Our natural tour does not stop here! Next we will firsthand witness the “lungs of Rio” in the form of Tijuca Forest, a massive urban forest representing almost 7% of the whole city! Spot the wild birds, exotic small animals and various unique plants as we make our way through the mass of green vegetation. Watch out for the monkeys! The most common monkeys found here are the Saguis and Capuchin and are loved by all! Look out for the toucans, canary birds, hawks and buzzards among many others. There is so much to see here and to consider, you won’t want to miss a single second of it and remember to bring a camera in order to capture the splendor!



Our tour will pass by the Chinese View Belvedere which hosts the magnificent sights of the Ipanama and Copacabana beaches, Guanabara Bay and the Sugar Loaf. Time for a refreshing walk to contemplate the scenes around you by taking the nature trail that consists of fun facts concerning the flora and the ecosystem.
