Today, explore two of the most iconic landmarks in Rio de Janeiro with your local leader. Begin with a visit to Christ the Redeemer, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Travel up Corcovado Mountain and admire breathtaking panoramic views over Rio from 710 metres above sea level while standing beneath the city’s world-famous statue.
Next, continue to Sugarloaf Mountain, rising dramatically above Guanabara Bay. Named for its resemblance to the traditional cone-shaped blocks of sugar once traded in Brazil, Sugarloaf offers spectacular coastal and city views from its summit.
This evening is free for you to enjoy Rio at your own pace. Whether you choose to explore the lively nightlife, relax by the beach or sample classic Brazilian dishes like feijoada or traditional barbecue, your leader will be happy to recommend the best local spots.
