My Rio Travel Guide is the most updated travel guide for Rio de Janeiro and allows you to print absolutely any page you want. The guidebook is in PDF format, hence widely accepted and printable, as most computers already have installed a PDF reader.
My Rio Travel Guide (written by myself, Madson, Rio de Janeiro Tour Guide) has 112 pages. It includes maps of the main neighborhoods where tourists hang out such as Copacabana and Ipanema beaches as well as maps of off the beaten path areas such as Urca, Santa Teresa, Leme, and Leblon. You can print any of these maps — they are well designed, colorful, and informative.
Another very popular printable section is the restaurant chapter. The restaurants and cafes listed were finely-selected — budget, mid-range, and high-end ones where Cariocas (natives of Rio de Janeiro) go for lunch and dinner on weekdays as well as on weekends and holidays. You may not want to print the whole restaurant chapter, but at least the section of the neighborhood where your hotel is located.
In addition to that, you can print the ‘suggested food and drinks’ grid. This grid presents the names of several typical local dishes, appetizers, desserts, and beverages in Brazilian Portuguese, accompanied with its description in English. This way you know what to order, even if the restaurant menu is in Portuguese only (common in many restaurants in Rio de Janeiro, and throughout Brazil). Note: Bear in mind that many waiters in Rio don’t speak not even basic English, so this printable grid will be extremely useful for you during your vacation in Brazil.
Another page worth printing is the Rio de Janeiro Bicycling Map, which gives you a clear overview of where are located the bike rental shops (in Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon) as well as what route to cover and how long does it take.
There are many more pages to print, or just to read on screen. The bottom line is, My Rio Travel Guide is THE guidebook for the serious traveler planning to visit Rio de Janeiro, whether or not you want to print the entire guidebook or only some sections. Download it now, print the pages you want, and prepare to visit the most exciting city in Latin America!
