Le Budget d'un voyageur a Rio

Travelling yes, but at what cost ?

It’s necessary to know that the budget differ according to countries, seasons, cities and events.

Today, we propose a study about the average budget of a traveler in Rio for a short duration (1 at 2 weeks).

Leaving…

The most expensive cost is the plane ticket. Expect between 500 to 800 € per person in average. However, it exists a way to consult the prices of the plane tickets in order to know when to go. Take a look at the website skyscanner.

This comparative website will show you in real time the prices of a London – Rio, month by month.

Tips of Allez Samba Rio : to escape the rainy season, avoid the stays during the Brazilian autumn, between march and may.

Housing…

The hotel offer is rather poor in the city of Rio. We count numerous hostels, with very attractive prices (8€ per night for the lowest price). But careful with the quality of the establishments. The most judicious and especially the most pleasant for those who do not travel alone, is the rent of apartment.

There are numerous websites like booking, hôtels.com, trivago or home away. They will propose you rents of private individuals. Numerous cariocas rent their apartments, or their rooms. We observe a peak during the big events such as the world cup or the Olympic games: not only at the level of the offer but also of the demand. Obviously it engenders a considerable increase of the rents prices: consider three to four times more expensive than usual.

Be aware of the scams! It happens that the chosen apartment do not correspond to the pictures that are on the website.

Indeed it exists a great deal of restaurants, of small or big size, from the fast foods to the Brazilian specialities to the world food…

Tips : test the kitchen « comida a kilo » in the self-service restaurants which allow you to establish your own plate and paying to the weight.

As regards the supermarkets, the prices vary slightly according to surfaces but globally the food is quite expensive in Rio. Fruits and vegetables particularly.

Entertaining…

What about the leisure activities in all this ? Well, this budget changes from one traveler to another. The travelers of the « extreme », eager for adventure and for strong sensation will spend less money than the travelers who are looking for culture for example.

For the visits in places typically touristics as Corcovado, the Sugar loaf, or the fort of Copacabana, expect between 9 and 16 euros per person.

Some of the activities are cheaper than other ones. For example, on May 1st, 2016 the visit of the Botanical garden was at a single price of 10 real, what corresponds to a little less than 3€ per person.

The activities as the visit of the atypical districts of Rio, the beaches, markets, will not cost you a penny and will delight you just as much.
