Description
You will also pass by Santa Teresa and its unique charming architecture and visit the famous Selaron Steps. A van will do the pick-up and the drop-off at most hotels in Leblon, Ipanema and Copacabana.
On the tour we will make most of your time by showing you 3 of Rio biggest attractions, leaving you with more free time to get to know many other wonders in Rio. This is an excellent option to see the best of Rio if you want limited time in the city.
After hotel pick ups, the van takes you up Corcovado Mountain through the dense Tijuca rain forest to the 38m tall (125ft) Christ Redeemer Statue. The guide has between 40 and 50 minutes to display the wonderful sights of Rio. From the top, enjoy the spectacular views of Rio and the surrounding countryside.
After riding the van back down, you will pass through the charming Santa Teresa before arriving at Sugar Loaf.
As you make your way to Sugar Loaf, you will get acquainted with Santa Teresa, a neighborhood with a complete different vibe from the rest of Rio. Here, Old Rio comes alive. Santa Teresa is a neighborhood wherever laid-backness and tradition meet. But it also brings you street art, such as the amazing Selaron Steps. The beautiful steps done in ceramic by artist Jorge Selarón are one of a kind. You will have about 10 minutes or so to contemplate it before continuing on to Sugar Loaf Mountain.
You willl travel all the way to the top of Sugar Loaf in two steps by cable car. The first cable car takes you to Urca Hill, a vantage point 215 meters high for which already grants beautiful views of Guanabara Bay and its islands, the Rio-Niterói Bridge and Corcovado Mountain. From this stage, a second cable car takes you up to the top. At 395 meters we'll enjoy splendid views of Copacabana beach, the Santa Cruz fortress and several beaches of Niterói. Enjoy this magnificent scenery for about 45 minutes until you have to get back down to catch the van which will bring you back to your hotel. If visiting in the afternoon, prepare yourself for the spectacular sunset from the top of Sugar Loaf.
Please be mindful when selecting as we offer options with and without tickets.
If you choose the option without tickets, we suggest you bring the amount in cash so it can be paid directly to the guide so you can be included on our voucher, otherwise you may have to enter the line for the purchase of tickets.

Vale cada centavo
Exatamente o que procurávamos. Incluir transporte entre as atrações tira um problema das suas costas.

Muy recomendable
Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. La coordinación fue puntual y todo estuvo organizado. Muy bueno para una primera vez en la ciudad. Corcovado quedó en todas nuestras fotos. Nos acompañó un guía muy cálido, que se tomó el tiempo de charlar con cada uno. Ojalá todos los tours fueran así.

The kind of thing you still remember years later. We took loads of photos, the route hits all the right spots. If we come back to Rio de Janeiro, we will do it again.

Valeu cada centavo. Voltamos a Rio de Janeiro no dia seguinte por conta própria. O guia avisava onde valia parar para fotos. Recomendo para qualquer idade.

Recomendo muito
Não poderia ter sido melhor. O motorista foi contando o que era cada coisa até Rio de Janeiro. Mandaram todas as informações por email no dia anterior, bem claro. Já recomendei para dois amigos que viajam no mês que vem.

We booked this on a whim and it ended up being our favourite day. The guide told us stories you will not find in any guidebook. We went back to Rio de Janeiro on our own the next day. Highly recommended.
