The programme

We leave the port behind us and begin exploring the city. The route gives us the opportunity of admiring Flamengo Park and Botafogo beach before reaching Praia Vermelha in the Urca neighbourhood.
A funicular cable ride takes us up to the Sugarloaf Mountain, the most famous in Rio de Janeiro and maybe among the most famous in the world for its beauty and the spectacular view that can be enjoyed from the top.
Our climb is divided into two stages . After the first, we reach Urca hill with its gardens and panoramic terraces; after the second, we can enjoy a spectacular view over the city, its beaches, Guanabara bay and the Corcovado on the horizon.
After admiring the breathtaking views, there is yet more to see. We head back to the coach and continue towards Copacabana before returning to the ship.
