• Bus with AC (R$ 14), company PREMIUM (takes approximately 45 mins to 1 and 1/2 hour), get off in Ipanema at Farme de Amoedo and walk up to Rua Baro da Torre. Taxi is around R$ 45 and is easy to take from the arrival hall where there is an organized taxi service at an affordable price.
• When you arrive at Rua Baro da Torre N175 there is a gate, during daytime it is open so just to put your hand inside and turn the knob, then walk to house 18 down on the left and ring the doorbell if the door is not open. If the gate is locked just ring the inter phone to the left (it says Harmonia casa 18 on it) and we come and open. Observe that there nowadays are plenty of home stays in our little street, our house is number 18 and is at the end on the left, we have a green door. Please make sure you have arrived at us at not one of the neighbours!
