I am Carioca and a Helicopter pilot and every day I experience unique landscapes, photos and experiences that I believe that all people who pass through Rio should experience. Flying over 5 years in Rio, I believe this to be among the best tours to do. It's a unique experience and I'm sure everyone will enjoy flying just like me.
We will make an incredible helicopter tour in RJ for lats 30 minutes. Passing by the Christ the Redeemer, Sugar Loaf, Copacabana Beaches, Leblon, Ipanema, Arpoador, Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon and others
