Customized Private Tours in Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro is such a fascinating destination, which is why it is no surprise that people arrive there by the thousands each day of the year. If you are planning a fabulous vacation to Rio at any time in the future, you are going to want to consider one of Rio Cultural Secrets customized private tours.
These tours can be customized according to what you want to see and do.
Obviously, you can choose to do a shorter tour, but with so many unique and exciting attractions, you will most likely find that your list of must-sees is going to take longer than a couple hours! You can choose the start time for your private tour, but keep in mind that it will need to be earlier in the day if you do decide to do the ten hour one.
We do provide tours outside the capital of Rio de Janeiro, but numerous visitors prefer to stay within the area, especially if this is their first time visiting. A few of our favorite attractions and destinations are as follows:
Theatro Municipal
This spectacular theater can be found within the city center and the inside is filled with marble columns, gilded mirrors, and green onyx staircases. It is one of the most beautiful buildings within the area, and while you will want to see a performance if possible, during your visit, a tour is almost just as amazing.
Copacabana Beach
This beach happens to be the one that everyone wants to see as soon as they arrive in Rio. The atmosphere and electric vibe wakes everyone up and shows them the true culture of the area. During your tour, we recommend stopping here, walking along the promenade that is two and a half miles long, and even participating in a game of soccer or volleyball on the sand.
Christ the Redeemer Statue
You will be able to see the Christ the Redeemer Statue from almost anywhere in Rio, but there is nothing better than seeing is up close and personal at the top of Corcovado Mountain. You can reach the statue via a cog train ride up to the summit before taking an elevator or escalator to the statue itself. Of course, you can also choose to climb up the hundreds of steps that everyone had to tackle before modern technology took over!
Other sights that you are going to love in Rio de Janeiro include Sugarloaf Mountain, the Lapa neighborhood, and Tijuca National Park.
