Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf, Lunch and Small Group City Tour

What you'll do

Embark on this full-day Rio de Janeiro City Tour with a guide and visit Rio de Janeiro's top landmarks and highlights. We visit to Corcovado Mountain and the Christ the Redeemer statue going through the Paineiras route. The 20-minute drive to the base of the statue takes you through the Tijuca Forest and gives you a preview of the landscapes ahead. The statue stands 710 meters tall and from this vantage point, you’ll have sweeping views of the city. We also visit the Sugar Loaf. The cable car ride to the top of the mountain is done in 2 stages: begin at the boarding station to Urca Mountain (224 meters) and then from Urca Mountain to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain (395 meters). Let’s also stop at the Metropolitan Cathedral, the Arcos da Lapa with the traditional Selarón Staircase, the Sambadrome and the Maracanã Stadium. This tour includes tour guide, tickets to the Christ the Redeemer and the Sugarloaf, Buffet lunch and round-trip transportation.

    Part of the Sugarloaf complex.

  • 5

    Located in Santa Teresa, the Selarón Steps are famous for its bright and colourfull tiles.

  • 6

    The modern archtecture is very different from the traditional cathedrals we see out there. Enjoy the beautiful stained glasses and try to guess the biblical passages they got their inspiration from.

  • 7

    The Sambodromo is the Carnival Temple and the place we compete every year in the biggest celebration of carnival in the planet.

  • 8

    Football - or soccer, if you prefer - is part of the Brazilian life. We love to watch the games and share experiences with complete strangers that get together for one purpose: support their team on the field. The Maracanã Stadium is considered our temple and a sacred place for those who enjoy a great game. We can take pictures outside of the Stadium and share stories about our favorite matches.
