Ipanema Hippie Fair (Feira Hippie de Ipanema) Tours and Tickets

Explore the Feira Hippie de Ipanema, a longstanding fair and farmers market in Ipanema, during this tour in Rio. Stroll through the more than 700 stalls containing locally made jewelry, contemporary art and Brazilian folk crafts. Stop by one of the food stalls to try an acaraj e; a croquette, fried in palm oil and filled with spicy shrimp. Practice your bargaining skills with the vendors and engage in friendly conversation with the locals who have flocked to this fair every Sunday since its inception in 1968. Round-trip transportation from central Rio hotels is included.

Stray from the beaten path and visit some of Rio de Janeiro's alternative tourists attractions on a 4-hour tour of the Sao Bento Monastery and the Santa Teresa neighborhood. Ideal for travellers who have ticked off Rio's main sites already, the tour's itinerary includes the Sao Bento Monastery, a gorgeous example of 16th-century Roman Catholic architecture, and the bohemian district of Santa Teresa, replete with haphazard houses and decorated stairways. Visit, too, the Feira Hippie de Ipanema, a market brimming with fabrics, handbags, souvenirs, and Brazilian street food.
