Activity itinerary

Leblon Beach

This is our first photo stop at the viewpoint of Leblon beach, one of the most elegant and prestigious neighborhoods in Rio de Janeiro. Located in the South Zone, it borders Ipanema and is known for its more tranquil, residential, and sophisticated atmosphere. We will deboard for 5 minutes. Next, we will continue driving along the coast, passing by the beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana.

Ipanema Beach (Pass by)

Before us lies the famous Ipanema Beach, immortalized worldwide by the song "The Girl from Ipanema," by Tom Jobim and Vinicius de Moraes. This song helped spread the name of the neighborhood around the world, making Ipanema a symbol of bossa nova and the Carioca lifestyle.

Copacabana Beach (Pass by)

In front of us is Copacabana Beach, which stretches for approximately 4.5 kilometers, framed by this iconic black and white wave-patterned promenade. Inspired by the sidewalks of Lisbon, its design has become one of the most photographed tourist attractions in Brazil. Copacabana emerged at the end of the 19th century and developed rapidly after the opening of the Túnel Velho, which connected the area to the city center. For decades, the neighborhood was the most elegant address in Rio, the stage for grand balls, casinos, and luxury hotels.

Escadaria Selaron

We are in one of the most iconic and photographed places in Rio de Janeiro: the Selarón Steps. This staircase connects the neighborhoods of Lapa and Santa Teresa and is a true open-air work of art. It was created by the Chilean artist Jorge Selarón, who arrived in Brazil in the 1940s and fell in love with Rio de Janeiro. According to him, this staircase was his way of declaring his eternal love for the city. The construction began in 1990 and, interestingly, it was never really considered completed. Selarón said he would only finish it on the day of his death, which became one of the most striking curiosities of the place.

AquaRio

45m
Admission ticket included

In the largest marine life aquarium in Latin America, you will see sharks, rays, and dozens of species of fish. Find the famous "Nemo," the fish character from the Walt Disney animated film, and walk thru the aquarium tunnel to take amazing photos.

Sugarloaf Mountain

50m
Admission ticket included

Welcome to one of the most iconic tourist attractions in Brazil and the world: the Sugarloaf Mountain Cable Car, here in the marvelous city of Rio de Janeiro. We are in the neighborhood of Urca, one of the most charming and tranquil in the city. The journey is divided into two stages: first to Morro da Urca and then to the top of Pão de Açúcar, which reaches approximately 396 meters above sea level. Curiously, this cable car was inaugurated in 1912, being the first cable car in Brazil and the third in the world. At the time, it was considered a true engineering feat and, to this day, it operates with the highest safety standards.

Corcovado - Christ the Redeemer

50m
Admission ticket included

Now, about our trip: the Corcovado Train, popularly known as the "little train," was inaugurated in 1884, long before the existence of Christ the Redeemer. It was the first electric train in Brazil and played a fundamental role in transporting the statue's pieces during its construction. The route is approximately 3.8 kilometers long and crosses the Atlantic Forest, where it is possible to spot coatis, monkeys, native birds, and lush vegetation. Before us stands the Christ the Redeemer, inaugurated on October 12, 1931. We are located approximately 710 meters above sea level, within the Tijuca National Park, the largest reforested urban forest in the world.
