Visiting Urca was a very interesting experience, getting to know this picturesque neighbourhood and spending the afternoon with my friends from school was wonderful! The red beach, the views and having a beer on the wall practising Portuguese was the best part of the event!

Visiting Urca with RioLIVE! and your classmates is a unique way to practice Portuguese while discovering one of Rio’s most picturesque spots. After enjoying the stunning views of Praia Vermelha, you can stroll along the charming streets and dive into conversations with locals. The highlight of the day is stopping at the iconic Mureta da Urca, where you can enjoy drinks with your friends while soaking in the breathtaking scenery of the bay and Sugarloaf Mountain. With RioLIVE! facilitating the experience, it’s the perfect opportunity to practice Portuguese in a relaxed, real-world setting and make unforgettable memories with your classmates.
