About this activity

Imagine soaring 1,000 feet above the "Marvelous City" with absolutely nothing between you and the breathtaking panoramic views. A doors-off helicopter tour in Rio de Janeiro is not just a sightseeing trip—it is an adrenaline-fueled, once-in-a-lifetime adventure that turns the city's postcard-perfect landscapes into a sensory, high-intensity experience.

As the turbine helicopter lifts off from the coast, you will immediately feel the wind in your face and the exhilarating, unfiltered freedom of flying. Without doors, you are fully immersed in the scenery, providing a thrilling sense of exposure as you soar over Rio's famous coastline.

This is the ultimate experience for photography lovers and thrill-seekers. With no glass or doors to obstruct your view, you can capture stunning, photos of the iconic beaches and the vibrant cityscape. The highlight of the journey is hovering close to the Christ the Redeemer statue — a perspective you can only truly appreciate from the air.
