Transportation to Rio De Janeiro City Center from Airport
Rio de Janeiro Galeao - Antonio Carlos Jobim Intl. - Galeao Intl. Airport
Rio de Janeiro is Brazil's second largest city with a crowded population. Within the boundaries of the city are the Maracana Stadium, one of the stables of football fans, as well as the Christ the Redeemer Jesus statue, considered one of the seven wonders of the world.
The city, which became world famous thanks to Rio Carnival, offers a combination of sea, sand, sun and entertainment along the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The transport network in Rio de Janeiro, host of the Summer Olympics 2016 after the World Cup, has been renewed for the event.
The metro and the new buses are two important means of the transportation network that go to the farthest parts of the city. In a city with a very crowded population, taxis also serve all day long to lighten traffic intensity. The International Rio de Janeiro Airport is serving the passengers from all around the world to reach the city.
Located on an island in Rio de Janeiro, the airport is 20 kilometers away from the city center. You can travel this distance with buses or taxis that serve almost all day. You can easily rent a car from the companies operating at the airport.
Taxi
If you want to travel by taxi, you should pay attention to the point that the taxis you take have license and a taximeter. Linha Vermelha, Linha Amarela and Avenida Brasil highways connecting the airport and the city center make it possible to reach your destination with confidence.
Bus
Rio de Janeiro Airport is served by bus lines operating at different times in different parts of the city. The bus 2101 runs between 05:30 and 18:00, the bus 2145 runs between 05:30 and 22:30 and the bus 1001 runs between 04:00 and 23:00.
In addition to these private buses, the public bus line 924 provides access to the city center during the day, although it is not very frequent. Buses go to different districts, but each passes through the city center. The journey by bus takes about 45 minutes.
Car Rental
Five different car hire companies that serve at the airport are open 24 hours a day. You can choose among these companies and rent the vehicle with the models and specifications you want. Among these companies are Avis, Hertz, Localiza, Movida and Unidas.
