Day 1
Arrival at the international airport of Rio de Janeiro. Assistance
with a nameboard will be waiting for you. Transfer to your hotel
near one of Rio's beautiful beaches.
Day 2
In the morning excursion to the Tijuca forest and Crist the Redeemer
statue. You will be surprised to find yourself in the tropical
rainforest. A cogtrain will take you up the Corcovado mountain
and a beautiful view will open up as you get higher. When the
train will leave you on top, in the open arms of Crist the Redeemer
that stands on one of Rio's highest points, the view that will
open under you will take your breath away. North, South, East
and West beautiful Rio will spread out under you.
When you will have taken enough pictures of the
view (if ever) the cogtrain will take you down and we will visit
the Naif Art Museum, with the most extensive collection of this
happy modern naif art in the world. You will see beautiful colourful
pictures that will fully reflect the Brazilian happy and hospitalarian
spirit and the beauty of Rio reflected by its artists will make
you wish you could take home all this beauty to have a possibility
to admire it.
Afternoon free to enjoy the city, go shopping
or take some optional excursions.
Day 3
Morning free for a beachvisit.
In the afternoon you will be picked up from your
hotel for a visit of the Sugarloaf. We will step in the cablecar
and go up the mountain until we will get to the first viewpoint
at the Morro da Urca. As the Praia Vermelha beach under us will
seem like a far picture and the palmtrees and fisherboats look
like toys, we will take another cablecar to get even higher upon
the Pão de Açúcar mountain. We will be able
to enjoy sunset over Rio from this beautiful viewpoint. As the
sun goes under and the many coloured lights go on in this wonderful
city, it reminds us a collection of precious stones shining with
bright colours under us.

excursions.
