Botequins are small traditional bars (often family ventures) specialising in selling drinks and starters. They are places of confraternization, with a laid-back environment and an informality that is also present in their menus. Botequins are also a significant part of the Carioca culture—Cariocas love going to these bars to enjoy ice-cold bottled beer or chopp (a draft beer pint) and starters with friends.

Walking off the beaten track, you will visit three to four botequins, explore the specialities of each bar according to your taste, and eat and drink as you go.

Among other things, you will taste cachaça, caipirinha and local beers as well as traditional Brazilian street foods such as coxinha, pastel and feijoada and cod bolinhos.
