Escape the tourist trail and explore Rio de Janeiro through two of its greatest pleasures: nature and food.

Start with a scenic walk through the lush and iconic Jardim Botânico, sipping artisanal Brazilian liqueurs as your guide shares stories about the local flora, flavors, and history of this green haven.

Then, step into a true carioca home- just across from the garden - where you’ll be welcomed with caipirinhas, good music and a stunning view.

In a cozy kitchen atmosphere, you’ll learn how to prepare traditional Brazilian appetizers like crispy aipim frito and chewy tapioca, followed by a hands-on cooking session featuring moqueca simmered in coconut milk, buttery farofa, and fluffy rice. To finish: rich, velvety brigadeiro.

This isn’t just a cooking class, it’s a celebration of Brazilian hospitality, flavor, and everyday ritual. Come hungry and curious. Leave full and smiling.
