What you can expect

You will be picked up at 7:00 AM at your address in the areas of Barra da Tijuca, São Conrado, Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon, and taken back at 5:00 PM. You will be accompanied by an exclusive tour guide, certified by the Ministry of Tourism, with in-depth knowledge of the city, who will take care of all the details to ensure your experience is personalised and unforgettable. Tickets for AquaRio, the Sugarloaf cable car and the Corcovado rack railway train are not included, but we can purchase them for you so you don't have to wait in line.

This excursion is exclusive to you, your friends and family — it is not shared with others. The itinerary will be carried out in a comfortable air-conditioned car for up to 4 people. The excursion lasts approximately 10 hours, and we will make 5 stops. If you are staying in Barra da Tijuca, we will start at Praia do Leblon, where we will make our first stop at Mirante do Leblon. There, you can enjoy the beautiful view of the beaches of Leblon and Ipanema. We continue by car along the edge of Ipanema Beach, where you will see the laid-back lifestyle of the Cariocas and learn interesting stories about the area, which was immortalised in the famous song “Garota de Ipanema,” a worldwide icon of Bossa Nova. We continue along the famous Copacabana Beach, home to the largest New Year's Eve party in the world, recognised by the Guinness World Records.

Our second stop is the famous Selarón Steps in the Lapa district, passing by the Botafogo and Flamengo beaches. Learn more about the history of artist Jorge Selarón and his living work, the 3rd most visited place in Rio, decorated with colourful tiles from more than 60 countries — you'll probably find some from your own.

From there, we will head to AquaRio, the largest marine life aquarium in Latin America, our 3rd stop, where you can see sharks, rays and dozens of species of fish, including the famous “Nemo”, or visit the Wax Museum with life-size replicas of world personalities.

The 4th stop is the iconic Sugarloaf Mountain, in the Urca area, where you can take the famous cable car, the setting for the James Bond 007 film. We will stop for lunch (45 to 60 minutes) before continuing by car to Christ the Redeemer. At the 5th stop, Cosme Velho train station, we will take the little train directly to the 7th Wonder of the World. During the trip, you can enjoy the view of the Atlantic Forest. Your guide will always be by your side to ensure an unforgettable experience, tell the storey of Christ the Redeemer, and help you take the best photos. Finally, we will take you back to your address. Shall we?
