Niteroi and its ocean beaches

About this activity

Tourists during tours in Rio often see the long bridge that connects the city with Niteroi. Many don't know the beauties that Niteroi offers to those who visit it and I want to show them to you!

We will get to know the "Caminho Niemeyer", a route that combines art and landscape, created by the famous Brazilian architect who, among other great works, designed the capital Brasilia. Continuing along the beaches of Icaraí, Saõ Francisco and Charitas, we will then visit the Fort of Santa Croce, famous for the stupendous panorama it offers of Guanabara Bay and Rio de Janeiro.

After the lunch break we will move to Itacoatiara to admire a landscape so wonderful that it has earned this place the title of one of the 15 most beautiful beaches in Brazil. On the way back to Rio we will go up to the City Park, an unmissable panoramic point in the greenery of the Mata Atlantica, from which it is possible to admire a landscape of Rio that I am sure will be unforgettable.
