The Olympic transport card of ' Rio 2016'

A special version of the Rio de Janeiro public transport pass, known as the Rio 2016 Games RioCard, is now available from sales points including the city’s two airports, main bus terminal, metro stations and BRT (bus rapid transit) stops. The passes can also be bought from Pier Mauá and seven RioCard stores in Rio de Janeiro and the wider metropolitan region. RioCards are dispensed from dedicated machines that accept debit cards as well as cash.

The RioCard grants unlimited access to the city-wide public transport network during the Games period, including municipal bus, metro, BRT and SuperVia (train) services, with the exception of the city’s executive buses (known as frescões). Cards are available for one day (R$25 – US$7.67), three days (R$70 – US$21.47) or seven days (R$160 – US$49), and may be used from the moment of activation until 23:59 of the last calendar day for which they are valid, with a further two hours’ grace period allowed for late finishing times.
