Copacabana and Ipanema, captivate visitors with their pristine golden sands and crystal-clear waters. Overlooking it all is the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue, perched atop Corcovado Mountain, offering stunning panoramic views of the city. Make sure you don’t miss sunset from Sugarloaf Mountain. The cable cart ride is already a treat as the views of the city and the coast slowly unview as you travel to the top. TOP TIP – if you want to see the sunset we recommend booking fast track tickets. You skip all the queues and get to the top in no time. They are more expensive but worth it!
