Christ the Redeemer by Train and Rio Tour
Christ the Redeemer by Train and Rio Tour
At the scheduled time, we will collect you from your hotel and begin our comprehensive tour around the principal places of interest of Rio de Janeiro. First, we board a train which will take us to the Christ the Redeemer, the giant statue of Jesus Christ with arms spread wide open, watching over the inhabitants of what is known as the ‘carioca’ city.
During the train journey, you will experience crossing the tropical jungle for about 20 minutes before arriving at the summit of Corcovado. Everyone has used this train line which was inaugurated in 1884, including popes and kings. These electric trains favor the environmental pledge of the city to not damage Tijuca Forest, the largest urban forest in the world.
Named as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007, the Christ the Redeemer offers one of the best vantage points in Rio.
After, we will descend back to sea level and tour the main attractions of the city. Have you ever dreamt of setting foot in the Maracanã stadium or the Sambadrome? We will take you to both these iconic venues and reveal all their fascinating secrets.
Our tour continues at the Metropolitan Cathedral, a spectacular modern structure with a design influenced by the Mayan temples of Central America. Our final stop is at the Selaron Steps, a work of art of striking colors.
We will end the guided tour back at the original meeting point.
