Highlights
- Corcovado - Christ the Redeemer - We visit to Corcovado Mountain and the Christ the Redeemer statue going through the Paineiras route. The 20-minute drive to the base of the statue takes you through the Tijuca Forest and gives you a preview of the landscapes ahead. The statue stands 710 meters tall and from this vantage point, you’ll have sweeping views of the city.

Fun & Informative - I loved this tour! Our tour guide, Renato, was funny, informative, and kind. You get to see the most iconic parts of Rio. The tour is quick-paced. Some people might like this or not, for me it was perfect because the information regarding the landmarks was shared during our commute and once we arrived, we got to enjoyed the place with pictures. I recommend this tour if you have a short stay in Rio!

Wonderful excursion. It's worth it. - I went hiking with Mrs. Monica. I have made various excursions with various guides but I must say that like her I have never found. Very prepared, kind and organized, but above all attentive to the group. I really liked the walk and how it was organized. Oh, congratulations.

10/10 - Excellent everything. The guide was very friendly throughout and explained in Spanish and English the history of the city. They also respected what was agreed, schedules, air conditioning, times in the places. And they had the best price of all. Highly recommended.
