Description

Explore Rio de Janeiro on this extensive tour of the vibrant city renowned for its carioca spirit. Experience iconic landmarks such as the Christ the Redeemer Statue, Sugarloaf Mountain, and the Maracanã Stadium during this immersive journey!

Tour Overview

Your adventure begins with a pickup from your accommodation in Rio de Janeiro, setting off on a detailed exploration of one of the world’s most celebrated cities.

Traveling in a comfortable minibus, our first destination will be Corcovado’s summit, home to the renowned Christ the Redeemer statue, a marvel listed among the new seven wonders of the world. The breathtaking viewpoints will allow you to admire the sprawling cityscape below. Next, we'll make our way to the base of Sugarloaf Mountain, where a cable car ride will take us up to stunning vistas from the peak.

Our journey continues at the Maracanã Stadium, one of the most significant football venues globally, previously the largest stadium, which hosted the World Cup in both 1950 and 2014. From its exterior, we will reminisce about legendary matches in football history.

A visit to the Sambadrome is essential, as this notable 1,870 ft long venue is the heart of the famous Rio Carnival parade held annually.

We will also explore the Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Sebastian, a distinctive symbol of Rio characterized by its pyramid-like structure reminiscent of ancient pre-Columbian architecture. Subsequently, we will venture into the heart of the city to experience local culture with a visit to the Selarón Steps and the Lapa Arches.

Throughout this experience, a sumptuous buffet lunch will be provided. Upon concluding the tour, we will return you to your hotel, with the entire experience lasting approximately 9 to 10 hours.
