Christ Redeemer Skip the Line and Sugar Loaf

Highlights / General details

Corcovado and Sugar Loaf at the same day and the best time for you. Yes, it’s possible. Gather round all your friends and familiars (up to 15 persons) and enjoy a great opportunity to meet two of greatest Rio’s landmarks at the same day, on an intimate tour. A van will do the pick-up and the drop off scheduled at the time for your better convenience at most hotels in São Conrado, Leblon, Ipanema and Copacabana, leaving you with more free time to get to know many other wonders in Rio. This is an excellent option to see the best of Rio if time is limited. You’ll travel all the way to the top of Sugar Loaf in two steps by cable car. The first cable car takes us to Urca Hill, a vantage point 215 meters high for which already grants beautiful views of Guanabara Bay and its islands, the Rio-Niterói Bridge and Corcovado Mountain.

From this stage, a second cable car takes us up to the top. At 395 meters we’ll enjoy splendid views of Copacabana beach, the Santa Cruz fortress and several beaches of Niterói.

After the morning ride, the tour proceeds to reach the Cosme Velho Train cog station at the bottom of Corcovado Mountain to take the ride up to the top, through the dense Tijuca rain forest to the 38m tall (125ft) Christ Redeemer Statue. The guide has between 40 and 60 minutes to show the wonderful sights of Rio. From the top, enjoy the spectacular views of Rio and the surrounding countryside.

After riding the train back down, the group are returned to their hotels.
