Group Leader
All G Adventures group trips are accompanied by one of our Chief Experience Officers (CEO). The aim of the CEO is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. They will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting- we think it's the best of both worlds.

Featured Destinations

  • Rio de Janeiro

Brazilians say that God made the rest of the world in six days, and devoted the seventh to Rio. The jagged Sugarloaf rises from dark blue Guanabara Bay, with legendary beaches like Copacabana and Ipanema in the foreground, forested mountains behind. This great city has an enticing atmosphere of samba and fun, and its locals are as joyous as they are beautiful.

Excursions

Rio - A Brazilian Night

Known worldwide, Rio Scenarium owes its success to great live Brazilian music and one of the most unusual and attractive ambiences in Rio de Janeiro. The laidback bar and casa de shows attracts a mix of locals and foreigners. Rio Scenarium stands out among Rio de Janeiro bars, as it helped trigger a renovation trend in Lapa, a historic district with a strong musical and nightlife tradition dating back to the first half of the twentieth century. One of the amazing things about Rio Scenarium is how spacious it is. Four buildings were joined to create it. The two top floors overlook the dance floor and stage at ground level. Antiques are everywhere. There are collections of all kinds - clocks, scooters, radios, mannequins - lining every wall and corner. The bar serves full entrees as well as a great selection of “porções” (finger food platters). 

Rio - Jeep Tour In the Floresta da Tijuca

Jeep tour in the Floresta da Tijuca shows the difference between nature and the city. We will make a quick stop at Macaco's Waterfall for pistures. Later on we will see the Chinese View, Emperor Table, Cascatinha Taunay and Mayrink Chapel. We will also walk through a light trail, giving us a chance to feel the contact with nature. During this tour, people who will explain the importance of the Mata Atlantica will guide us.

Rio - FD Sugar Loaf + Santa Teresa

Sugar Loaf: The height and unmistakable outline of Sugar Loaf Mountain make it, together with Christ the Redeemer, one of Rio's main attractions. This famous landmark is reached by cable car and offers breathtaking views of Rio. The journey is done in two stages: firstly, to the top of Urca Hill, where visitors catch the second car to their final destination. From Sugar Loaf Mountain, the endless beaches of Rio de Janeiro and Niterói stretch to the horizon.
Santa Teresa: You can't miss a visit to this unique part of Rio. Sometimes described as the Brooklyn of Rio, Santa Teresa is one of those once grand, later marginalized, recently bohemianized neighborhoods. It is sprinkled with run-down colonial houses that you stumble upon and discover new worlds. Santa Teresa is a place where you can feel the atmosphere of art, music and history. Charming little restaurants, bistros and bars add a touch of both sophisticated and simple cullinery art options. At Santa Teresa you will find a touch of small town life, with small groceries and family businesses.
