Tour Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Rio de Janeiro and set off on a scenic drive along the beaches of the city's Zona Sul.

With the profile of Corcovado Mountain coming into view, we'll arrive at the Paineiras Visitor Center, inside Tijuca National Park, the largest urban forest in the world. Here, Christ the Redeemer awaits. With its outstretched arms spanning 28 meters (92 feet), this modern wonder will treat you to an unparalleled panoramic view of Rio. Keep your camera ready at all times!

Next, we'll head to Praia Vermelha, at the foot of the legendary Sugarloaf Mountain. From its base, we'll board the cable car to the summit, where the views of the sea, the islands, and Guanabara Bay will surround you in a landscape that looks almost painted. From up top, the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana, and the city nestled between its surrounding mountains, will provide the perfect backdrop for a moment of pure contemplation.

Finally, we'll make our way back down and begin the return journey to your hotel, where we'll say our goodbyes after approximately 5 hours together.
