Overview of your Rio de janeiro tour:

Imperial summer city of royal family driving up the mountains. 70km away from Rio, Petropolis has a totally different atmosphere and architecture from Rio. The city was founded by D. Peter the II to build the summer imperial palace for the portguese royal family. Petropolis has a unique architectural ensemble, such as the Quitandinha Palace, the St. Peter's Cathedral of Alcantara, the Crystal Palace, the Santos Dumont House, the Imperial Museum, and many colonial houses in the historical center. This tour can be customized to your needs. I want it to be a special day for you.

Your Rio de janeiro tour itinerary

This will be our itinerary in Petropolis: - Pick-up at your place (in the south or central zones of Rio). - Quitandinha Palace: visit the garden and inside of the once biggest hotel casino of South America. - Imperial Museum: used to be the summer house of the imperial family. - St. Peter of Alcantara Cathedral: exotic church with neo-gothic architecture. - Stop for lunch in a delicious portuguese restaurant. - Crystal Palace: built to be Princess Isabel's botanical garden, today it hosts exhibitions and events. - Santos Dumont museum: house where santos dumont lived years before he die. - Drop-off at your place.

Transportation Details
Type: Private Transportation / Category: Suv

​​My car is a 7-seater SUV and can accommodate 6 passengers (plus me as the driver guide). For tours, I recommend a total of 4 adults and 2 more persons up to 1.70 meters tall in the 2 back seats. For more than 4 adults over 1.70 meters, I rent a van (at an extra cost), so that the tour is extremely comfortable for everyone.
