CORCOVADO / CHRIST OF THE REEDEMER STATUE
After the pick-up we will start the tour from Copacabana beach. We will drive along Botafogo beach passing by the Guanabara Palace, the official residence of the State Governor, on route to Laranjeiras and Cosme Velho districts, where you will be able to appreciate the old Coffee farm homes of the 1800s. The tour will reach Tijuca Forest with a stop at Paineiras to board the official vehicles of the National Park Authority to be able to reach the top of the Corcovado Hill. From there you will be able to admire The Christ of the Redeemer statue, which has 38m in height and was made of reinforced concrete clad in a mosaic of thousands of triangular soapstone tiles, and also will have a chance to see some of the most beautiful views of the city. The visit to the monument will last around 45 minutes.
On our way down, we will see Largo do Boticário and Casa dos Abacaxis, relics of the Brazilian Imperial architecture. We will take our way back through via Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas or Copacabana for the drop-off at the hotels.
Remark: In case of poor visibility on the summit of the Corcovado, we will make an alternative stop at Mirante Dona Marta (362m), generally less affected by cloudiness.
