Itinerary
Praia da Reserva, also known as Praia da Reserva de Marapendi, is a beach located in the Barra da Tijuca neighborhood, in the West Zone of the city of Rio de Janeiro. With about 8.0 km in length, it is located between Praia da Barra da Tijuca and Praia do Recreio.
Barra da Tijuca beach is the main beach in the region and extends along Sernambetiba avenue to Recreio dos Bandeirantes. It is the longest beach in the state of Rio de Janeiro,[9] with eighteen kilometers in length. From Ayrton Senna Avenue, the beach does not have a boardwalk, as it is a region of environmental preservation.
Joatinga beach is located in the Joá neighborhood. It is a beach, less than 30 m long, which you can travel from one end to the other in ten minutes.
Pedra da Gávea is a monolithic mountain in the Tijuca Forest in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Composed of granite and gneiss, its altitude is 842 meters, making it one of the highest mountains in the world along the ocean shores.
The beach is about 11 km long, starting at the end of Avenida Niemeyer and going to the São Conrado Tunnel. The beach of São Conrado is characterized by clear, soft sand and strong waves that are the biggest attraction for surfers in the region, but which, unfortunately, is usually unsuitable for bathing due to pollution.
Morro Dois Irmãos is a rock formation in the neighborhood of Vidigal, in Rio de Janeiro. Its top, 533 meters above sea level, is higher than the Sugar Loaf.
Leblon beach is a good beach to take the kids, it's quieter, less crowded than Ipanema and Arpoador, and usually the sea is also calmer. It's usually a family beach too, where parents take the kids. Soon it is a less tumultuous, messy environment.
The beautiful beach of Ipanema is undoubtedly one of the must-see spots that every tourist should know, located in the southern district of Rio de Janeiro, Ipanema, in addition to being one of the biggest attractions, is a neighbor of other great spots, such as Copacabana Beach. and Leblon Beach.
Arpoador is a beach and a rock formation, both located in the neighborhood of Ipanema, in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Copacabana Beach is a beach located in the Copacabana neighborhood, in the South Zone of the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is considered one of the most famous beaches in the world.
Praia Vermelha is a tiny and hidden beach located at the foot of the Sugar Loaf. It is located in the Urca neighborhood, a pleasant, charming and one of the safest region in the city. Despite not being among the most popular beaches in Rio de Janeiro, it is very suitable for those who want a place away from the crowds and surrounded by beauty.
Monumento Natural dos Morros do Pão de Açúcar and Urca is a complex of hills located in the neighborhood of Urca, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is made up of the Sugar Loaf Mountain and the Urca Mountain.
Rodrigo de Freitas is a lagoon located in the South Zone of the municipality of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Although it receives water from several tributary rivers that descend from the surrounding slopes, among which Rio dos Macacos stands out, it has brackish waters.
It is located in a gigantic area of the south side of the city, where there are no buildings with more than two floors, as it is a protected area by the municipality. This gives the impression that we are not in the middle of a stone jungle, with very populated neighborhoods surrounding the entire area. The result is that, upon entering the JCB, the view of the surrounding Atlantic forest, on the hills that surround the south side of the city, as well as the wide sky that reveals itself without the frame of buildings, provide the visitor with the feeling that are not in town.
The thriving residential neighborhood Jardim Botânico bears the same name as the Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro, where visitors stroll through the home of orchids, imperial palms and water lilies.
Tijuca National Park is a Brazilian conservation unit for integral nature protection located entirely in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
Christ the Redeemer is an art deco statue depicting Jesus Christ, located at the top of Corcovado Hill, 709 meters above sea level, overlooking a considerable part of the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro.

The Rio2Fly team was excellent in accommodating us ! Even with our last minute charge from closed door to open door ! They make the whole experience even better. We felt so safe and secure in the helicopter !
This was an incredible experience. We were the last flight of the day, and they were patient with us because we were late due to Rio traffic. The weather was not great that day but they gave us the best experience possible under the circumstances. We flew by Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf Mountain, and all the beaches. There is nothing like experiencing these things from the air. The entire staff was kind and courteous from beginning to end. A top notch and well-run company. If you are thinking about doing this, book with confidence.
Amazing experience everyone was super helpful
High professional and welcoming people. They responded to queries via WhatsApp promptly. High recommended
Great flight providing icons views of all the major landmarks highly recommended
I did the reservation over WhatsApp. The response was friendly and fast. We booked late in the evening and could go right in the morning. Feels really safe and organized. Nice view over Rio.
The tour company is truly caring and responsive. They arranged everything thoughtfully to make the trip comfortable, personalized, and safe. Before the trip, they evaluated the best date and weather conditions to ensure the experience was perfect. As this was a private trip, the flexibility they offered was especially important. It’s the best way to enjoy a breathtaking overview of the city from the sky! Highly recommended!
I’m so glad I read the reviews here on trip advisor. I was about to book with another company and saw so many 1 start reviews, they’ll pack a helicopter with 6 people and the people stuck in the middle couldn’t even move their arms. Our experience with Rio2Fly was fantastic. They’re very professional, from the moment you check-in the ladies at the reception area, to the guys that take you to your helicopter, to the pilot, I have nothing but great things to say about the staff! For this flight it was just my husband and I, and I got to seat on the front, highly recommend if you get the chance. Overall the flight was awesome!! We went all the way to see Christ the Redeemer, the sugar loaf, many beaches. Truly incredible views. I’m afraid of heights and trust, I felt safe and comfortable the entire flight. This is a must if you come to Rio!
Fantastic! What a VIP experience - a great way to see Christ the Reemer and the epic mountain scenery! And we got 10% off for paying in cash which was a great bonus.
Amazing experience with Fllytour in Rio! The flight was smooth, the staff professional, and the views over Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf, and the beaches were absolutely unforgettable. A must-do if you’re visiting Rio—worth every penny!
This was truly an amazing experience, Vivas and Giovanna were super helpful and supportive. Highly recommend! We saw all main landmarks and loved it so much we booked it twice!
Excellent service. Everyone is so kind, polite, professional and helpful. The views are magnificent!! The pilot, ground crew, and office staff are wonderful. They made our accessible tour possible. It’s a MUST DO !!
Awesome experience seeing Rio from the air. I would highly recommend this! The pilot did a wonderful job explaining all of the local attractions to us.
Fantastic flight over Rio with our pilot pointing out the sightseeing points. Smooth flight and felt so relaxed. We covered lots of the city flying over the beaches, close to the mountains.
Amazing sunset ride! We did a private helicopter experience and it was 100% worth it. I would recommend this to anyone :)
Simply a MUST DO when visiting Rio. Very professionally run operation. Gives you a whole new perspective on the city. I highly recommend the 45 minute tour.
We had a great time and the team was super nice. Everything was perfectly organized from the first minute till the end. To see Rio from this point of view was an experience that I will never forget. Thanks a lot.
Excellent in all ways! Staff super friendly and highly professional… the flight is stunning! You will love this experience:)
Amazing view from the top. The sunset tour was just the highly of my trip. I highly recommend Rio2Fly, you wont regret it because they are just so friendly and professional
This was a unique experience we both never flew in a helicopter and they accommodated us fully and found the sweet spot to fly out so we could see Christ the Redeemer.
What an amazing experience! Forget the traffic and the queues, if you can take to the skies and see Rio you won’t regret it. From booking via WhatsApp (super easy and helpful) to taking to the air with our pilot Lohana - our private hour flight was marvellous. We saw all the famous beaches, Maracana Stadium, Sugar Loaf Mountain, could practically touch Christ The Redeemer! An hour you will never forget. Thank you and thoroughly would recommend.
It was an amazing experience watching the views of Rio during the sunset! We did a private tour and everything from the arrival and waiting time to the helicopter tour itself was excellent!
Absolutely unbelievable and highly recommended. The views you get of the city & Christ the Redeemer were amazing! We did the private helicopter tour, so it was just the tour of us, and that was perfect. Both sat at the back and both had amazing views! Highlight of our time in Rio! Don't hesitate to book!
Amazing ! Great staff, great venue, great Copters, great pilots, amazing trips, perfect from A to Z ! Not much more to say, just amazing !
This was one of the most awesome experiences of a lifetime. Being able to see Rio from the air was amazing. The pilot was wonderful as well as the ground team!! Something I will surely do again….
Rio was de city that I decided to do my first ever helicopter trip and I chose the best company to do it. We opted to do the private helicopter tour so my partner sat in the front with the pilot and I was in the back, we both had the best view for a 30 minute flight, flying over some breath taking beaches, sugar loaf, Christ the Redeemer and back to Rio2FLY base. The booking process was easy and clear, all options given to us, felt very welcomed on arrival and after we finish our tour. Definitely highly recommended. The pictures speak for it self. Thank you to entire team at Rio2FLY, truly enjoyed my experience.
We had a wonderful helicopter flight over Rio. The flight time was 30 minutes which was just perfect and gave us enough time to see everything. It was such an amazing experience and a wonderful way to enjoy the views. The staff were all incredibly helpful - with organising beforehand as well as when we were there. We had an unforgettable time and would highly recommend this to anyone who is visiting Rio.
The helicopter airport is a bit far (50 minute car ride) from Copacabana Beach where our hotel was. At first we were concerned because of the distance but as it turned out, we could not have been happier. The flight was well worth the ride to get there. Most of the closer helicopter sites gave you about a 15 minute flight over the Christ Redeemer Statue and Sugar Loaf Mountain. This flight was over 30 minutes with flights over Ipanema and Copacabana Beach, as well as multiple other views of the city and nearby mountains. The staff at the helicopter port were very friendly and hospitable. Great experience, would highly recommend. 👍🏻🚁👌🏻
The best way to see Rio! The ride was so smooth and the views are incredible. Great company to do the ride. Recommended 100%
Absolutely amazing and very professional. One of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. Cannot recommend this enough
The whole experience from chatting online, booking the trip, reception on arrival and flight was ‘maravilhoso’ - we loved it.
Our flight was cancelled due to bad weather but were offered another flight day straight away, was given plenty of notice about visibility on the day so we could push our flight back in order to let the mist clear aswell.
Unforgettable experience with amazing views across the whole flight. Everything went smoothly, we definitely recommend this trip.
We did the Without door Flight and it was one of the best Travel Experiences of my life. Felt like I’m in GTA 😂 with amazing views on Ipanema Beach, Copacabana and of Course the Cristo Rei Statue was just magical. 10/10 recommendation
This was definitely the best experience we had in Rio. The ride was smooth (I was nervous because I don’t like heights but it wasn’t scary at all!) and the views are just out of this world. And everyone at Rio2Fly is friendly and helpful from the moment you book. Really amazing company and experience!
A very profesional outfit, great communication on WhatsApp beforehand. The day of the flight it was a 1 hour Uber ride from Copacabana beach. We gave our details in a comfortable air conditioned lounge with rest room and beverages. We were taken to the helicopter by golf buggy (100 feet) the pilot was very nice and gave us a fantastic 30 minute tour of Rio. Sitting on the left I got the best view of the coast whilst my husband on the right got the best view of Christ the redeemer. I felt safe at all times and really enjoyed it. I thoroughly recommend this trip. We’ve done many different helicopter tours before and I’d always opt for the private tour as you’re guaranteed a window seat and are not squashed. This tour really stood out and is an unforgettable experience.
We rescheduled easily due to the weather and visibility…it was high clouds when we went a few days later and had some greats views!!!
The service was great and everything went smooth from start till end. We had the best day flying over Rio in an open door helicopter! Seeing the «Christ statue» from above just felt unreal. Our pilot did two rounds around it, which was great! Our pilot was also super calm and told us what we flew over etc. Would definitely reccomend seeing Rio from above with Rio2Fly!
for me it was the first experience of Bor with a helicopter, so I was impressed! and your team was very nice, the experienced pilot, who described to us all the attractive points!
Everything organized, warm welcome, I recommend ordering a shot before take off for courage 😁 The tour itsefl is very beautiful and unique
It was the best experience we’ve ever had! Everything was perfect, assistants were polite and helpful, the pilot told us about places we were flying over, he speaks English well. We love it!
We loved our experience flying with Rio2Fly. The service was professional, friendly and well organised. The flight was brilliant and we felt safe in the helicopter and with the pilot.
We had an amazing VIP helicopter experience with Rio2Fly! Starting our journey from Copacabana, the taxi ride to the launch site was smooth and our driver was super friendly. Once airborne, our pilot expertly guided us over Rio’s top 17 landmarks, including a stunning pass over the lakes, all within a relaxed 30-minute flight. The views were incredible and the service was top-notch, making us feel like VIPs from start to finish. Highly recommend Rio2Fly for anyone looking to see Rio from a different angle—it’s definitely worth every penny!
Amazing tour ! Super professional and accomodating staff from the very beginning until the end. The landscape were insane. The flight without doors was a bit scary but safe. Totally recommend !
Hi there, our experience was so good. Everything went well and in time. Whole area looks so good, staff was very kind. We got fresh coffee while we were waiting for our flight in the luxury waiting room. The pilot described all spots during flight. Around statue of Christ there were bit cloudy, pilot flew around several time, so we had possibility to make nice picture and we took away nice experience. And we would like to say hi your friendly dog! We can recommend your company. Richard. Czech Republic
Amazing experience. The company was incredibile to work with and so accommodating. Beware of Rio traffic and give yourself extra time. It took us 3 hours to arrive at the helicopter pad. Totally worth it. Thank you Rio2Fly for such and incredible once in a lifetime experience.
Amazing experience! My partner and I did 30 minutes open air and couldn’t have been happier!!! Great english was spoken-we felt comfortable on the ground, on helipad, and in the air! Go Fly!!
the views were incredible, such an amazing once in a lifetime experience!!! totally worth the money. Also the service was also great, we were treated with respect and offered drinks as soon as we arrived
Great vip exclusive flight in doorless R44 round Christmas the Redeemer and down the coast.. First helicoptor flight for my wife which she loved. They had just moved into a lovely new setup with aircon, drinks etc. It is a little easy out of town but most heli tours are. Great time thank you. 😃
