Rio de Janeiro has been known as the ‘Wonderful City’ because it combines vibrant culture, architectural and artistic treasures, beautiful beaches, and amazing landmarks such as Christ the Redeemer statue. Start your 6 days in Rio with a city tour to learn about this marvelous city and then have the rest of the time at leisure to explore at your own pace. Maybe ride the tram to the top of Sugarloaf Mountain for panoramic views of the city or relax on the well-known Ipanema Beach, it is up to you.
