At the designated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Rio de Janeiro to start this experience in Brazilian nature. Ready? Let's go!

Our first stop will be the Tijuca Forest, located in the center of Rio de Janeiro. We'll visit one of the largest urban forests in the world, where we'll be able to see animals such as squirrels, monkeys and armadillos, as well as different species of butterflies, birds and reptiles.

Then, we'll be heading to our next destination, but on our way, we'll stop at the Vista Chinesa viewpoint, the Taunay waterfall, the Capela Mayrink and its pink facade, and another viewpoint from which we'll admire a beautiful view of the monolithic Pedra da Gávea and Christ the Redeemer.

Then, we'll finally arrive at the Botanical Garden, where we'll explore tropical plants it houses -there are over 7000 species in the garden.

Once there, we'll also visit the Frei Landro Lake, the Chafariz das Musas sculpture, the beautiful Japanese Garden and the Orchidarium. We'll be able to admire its varied species of tropical plants such as bromeliads and orchids.

After a total of 4.5 hours, we'll say our goodbyes at the starting point.
