About this experience
Embark on an adventurous half-day tour in Rio!
Starting with hotel pickup, we take you to the pier to board on a boat to see the Lagoon of Barra da Tijuca. Filled with caimans and capybaras, the lagoon is a special place to see these animals upclose. Prepare your cameras for amazing pictures. This unique guided tour is one of those hidden treasures in the city. Known by locals as "Pantanal Carioca", you will be able to admire the beauty and the diversity of its fauna and flora. If you are a fan of nature, this tour will be perfect for a break from the urban side of the city. After the boat, we return to the hotel.
We offer it twice a day: in the morning or in the afternoon to see the sunset.
