How to Get From Galeao to Buzios

Galeao Airport and Buzios are about 170 km apart. There is no single way to do it; here is what changes with each one.

Private transfer

The driver waits in arrivals and takes you to your accommodation without stops. It has the fewest steps and is the only option that is settled before you land. See Galeao to Buzios transfer.

Bus

The 1001 bus company runs buses to Buzios from the Novo Rio bus station and, according to ticket-booking sites, a few departures from Galeao Airport too, with only a few times a day. It costs less per person, but the trip is longer (about 4 hours from the airport), the times are fixed and it drops you at the terminal, not at your accommodation. Compare it in bus or private transfer from Rio to Buzios.

Taxi or ride-hailing app
