Oh wow I am going to Rio in 25 days too! HIGH FIVE! Ok some cheap shit to do is definitly, go to the beach. That's the cheapest you can get. See the great wimminz and the great ocean for free. Also, check out those vendors that come around, they got some nice stuff sometimes, and cheap food/drinks too if you want to try Brazilian specialties. Also there are tons of great restaurants where all the tourists are, around Ipanema. They aren't expensive afaik and delicious. They offer great dishes for great prices. You can get a four-course meal for around 25+ real which is REALLY cheap.

Also there are great drinks there. Try guarana! I didnt try a lot of alcholic beverages, but I heard they are great too. They also have a drink called SKOL, what'S up with that? Anymore questions?

You can call a number for cabs or just pick up a cab at the 'stations'. They have stations where there are multiple cab-drivers waiting for you. Take the official ones, unofficial ones are probably criminals driving you to an undisclosed location to rob you.

Make sure and carry your digital camera around. Ipod and the like to. Why? Chick magnet. Also, make sure and talk really loud 'cus the ladies get moist for the gringos.

Carrying ipods and cameras doesn't make you a chick magnet, they make you a thief magnet. Avoid irregular cabs. Don't go out alone, don't go to the beach alone, don't act like a clueless tourist... and you'll have a great time

Stay the fuck away from all the "cheap seaside restaurants" that another Anon suggested, unless you want to be flooded by cheap brazilian hookers sitting on your table and spoiling your meal. Yes, even the family-oriented restaurants where families with children were having dinner would get flooded with cheap hookers looking for wealthy gringo tourists. And they found them.

If you don't mind getting harrassed by hookers while you eat, go ahead. But I was on vacations with my girlfriend and it was a pretty annoying experience.

All can be summed up in a couple of basic rules:
Cheap restaurant = Hookers
Five blocks away from the touristy area = Dangerous
Paying with credit card = Official exchange rate
Paying in cash = "Tourist" rate (scam)
Dress like a local, with shorts and a t-shirt.
Don't try to attract too much attention.
Don't speak to the street vendors, they'll follow you around all day as soon as they realize you are a wealthy foreigner.

Uhm, where I was at and I wrote where I was, there were no hookers. I wonder how cheap your restaurant was if it was so cheap the brazilian hookers went there.
