Most travelers reach Buzios by flying into Rio de Janeiro (GIG or SDU) and continuing by road, or by using Cabo Frio (CFB) when flights line up.

From Rio airports (GIG/SDU): expect roughly a 170 km to 185 km road transfer. Shared shuttles, private transfers, rental cars, and intercity buses are all common.
From Cabo Frio airport (CFB): Buzios is much closer, usually under 40 km by road.

For peak dates (New Year, Carnival, long weekends, and big festivals), pre-book your transfer. Traffic into the peninsula can be the biggest variable in your travel day.

Buzios is walkable in the center, but beach hopping is easier with wheels.
