Full-Day Christ the Redeemer and Rio City Tour from Buzios
City tour in Rio de Janeiro from Búzios. If you are staying in Búzios and you want to see the famous spots in Rio, then this is the tour for you.

We stop for a buffet lunch (drinks and desserts not included). We visit the Escadaria Selarón and we see the beautiful shores of Rio de Janeiro (Leblon, Ipanema, Copacabana).
