Description
In the morning, while we move along the beaches of the South Zone of Rio to collect guests, you will catch up nice views from Rio’s charming beaches. As you stroll through Leblon, Ipanema and Copacabana you’ll hear all about these beaches. After that, head to Botafogo neighborhood where Sugar Loaf stands. But before your visit, we will head to the Downtown to learn a bit more about Rio’s History, passing by the Guanabara Palace, the famous Rio Sambodrome, and the Metropolitan Cathedral, where we have a stop.
After a brief visit, we will make our way to Urca and Sugar Loaf. There you will catch some of the best views in Rio. Some locals might argue that it is the best view of Rio.
You will travel all the way to the top 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, Flamengo and Botafogo beaches, Santos Dummont Airport, the Rio-Niterói Bridge, Urca’s neighborhood and Corcovado Mountain.
From up there, you will have no trouble understanding why Rio is nicknamed 'Wonderful City'. After some time allowed up there, you will head down to an all-you-can-eat-style barbecue house (if option selected). Brazilian Churrascarias (Barbecue places) offer a wide variety of sides and alternative options, in AFFAIR you decide to stick with a vegetarian option, you will still leave delighted. If you choose the option without lunch, our guide will offer a variety of nearby suggestions that can fit any budget or taste!
After lunch, you will take a van ride to Santa Teresa, a neighborhood where 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 .
From Selaron Steps, we will leave by van up through the Tijuca National Park. Where we will arrive at the park’s visitor center. From there we’ll make our way up to the statue where we will spend some time enjoying the views from one of the world’s most famous landmark.
After riding the van back down, guests will make their way back to their hotels. This full day tour will give you all of Rio de Janeiro: Its main attractions, its history, its lifestyle and delicious food. Your Local’s crash course.

Ideal para conocer la ciudad
Terminamos el día hablando de lo bien que había estado. El detalle del Autobús con aire acondicionado sumó mucho. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. Se puede ir tranquilo con gente mayor, todo muy cómodo. No lo dudes, reservalo.

The kind of thing you still remember years later. Corcovado Mountain ended up in all our photos. I compared prices before booking and this was the best deal. Great guide, attentive to the whole group and endlessly patient. The guided tour in spanish, portuguese and english is a smart touch.

Recomendo, sabendo o que esperar. Muito bom que incluía city tour panorâmico pelo centro Muito corretos com os horários. Faltou água disponível, principalmente com aquele calor. Boa opção, principalmente na primeira visita.

A wonderful experience
Excellent from start to finish. The roundtrip Transfer was well thought out. I have already recommended it to two friends travelling next month.

Cumpriu, mas esperava um pouco mais pelo preço. Tudo bem sinalizado e a equipe atenta. Fomos com crianças e elas aguentaram o roteiro tranquilamente. A explicação em Serra Nevada de Rio de Janeiro nos deixou pensando. A única ressalva: o grupo era maior do que imaginávamos. Boa experiência no balanço geral.
