My first experience with the Rio bus was quite lovely. You pay a fare to the turnstile operator (separate from the bus operator) and you have to squeeze through a little turnstile. You don\u2019t need exact change as the turnstile operator can give you change. In this case, my fare was R$2.95 which was much cheaper than a taxi.<\/p>\n<p><a
