Explore majestic Rio de Janeiro with experienced local tour guide, Daniel Almeida.    Visit big landmarks like Selaron Staircase, Sugar Loaf, Corcovado (Christ) as well as some off-the-beaten path spots - including local food.  The tour will base itself from the beautiful and artistic Santa Teresa neighborhood. 

On Day 1 explore the famous and outrageous Selaron Staircase, Ruin's Park, Guimarães Square, eat your first authentic Brazilian Acai, and Pao de Queijo.  This day will also have some time for shopping. 

The main attraction today will be Sugar Loaf as well as Cinelandia, Olimpic Boulevard, and one of the coolest historic coffee shops.  We may even be able to squeeze some beach time in at Sugar Loaf!

Today explore the gorgeous Ipanema and get taken to the best Corcovado Vista Point in the city!  Its our opinion that viewing Corcovado is much better than entering.  We will also have time for the beach in Ipanema.
