The Best of Rio de Janeiro and Sunset in Sugarloaf

 

Spend an afternoon visiting Rio's most incredible sights on a tour that shows off the great views and grand attractions around Guanabara Bay. Your guide brings you to all prime landmarks: Christ The Redeemer, Metropolitan Cathedral, Selarón Steps, and Sugarloaf Mountain - along with vantage points on the mountains that stand over the city's most famous scenery.

The tour begins with a ride from your hotel to Corcovado, the 2,329-foot-tall (710-m) mountain famous for the colossal statue of Christ the Redeemer, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World at its summit. After the drive through the Tijuca Forest that covers most of the mountain, admire the wonderful landscape around you from a viewpoint at the statue's feet.

Next, your guide takes you to the iconic Metropolitan Cathedral of Rio de Janeiro and the Selarón Steps, whose tiles of vivid colors take on a warm glow in the evening sun. Finish with a cable car ride to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain, where you get one of the city's most beautiful panoramic views and a chance to admire the sunset before you head back to your hotel.
