On this private customizable tour of Rio de Janeiro, accompanied with your knowledgeable local guide, choose your itinerary and head to whichever neighborhoods, beaches, or city landmarks you'd like such as beautiful beaches, Santa Teresa, or the Christ the Redeemer statue.
Enjoy roundtrip transportation and explore Rio de Janeiro, called “Cidade Maravilhosa” or “marvelous city,” known for its natural beauty, carnival celebrations, samba, and famous beaches like Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon. See landmarks such as the Christ the Redeemer statue atop Corcovado Mountain, Sugarloaf Mountain with its cable car, and Maracanã Stadium, one of the world's largest football stadiums which hosts matches for Rio's major teams.
With half a day to see the sights, choosing the best itinerary may be a difficult task. If you like, visit the neighborhood of Santa Teresa and walk along cobbled streets to see the Selarón Steps and the Centro Cultural Municipal Parque das Ruínas.
Admire the buildings of downtown Rio or visit the Botanical Garden, a unique park due the variety of species, and behold the view surrounded by Tijuca Rainforest. If you wish, take the ride up to the 125-foot (38-m) tall Christ the Redeemer statue and behold the view of the Tijuca Rainforest.
