Embark on a two-day trip in Rio de Janeiro and get a sense of its landscape and creative hubs!
Among many others, you'll visit the top three attractions in the city and enjoy a guided historic tour. You will get to see the Escadaria Selaron, Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado Mountain and the amazing view from Sugarloaf Mountain. There will be plenty of free time to lounge on the picturesque beaches of Rio and some time to see the iconic art district of Santa Teresa.
In an ideal world, it would take a week to unveil the city's wonders, but if all you've got is two days for the highlights, go for it and hang out with a local guide who will help you make the most of your time!Embark on a two-day trip in Rio de Janeiro and get a sense of its landscape and creative hubs!
