    an unforgettable morning of discoveries, history and breathtaking landscapes

    Get ready for a unique experience that brings together Rio de Janeiro's two greatest landmarks in just a few hours. This tour has been carefully planned to provide comfort, practicality and, above all, memories that will be treasured forever.


    Departure and ascent to Corcovado

    Your journey begins with a pick-up at your accommodation, where you will be met by an expert bilingual guide, ready to share fascinating facts and stories about Rio. On board a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, you start the journey towards Corcovado Hill.

    Along the way, a natural spectacle is revealed: the crossing through the Tijuca Forest, the largest urban forest on the planet. A veritable green sanctuary in the middle of the metropolis, home to waterfalls, tropical birds and lush vegetation that frames the winding road to the top.

    At the top, you'll find Christ the Redeemer, one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World. With its 38 meters high and open arms, the statue is an icon of faith, peace and welcome. In front of it, the sensation is indescribable: a mixture of grandeur, spirituality and emotion.

    The 360-degree panoramic view reveals the essence of the Marvelous City: the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, Sugarloaf Mountain, Guanabara Bay, the world-famous beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema and even the imposing line of the Pedra Branca Massif, all brought together in a single, spectacular landscape.


    Sugarloaf Adventure

    After experiencing the grandeur of Christ, the tour heads to another unmistakable symbol of Rio: Sugarloaf Mountain.

    Arriving at the charming Praia Vermelha, you board the famous cable car, a historic cable car inaugurated in 1912 and a pioneer in the Americas. The first stage of the ascent takes you up to Morro da Urca, 220 meters high, where the breathtaking scenery opens up before your eyes: Copacabana Beach, Botafogo Cove and the majestic entrance to Guanabara Bay.

    Then the second cable car ride takes you to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain, 396 meters above sea level. There, every angle is a natural masterpiece: the city meeting the sea, the beaches of Leme and Copacabana, the Tijuca Forest, Christ in the distance and the unique contrast between mountains, sea and urban architecture.

    It's the highlight of the tour - literally and symbolically - perfect for taking unforgettable photos and simply contemplating the incomparable beauty that makes Rio one of the most admired cities in the world.

    After contemplating this spectacle of nature and engineering, the vehicle will be waiting to take you back to your hotel. The morning is over, but the feeling of having experienced two of Brazil's greatest symbols in such a short time will remain as a unique and exciting memory.
