AquaRio & Olympic Boulevard Tour
Tour Details
Lovers of the marine world, this is the tour for you! At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Rio de Janeiro to begin this route to AquaRio and the Olympic Boulevard, in the city's port area.
Firstly, we'll make our way to AquaRio, the biggest aquarium in South America. Did you know that it is home to over 350 marine species? You'll love it! Once we enter, we'll go on a 1.5-hour tour to learn all about the fishes, invertebrates, mammals, and birds looked after in the aquarium.
Throughout our visit to AquaRio, one of the spots that is sure to grab your attention is the underwater tunnel, where you'll feel as if you're at the bottom of the sea surrounded by sea life. You'll see everything from small sardines to intimidating sharks!
After exploring, we'll then head over to the Olympic Boulevard, in the port area of Rio. Here, we'll stumble across some of the best examples of urban art in the city, amongst which, the mural Etnia by the artist Kobra is particularly notable. It's one of the biggest works of graffiti in the world!
Additionally, we'll also walk along the area to learn about the legacy left in the city when it hosted the Olympic Games in 2016, admiring how this area has turned into one of the best spots to view the Bay of Guanabara. To end the tour on a high note, we'll then go to the Rio Star Ferris Wheel where you can hop on and enjoy some of the best views of Rio. What a great way to end our visit!
Lastly, we'll take you back to your hotel where this tour will come to an end after a total of 5 hours.
