We stop for a buffet lunch (drinks and desserts not included). We visit the Escadaria Selarón and we see the beautiful shores of Rio de Janeiro (Leblon, Ipanema, Copacabana).

Itinerary
Enjoy the 3-hour ride from Buzios to Rio. Relax, enjoy the view and listen to the information provided by the tour guide.
The Christ the Redeemer is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. We take the minivan through the Tijuca Forest to reach the statue.
The Sambodromo is the Carnival Temple and the place we compete every year in the biggest celebration of carnival in the planet. The place is temporarily closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. We will take pictures in the outside area.
Football - or soccer, if you prefer - is part of the Brazilian life. We love to watch the games and share experiences with complete strangers that get together for one purpose: support their team on the field. The Maracanã Stadium is considered our temple and a sacred place for those who enjoy a great game. The place is temporarily closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. We will take pictures in the outside area.
The modern archtecture is very different from the traditional cathedrals we see out there. Enjoy the beautiful stained glasses and try to guess the biblical passages they got their inspiration from.
Located in Downtown, the Selarón Steps are famous for its bright and colourfull tiles.
After a busy day, relax and enjoy the ride back to Búzio. Transfer time: approx. 3 hours.

A great experience... Marlady was our guide, and seriously, she was the best guide of all. She told us various historical things during the tour, took us to the best places and showed us Rio in a formidable way... We loved the tour and both I and my fiancé loved it... I recommend asking her as a guide, made the difference.. very charismatic and cheerful!!! Worth it; 200 stars ❤️
The place is amazing, the street of the stones is a charm, we stayed in Cabo frío and we went more to the beaches of arraial which are more beautiful, but I will definitely stay in buzios next time

Monica and Carlos were the perfect tandem of leader and driver. Monica was highly energetic and passionate. Carlos got us all around quickly and safely. It was a beautiful day seeing everything with lunch. Well worth it!
Hello! Thank you very much for your comment. It is very important for us to know what our customers experienced in our service and with our staff. We are happy to hear that it was a good time and that you enjoyed our guide! We hope you will come back soon for more special moments.
Great places to visit and comfortable vehicle. Our greatest disappointment is that we booked a tour with sn English speaking guide but did not get one. We felt that We missed out on the history of the places without verbal explanation during the tour. I think we should have a partial refund.
