Full Day Tour: Christ the Redeemer an Sugar Loaf
I will pick you up early in the morning at your hotel and drive to the Corcovado Train Station, where we will board the “trenzinho”a cogwheel train that departs every twenty minutes for an almost vertical ride to the top of Corcovado Mountain. On the way to the summit, you will enjoy views of the Tijuca Rainforest. It is beautiful and peaceful! Once at the top of Corcovado Mountain, we will visit the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue and admire the breathtaking views of the city. We will spend about 1 hour at the top, marveling at the monument and enjoying sweeping views of Rio and its surroundings.
Then, we will head to historic Downtown Rio for a city tour. First, we will visit Escadaria Selarón, one of the most fascinating, colorful, and unique staircases in the world, covered in tiles from all over the globe. Continuing our journey, you will see the Lapa Arches, Lavradio Street, and Avenida Chile. We will also visit the Metropolitan Cathedral, well-known for its unique pyramid shape and modern architecture. Next, we will see Cinelândia Square, home to historic cultural landmarks such as the National Museum of Fine Arts, the National Library, and the Municipal Theater.
Afterward, we will head to Urca, the neighborhood where Sugarloaf Mountain is located. The ascent is made in two stages: first to the top of Urca Hill (220 meters above sea level) starting from Praia Vermelha, and then by cable car to the summit of Sugarloaf Mountain. Here, you will enjoy a breathtaking 360 degree view of Rio de Janeiro, Guanabara Bay, the city of Niterói, the Santa Cruz Fortress, and the famous Copacabana Beach. At the end of your full-day tour, we will drive you back to your hotel.
