Just another note from a satisfied visitor. I have done a bit of Brazil-bashing at times, but from my perspective, everything went without a hitch during my visit to Rio last week. Yes, I visited during the second week so they had a chance to fix some of the initial problems, but I was quite happy to have no problems with the transit. In particular, after late-night departures from the Estadio Olimpico and the Olympic Park over in Barra, I had no problem getting on a BRT or train quickly and getting on my way. All in all, I had no problems at all, and had a great time. Nice job to the people in Rio!
