not a cheap option)a car can take you off the beaten track and into some exciting territory.
Rio de Janeiro drives can take you deep into the thick jungle of the Parque Nacional da Tijuca, out west to beach destinations such as Recreio, down the coast to spots like Angra dos Reis and Buzios, or up to mountain destinations like Petropolis.Driving in Rio will also allow you to visit hard-to-reach destinations like the beautiful Igreja da Penha church. Hold tight!
