IMPORTANT
To facilitate transportation during the Climate Adaptation Diplomacy event, a link and QR code are provided for the use of the Uber mobility service:
https://r.uber.com/rX2PsG3rqss
Please remember that all trips must be exclusively related to the event activities. Use for personal travel is not permitted. We appreciate your understanding and collaboration.
Río de Janeiro has two main airports: Galeão International Airport (GIG) and Santos Dumont Airport (SDU). Galeão receives the majority of international flights and is located approximately 20 km from the city center, while Santos Dumont, closer to the center, is ideal for national flights.
For public transport, Río offers options such as buses, metro and VLT (Light Vehicle on Rieles). The metro is one of the safest and most efficient ways to move, especially in tourist areas, with stations close to key points in the city such as Lapa and Copacabana. The VLT is a modern and practical option for those traveling between Santos Dumont and the center. We also recommend the use of transport applications such as Uber and 99, which are widely used, which provide greater convenience and safety.
We suggest that participants plan their trips in advance, especially during peak hours, and avoid walking through unfamiliar or poorly lit areas, especially at night.
Climate and suggested clothing
In October, the temperature in Rio de Janeiro is usually warm, varying between 23° and 28°C. It is recommended to bring:
• Light clothing for warm weather
• A coat or sweater for cooler or rainy days
• Swimsuit, in case you want to use the hotel pool or spa
Safety in Lapa
Lapa, known for its vibrant nightlife and the iconic Lapa Arches, is a popular area in Rio de Janeiro. However, as in any big city, it is important to keep an eye on safety. When visiting Lapa, it is recommended to be aware of your surroundings, especially at night, and avoid displaying valuables such as phones, cameras and jewelry. It is suggested to walk in groups and use reliable transportation apps, such as taxis or flatbed vehicles, especially after evening events. Keep documents and money in safe places and, if possible, take only the essentials when you go out. Also, inform yourself about the surrounding areas and avoid uncrowded or poorly lit areas, always relying on intuition and common sense for a safer experience.
