South America Adventure Travel takes you to the vibrant, fun-loving former capital of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro. This metropolis is set between beautifully forested mountains and white sand beaches, providing the most unique and spectacular panoramas. On South America Adventure Travel's Rio de Janeiro city tours you'll be taken to the breathtaking heights of Sugarloaf Mountain and Corcovado Mountain, where the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue has full view of the incredible city. Though Rio de Janeiro has a rich artistic and cultural heritage, the beach is a way of life here, and it is a fondness for fun that drives the Rio residents. This infectious fun-loving spirit is sure to rub off on visitors during one of our Rio de Janeiro tours. Famed for huge Carnival celebrations, Samba and football, Rio de Janeiro is a passionate city full of things to explore and excite. The only worry is whether you'll want to leave the city where the locals claim that 'God himself created the world in six days, but spent the seventh making Rio'.
