Overview

Take the Corcovado Train to see the Christ the Reedemer and the faster line at the Sugarloaf.
We take the Corcovado Train to visit Christ the Redeemer. The train crosses the Tijuca Forest to the top of Corcovado Hill to reach the Christ statue. We can enjoy beautiful views from the top of the Corcovado hill.
Then, we go to the Sugarloaf Mountain. We go through the express line. The cable car to the top of the mountain is done in two stages: it starts at the boarding point to the Urca Mountain and then from the Urca Mountain to the top of the Sugarloaf Mountain.
We stop for a buffet lunch along the way. We also visit the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Selarón Staircase. We also take pictures outside the Sambadrome and Maracanã Stadium.

What to expect

  1. Santuario Cristo Redentor
    2h · Admission ticket included
    We take the Corcovado Train to see the Christ, the Redeemer. It is the fastest way to get there.
  2. Escadaria Selaron
    30m
    Located in Santa Teresa, the Selarón Steps are famous for its bright and colourfull tiles.
  3. The Metropolitan Cathedral of Saint Sebastian
    30m
    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.
  4. Sambodromo da Marques de Sapucai
    30m · Admission ticket not included
    The Sambodromo is the Carnival Temple and the place we compete every year in the biggest celebration of carnival in the planet.
  5. 30m · Admission ticket not included
    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. We can take pictures outside of the Stadium and share stories about our favorite matches.
  6. Sugarloaf Mountain
    2h · Admission ticket included
    We take the fast line access to the Sugarloaf Mountain.
