After our visit to the statue of the Christ, we will continue our tour to the beautiful Sugar Loaf Mountain. We will arrive at the Praia Vermelha beach located at the base of the Sugar Loaf Mountain. From there, we will start on a wonderful walk along the Pista Claudio Coutinho, a path that takes us along the foot of the Sugar Loaf through the green forest along the Atlantic Ocean.

At the Pista Claudio Coutinho, we will be able to appreciate the spectacular view of the ocean and the mountain. We might also be able to spot some “Saguis” which are small monkeys and other exotic animals.

After our walk, we will continue up to the “Morro da Urca” or “Urca Hill” station, the middle station on the way to the Sugar Loaf, with 220 meter of altitude. From there, we will continue by cable car to the Sugar Loaf Mountain with 396 meters of altitude to enjoy the wonderful view of the city of Rio de Janeiro. The cable cars were inaugurated in 1912, and were the first cablecars installed in Brazil and the third in the world. Come and visit the Sugar Loaf Mountain like many celebrities have, such as Albert Einstein, John Kennedy, Sting and others.

This is a very interesting and relaxing half day tour, where all can participate!
