This usually is a 7-8-hr-combo tour of both Sugar Loaf and Corcovado (peak upon which stands the Christ statue), with a city-tour of downtown's principal sites, a cruise along the famous beaches, a brief visit to Rio's Tijuca forest (largest urban jungle), and much more ...

One could also divide this into two half-day tours (4-5 hrs), visiting one of the peaks on each of the days ...

Since you'd be hiring by the hour, you might want to design your own tour - assisted by my expert suggestions, of course.

Anyhow: It'd be a day to remember, I assure you.

And evening's outings to some of the best locales in Rio can be booked too; samba-shows, Rio's world-famous 'churrascarias', jazz-clubs, spas ... you're welcome to consult. I'll promtly provide un-biased advice.

Private attention during carnival is also offered.
