Inhotim Institute Experience

At the arranged time, we will collect you from your accommodation in Belo Horizonte and head toward Brumadinho, located 60 kilometers away. Here lies the Inhotim Institute, recognized as one of the premier museums for contemporary art in Brazil.

The Inhotim Institute is celebrated as a significant cultural hub within Minas Gerais. Once we arrive at this expansive venue, which ranks among the largest open-air museums globally, a guided tour will allow us to explore this unique blend of culture and nature.

During our exploration of the Inhotim Institute, you'll encounter the masterpieces of over 60 artists from 40 different nations. Notable pieces in the permanent exhibition include works by Hélio Oiticica, Yayoi Kusama, and Cildo Meireles.

Your journey through this open-air museum will also include a visit to the renowned Botanical Garden, which features some of the rarest plant species worldwide. Can you imagine which ones are showcased? For now, know that the garden hosts more than 4,000 distinct plants.

Following our tour at the Inhotim Institute, you will have an hour to enjoy lunch at the museum restaurant. This is a perfect moment to revisit any artworks that particularly captured your interest.
