• Paquetá Island

This tour starts at one of the three Copacabana subway stations.

We will take the subway in Copacabana to downtown where the ferry to Paquetá Island departs.
Paquetá Island is located in Guanabara Bay. To get there we will take one of the ferries (built
in the 60's) through the bay. In one hour we will be getting to this wonderful small piece of Brazilian history. The island is free from all motorized transportation (except for city cleaning and
maintenance) and all movement is done on foot, bike or horse-drawn carriage and is approximately 682sq. The name of the island is a Tupi word meaning "many shells", a reference to the plentiful
shells on the island's beaches. If you believe in love, don't miss this one. Just along the main
street there's an Imbondeiro Macho tree (also called Obaoba), 1,628 years old, and the story
goes that if you kiss its
trunk and make a wish it will come true. Perhaps if you and your loved one share the same wish, it
will come true.
