Discover Rio de Janeiro in one day

About this activity

A day discovering Rio de Janeiro! The tour lasts approximately 9 hours (including a lunch break) to discover the most attractive places that have earned it the name “Cidade Maravilhosa”. Starting from the statue of Christ the Redeemer which we will reach with the panoramic rack train, we will follow a route that will make you appreciate some of the beauties of the city, will allow you to get to know the famous Sambodromo where the largest open-air show in the world takes place, the parades of carioca carnival, and will make you feel the emotion of being in front of the legendary Maracaná stadium. To complete this wonderful day we will then climb Sugarloaf Mountain from where you can admire a breathtaking view of the city center, the beautiful Guanabara Bay, the city of Niteroi and Copacabana beach. We have selected the most symbolic points of Rio de Janeiro to guide you through a tour that we hope will remain in the hearts and minds of all of you!
