Corcovado & Sugar Loaf

Designed for anyone who has a full day available to visit Rio’s two main attractions, this tour is essentially a combination of the City Tour with Sugarloaf plus Corcovado. The first part of the tour takes in various places of interest in downtown Rio de Janeiro: the contemporary Metropolitan Cathedral, with its vast stained-glass windows, and the Aterro do Flamengo, a tranquil, spacious park with lawns and blossoming trees, and lovely views of Rio and Sugarloaf. The tour then proceeds through the old neighborhood of Urca towards the base of Sugarloaf, where you take a cable car for the exhilarating, steep, 215m climb up Morro da Urca. From this intermediate stage, another cable car soars high above the rugged, vegetated terrain to the 395-meter-high summit, from where you can enjoy wonderful panoramic views and spectacular sunsets over Rio de Janeiro. From the Cosme Velho district, a cog and pinion railway climbs the steep forest to the peak of Corcovado (Hunchback). On the summit, at an altitude of 710 meters, the statue of Christ the Redeemer is one of the world’s best-known and most-visited monuments. Clad with a soapstone mosaic, the statue is one of Rio’s finest Art Deco monuments at night the shining landmark is visible from all over the city. From here there are breathtaking views down to the beaches of Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon, the Botanical Gardens, the Jockey Club, and Rodrigo Freitas Lagoon. Located around the base of Corcovado and with many springs and waterfalls, the dense Tijuca Forest was proclaimed a National Park in the early sixties. After the descent through the forest, the tour will make a photo stop at Mário Filho Stadium, known to football fans worldwide as Maracanã, and the nearby Sambódromo, designed by Oscar Niemeyer and the stage for Brazil’s largest and most flamboyant carnival celebrations. The tour includes a delicious lunch at a typical Brazilian restaurant.
