Artisan fair

Israel M, Jan 2024

The place has quite a variety of products, but the prices are a little high, the fair that takes place in the afternoons in Copacsbana sells some of the same products and at a lower price. Furthermore, at the time of the visit the center of the square was closed, apparently for repairs, and there was a bad smell. The other thing is that I didn't have a place to rest.

In my opinion this tour is definitely...

Thank you very much for your comment! We are sorry that you have not reached your expectations.

Itinerary

  • Feira Hippie de Ipanema

    The Hippie Fair is held every Sunday at Praça General Osório, a square that takes up an entire city block. The fair has evolved from a small gathering of hippie friends selling their crafts to an open market with artisans highlighting their works. Forget about the hassles of sticking to a budget when shopping at the fair. Chances are you will end up buying much more than you expected and still have a good deal of money left over for a few Caipirinhas.

    3 hours
  • Ipanema Beach
