Celebrating 25 Years of tour excellence

  3. Rio de Janeiro

It's fair to say that Rio de Janeiro is one of the most spectacular cities in the world. The peaks of Sugar Loaf and Corcovado, home of Christ the Redeemer, provide magnificent views over a metropolis that sprawls between mountain, forest and beach, and is home to Brazil’s best architecture, museums and galleries.

Buzzing with joie de vivre, Rio is powered by an ever-present samba beat, that’s only enhanced by its tropical climate. Cariocas (Rio residents) spend much of their time on the beach, but seeing as they have the world’s most famous – Copacabana and Ipanema - who can blame them! It certainly is the Cidade Maravilhosa (Marvellous City).

Things To See In Rio de Janeiro

No trip to Rio de Janeiro would be complete without seeing one of the wonders listed below.

  • Christ the Redeemer

    Christ the Redeemer

    Surely Rio's most recognisable landmark, Christ the Redeemer watches over the city from the 700-metre-high summit of Corcovado mountain. It is visible from almost everywhere in the city and offers spectacular views back over Rio de Janeiro.
  • Copacabana Beach

    Copacabana Beach

    One of the world’s most famous beaches, Copacabana is a glorious 2.5 mile stretch of sand and the stage for everything that we know and love about Brazil, be it football, volleyball, tanning locals or gorgeous scenic views.
  • Sugar Loaf Mountain

    Sugar Loaf Mountain

    Sugarloaf Mountain is another of Rio’s greatest landmarks and from its summit the whole city, coastline, bay and ocean beyond are laid out at your feet – a mesmerising view. Travel up by the famous cable car, originally opened in 1912, which takes you to the top in two stages.
