Getting Around

This is the metro station at Barra. It will connect Barra to the the rest of the city, but it will only take you to the begging of Barra. From there you'll need to either take the BRT or a Uber/cab. Please refer to the website for further info, available in English. https://www.metrorio.com.br *Although the metro can take to some of the main areas in Rio, there aren't many stations. So, you'll probably need to take also some other type of transportation.
