Description
Embark on a train journey to Christ the Redeemer atop Corcovado, and enjoy breathtaking views from its vantage point.

This is an extensive tour highlighting the beauty of Rio de Janeiro!
Train Journey to Christ the Redeemer and City Tour
At the designated time, our team will pick you up from your accommodation to embark on a thorough exploration of the key landmarks of Rio de Janeiro. The adventure begins as you board a train heading to the Christ the Redeemer, the monumental figure of Jesus Christ that majestically overlooks the 'carioca' city.
During the ride, enjoy a scenic 20-minute trip through the lush tropical forest until reaching the summit of Corcovado. This historic train, inaugurated in 1884, has welcomed royalty and popes alike. The electric trains reflect the city's commitment to preserving the Tijuca Forest, recognized as the largest urban forest globally.
Designated as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007, the Christ the Redeemer statue is renowned for offering some of the most remarkable views in Rio.
Subsequently, we will descend back to sea level to visit the city's main attractions. Have you ever imagined being at the Maracanã Stadium or the Sambadrome? We will pass by the exteriors of both venues while sharing their intriguing histories.
The journey continues to the Metropolitan Cathedral, an architectural marvel influenced by the design of Mayan temples from Central America. Our final destination will be the Selaron Steps, an eye-catching mosaic masterpiece.
The guided tour concludes as we return to the original meeting point.
