Highlights

Enjoy an amazing half-day tour visiting the Sugarloaf Mountain. We take the Sugarloaf cable car to see some of the most spectacular views of our city. The cable car ride to the top of the mountain is done in 2 stages: begin at the boarding station to Urca Mountain (224 meters) and then from Urca Mountain to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain (395 meters). Then, we have a panoramic tour to see the famous shore of Rio de Janeiro. We can admire and take plenty of pictures of the famous beaches of Rio, such as Leblon Beach, Ipanema Beach and Copacabana Beach. Roundtrip transfer, entrance to the Sugarloaf, panoramic tour and tour guide included.

About Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro sweeps between mountains and ocean, a city of famous beaches, granite peaks, samba rhythms and a carnival known around the world.

Christ the Redeemer stands with open arms atop Corcovado, looking down on the city, and cable cars climb Sugarloaf Mountain for views across Guanabara Bay. Below, the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema are the stage for daily life, with volleyball, kiosks and the wave-patterned promenade, while Leblon and Arpoador extend the strip.

Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
