Enjoy the majestic landscapes that surround Rio with this tour of the National Park of Tijuca and the neighbouring area, which is home to the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue.

Tour Details

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Rio at the designated time, and from there we'll climb aboard a minibus and begin our tour of Christ the Redeemer and the Tijuca National Park.

We'll begin our adventure by visiting the famous Christ the Redeemer, to avoid queues and take the best photos. From its world-famous viewpoint, you'll be able to drink in the incredible views of the beaches and skyscrapers of Rio de Janiero: cameras at the ready everyone!

The tour continues to the picturesque Santa Teresa neighbourhood, a popular district for local artists. It's also well known for the bondinho, a historic tram that still connects Rio. And you'll catch a glimpse of the famous Selarón steps, known for their colourful decoration.

From here, we'll head to the Rio de Janeiro Cathedral, a unique building in the centre of Rio, and we'll pass by the Maracaná Stadium. Next, you'll have some free time where you can grab some lunch.

Having re-energised, we'll visit Parque Lage, a historical and cultural park located at the base of the Corcovado mountain range belonging to the Tijuca National Park. This protected area includes one of the biggest urban jungles in the world

Lastly, we'll give you the option: head to Sugarloaf Mountain, where you can take a cable car to the top of this magnificent hill, or alternatively, end the tour by dropping you off at your hotel.

Hotel Pickup

This tour includes pickup from hotels located in the Botafogo (beach), Copacabana, and Ipanema areas. If you're staying in downtown Rio de Janeiro, we'll meet at the Villa 25 Hostel at 6:50 a.m. If you're staying in any other area, we'll meet at the Mango Tree Hostel Ipanema at 7:35 am.
