Guests can enjoy direct access to the beachfront promenade, unwind by the rooftop pool with stunning views, stay active in the fully equipped gym, and relax in the sauna after a day exploring the city’s nearby attractions.

Shared Full day Christ Redeemer and Sugar Loaf
Morning pick up for a full day tour of Rio de Janeiro, visiting the 38-metre-high statue of Christ the Redeemer on the summit of Corcovado Mountain, with its spectacular views of Rio. Then we go to the Pao de Aucar (Sugarloaf Mountain), reached by a spectacular cable car.
Lunch is included.

Carnival Experience
If you've ever been curious about the crazy annual celebration called Carnaval, how the samba schools prepare the costumes, the floats, the music... how the famed dancers dance that sexy samba, then this tour is for you. We partner with two of the most famous Samba Schools in Rio: Mangueira and Grande Rio. The schools present how this world wonders all started; a history rich & interesting for all ages to personally experience. We will visit a place called "City of Samba" where many samba schools have enormous studios and work meticulously to produce Carnaval (it's where the magic starts!). The experience includes costume dressing (get ready for those selfies!), history lessons of the dance and evolution of the festival, a samba dance show, and much more.

Pousada Pedra da Laguna (4*)
Nestled amid lush native vegetation just a short walk from Ferradura Beach, Pedra da Laguna Boutique Hotel & Spa offers a tranquil and elegant retreat in one of Búzios’ most scenic spots. Overlooking the breathtaking Ponta da Lagoinha, this charming hotel features stylish rooms, serene swimming pools, a steam sauna, and the indulgent Ananda Spa. Guests can savor contemporary cuisine at the Orange Bistrô, which sources fresh ingredients from local suppliers and its own organic garden. With gazebos, a relaxing pool bar, and easy access to eco trails and moonlit views.

Shared Half-day City Tour
