Itinerary
- Day 1
Rio de Janeiro
Your hotel pickup happens early morning by mini-bus, then you'll head to Sao Conrado Beach where hang gliders land right on the sand - it's quite the sight. From there, you move into Tijuca Forest rainforest for some walking through the trails and greenery. After that, you're heading up to Christ the Redeemer statue at the top for views across the city, which takes a bit of time to get up there. You'll grab lunch in Santa Teresa and then spend time walking the colorful streets and checking out the famous Escadaria Selaron steps (those hand-painted tile steps are really something). If you want to add it on, there's an option for a sunset visit to Sugarloaf Mountain before your return to the hotel.
