About this activity

This will be a private tour for yourself and your group to enjoy a special day visiting some of the most beautiful sites in Rio. If you have already visited any of the 'must-see' sites (Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf, and Selaron Steps), we can easily tailor the tour to accommodate your needs and preferences.

We suggest leaving by 8 am to avoid the queues, but the start time is entirely up to you! we can pick you up from your hotel in Rio, or meet at our meeting point in Copacabana.

The tour can be done in Portuguese, English, or Spanish, and we will share lots of information about our history, Carioca culture, and lifestyle, so you’ll leave knowing more about this wonderful city and the people that make it so special. I'll also share several tips about Rio, so you don’t miss out on all the great things to experience and visit during your stay here.

Itinerary

Santuario Cristo Redentor

3 hours Admission not included

First, we will visit one of the seven wonders of the world, Christ the Redeemer - and arguably the best view in Rio. We will reach the top of Corcovado by train and spend approximately 40 minutes there (note: train tickets and entry are not included, but with me, you can skip the line!) The time estimate includes travel time.
Sugarloaf Mountain

3 hours Admission not included

Next, we will head down to the Sugar Loaf, the second most visited site in Rio. We will hop on the oldest working cable car in the world and enjoy the beautiful view from above. The time estimate includes travel time.
Escadaria Selaron

2 hours

The last stop of our tour will be the third most visited site in Rio, the Selaron steps, featuring the 2,000 ceramic tiles collected by the incredible Jorge Selaron during the course of his life. The time estimate includes travel time.
The Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Sebastian

Passing by

We will drive by the cathedral, so you will get a nice view of the building. Depending on traffic, we can decide to stop for a few minutes for photos and a bit of history!
