Make the most of your time in one of Brazil's most iconic cities with our Rio de Janeiro Layover Tour. We'll meet you at the airport and take you to the city's most symbolic sites and monuments.
Rio de Janeiro Layover Tour
On our layover tour in Rio de Janeiro, you'll be picked up by an English-speaking guide in a private vehicle and dropped off at the airport after the tour. When you get to the airport, we'll be waiting for you with a sign that has your name on it. Depending on how much time you've got in Rio, you can choose either our 4 or 6-hour tour. You'll also be able to modify the route we follow to your liking.
4-Hour Tour
Once we've picked you up from the airport, we'll head to the most famous beaches in Rio de Janeiro: Leblon, Ipanema, Arpoador and Copacabana. In addition, we'll visit the Leblon Viewpoint and step out of our vehicle at Flamengo Hill to see the famous Sugarloaf Mountain.
6-Hour Tour
If you go for this tour, we'll visit the main beaches in Rio de Janeiro as in the 4-hour tour. As well as this, we'll tour central Rio de Janeiro and pass by Cinelandia and Praça XV. You'll also see some of the most important historic monuments in this part of the city and travel through the Tijuca Forest, which has been declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO.
Important: Layover Times
Please bear in mind that a round-trip between Rio de Janeiro Airport and the city centre takes 1 hour 30 minutes and that you'll need to be at the airport 2 hours before your departing flight. For example, for our 4-hour tour we recommend having a layover of at least 7 hours 30 minutes.
