Walk the city walls at opening time (8 AM) to beat the cruise ship crowds. The Old Town is pedestrian-only — wear comfortable shoes on the marble Stradun which gets slippery when wet.
Cariocas (Rio residents) are warm and physical — hugs and cheek-kisses are normal greetings.
🇭🇷 Dubrovnik Fun Fact
Dubrovnik was the first state in the world to officially abolish the slave trade — in 1416, over 400 years before the British Empire. The city-republic of Ragusa prided itself on freedom ('Libertas') above all.
🇧🇷 Rio de Janeiro Fun Fact
Rio's Christ the Redeemer statue is struck by lightning an average of 6 times per year.
