Rdj4u Wanderlust Package for the Intrepid Traveller

Rio de Janeiro is one of the most seductive and charming places on earth, and with the
Olympics just around the corner, the city has never been so lively. Visitors to this tropical urban paradise will find an extraordinary array of things to do, and there is something to suit the desires of every traveller.

Glistening sunbaked sands shadowing the shoreline, stunning panoramic vistas from atop Sugar Loaf Mountain, the iconic artdeco statue of Christ the Redeemer, exquisite belle époque palaces, and a dizzying sambafuelled nightlife – for most cities, this would be enough to satisfy the senses, but in Rio de Janeiro, you have barely scratched the surface. In the hands of Rdj4u and their Wanderlust Package, you can delve deeper into the city’s cultural and societal fabric and discover some wonderful hidden treasures. Here’s what you can enjoy:

Tijuca Rainforest Jeep Tour

Enchanting. Tranquil. Sublime. Take an open top jeep ride through the verdant wonders of
Tijuca Rainforest and learn all about the local ecosystems in the company of an expert guide.

Travellers are often surprised to hear that this vibrant, luxuriant labyrinth of flora and fauna was completely replanted by hand in the late 19th Century, and it is now all that remains of the Atlantic jungle that formerly consumed Rio de Janeiro.

On a tour of Tijuca with Rdj4u, a collection of natural and cultural delights await: soak in the spectacular cascading waters of Cachoeira dos Macacos; visit the legendary Mesa do
Imperador where Dom Pedro II would once take his court for picnics; and gaze at some
spellbinding, uninterrupted views from Vista Chinesa. Astonishing beauty to be found in every direction.

A Trip to Rocinha Favela

Brazil’s rich cultural heritage largely emanated from the favelas of Rio de Janeiro, and they have always been a hotbed of talented artisans and musicians. The original sounds and rhythms of samba were born here, and the mesmerising spectacle of Carnival is organised and refined on the streets of these neighbourhoods.

For decades, the impoverished mountainside district of Rocinha was altogether off limits, but today the situation is much improved and the local residents openly embrace tourism.
Immensely informative, socially enlightening, and entirely safe – this R ocinha Favela Tour offers travellers a truly unique opportunity to gain a better understanding of the city, and uncover an alternative Brazilian reality beyond the landmark attractions.
