Description
City Tour – Christ Statue + Tijuca Forest + Historic Downtown + Maracana Stadium
Discover the very best of Rio de Janeiro on a full-day tour that combines the city’s most iconic landmarks, breathtaking viewpoints, rich history, and vibrant culture.
The tour begins at the world-famous Christ the Redeemer, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World and Rio’s most celebrated attraction. Located atop Corcovado Mountain, the monument offers spectacular panoramic views of the city, its beaches, mountains, and Guanabara Bay. Admission tickets are included.
After visiting Christ the Redeemer, we continue to the beautiful Lage Park, a historic mansion surrounded by lush Atlantic Forest at the foot of Corcovado Mountain, within the Tijuca National Park. Its elegant architecture, tropical gardens, and towering imperial palm trees make it one of Rio’s most charming locations.
Following a lunch break (not included), the tour proceeds to the legendary Maracanã Stadium, where you will learn about the history of Brazilian football while admiring one of the world's most famous stadiums from the outside.
Next, we explore Rio’s fascinating Historic Downtown, where more than five centuries of history come to life. Walking through streets lined with colonial, imperial, and republican architecture, you will discover historic churches, cultural landmarks, and important buildings that tell the story of Rio’s transformation over the centuries.
At the end of the tour, you may choose to return comfortably to your hotel or be dropped off at the Sugarloaf Cable Car station. From there, you can purchase your ticket and visit Sugarloaf Mountain independently, enjoying the sunset at your own pace.
