Sunrise at Sugarloaf & Christ the Redeemer

Tour Overview

See Rio de Janeiro at its most magical hour on a private sunrise tour that combines two of the city’s most iconic landmarks: Sugarloaf Mountain and Christ the Redeemer. Your experience begins around 4:00 AM, when your private guide picks you up at your accommodation and takes you through the quiet streets of Rio before the city wakes up. You’ll first head to Sugarloaf Mountain, where you’ll ride the cable cars up in time to watch the first light of day slowly reveal Guanabara Bay, the beaches of Copacabana, and the dramatic mountain skyline. The soft morning light and calm atmosphere make this one of the most unforgettable ways to experience Rio. Complete the experience with a delicious breakfast at Clássico Sunset Club — a panoramic open-air spot with breathtaking views over Guanabara Bay and Rio’s skyline. After sunrise at Sugarloaf, continue to Christ the Redeemer with early-morning access, avoiding the biggest crowds and enjoying a more peaceful visit at one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. From the top of Corcovado Mountain, you’ll have panoramic views over the entire city as it comes to life in the early hours. Throughout the tour, your guide will help with the best viewpoints, framing, and timing for photos, making this experience ideal for travelers who want both iconic sights and memorable images. With private transportation, skip-the-line tickets included, and a carefully planned early start, this sunrise tour offers a premium and intimate way to see Rio from above. This experience is perfect for couples, solo travelers, friends, and small groups who want something truly special — a quiet, cinematic way to start the day in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
