15 Best Day Trips from Rio de Janeiro

The marvelous city of Rio is located on the South Atlantic coast and is the second largest city in Brazil with several districts. Rio de Janeiro was founded in 1565 by Portuguese colonialists. This captivating city is famous for its laidback beach culture, its breathtaking landscapes, the mixed architecture, villages that have been transformed into hip towns, and most of all, its annual carnival. It is one of the most visited cities in the southern hemisphere.

Parts of Rio have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites for their spectacular beauty. There are so many places to explore on a day trip, to experience the incredible city and its neighboring areas. Here is our list of the 15 best day trips from Rio:

1. Cristo Redentor

The world­famous statue of “Christ the Redeemer” was constructed between 1922 and 1931. The 30­meter high statue stands on an 8-metre pedestal and stretches out its hands to a width of 28m. The Cristo Redentor statue is made of reinforced soapstone and concrete. This statue weighs 635 metric tons.

The gigantic statue of Jesus Christ was designed by Paul Landowski, a Polish-French sculptor, and constructed by engineers Heitor da Silva Costa and Albert Caquot. The construction of this symbol of Christianity is famous across the world was almost entirely financed by the Brazilian Catholics.

The open-armed statue is strategically situated at the top of the Corcovado Mountain which is found in the Tijuca Forest. The mountain is 700m high and for this reason, the statue is visible from almost every corner of the city.

It will take you approximately 30 minutes to get to the top of the mountain using gauge trains that are commonly used by the public.

Recommended tour : Christ the Redeemer, Selarón Stairs & Sugar Loaf Sunset Tour

2. Tijuca Forest National Park

The Tijuca Forest is said to be the world’s largest forest within a city; it covers an area of 32km2. Within this tropical rainforest is a 3,953­hectare national park which was established in 1867.

The park protects the Tijuca forest which was the first replanted forest in the world, starting in the 1850s after the land was almost destroyed completely by coffee farmers. It also protects a couple of waterfalls and a multitude of trails as well as the historical ruins of the coffee age.

Tijuca National Park is home to the Christ the Redeemer statue which stands on Corcovado. The park also has several viewpoints that overlook the city. For this reason, the Tijuca National Park is a popular tourist destination.

On your trip to the Tijuca Forest and National Park, expect to spot some hawks, toucans, Capuchin monkeys, brilliant blue butterflies, and the colorful Brazilian racoons.

Suggested tour : Rio: Half-Day Jeep Tour at Floresta da Tijuca

3. Petropolis

The Petropolis is an elegant resort situated in the highly forested valley of Serra dos Orgaos. Here you will find the Imperial Museum which was the former Summer Palace of King Pedro II. The museum houses really important memorabilia from the Brazilian history.

4. Volta Redonda

In addition to the museums, other attractions in Volta Redonda include galleries and breweries. The surrounding countryside features picturesque hills and valleys. Tourists come here to try out some extreme sports such as zip-lining.

5. Prainha Beach

In Portuguese, Prainha means “Little Beach.” Prainha is one of the cleanest beaches in Rio and a favorite among nature lovers.

This half­moon beach is one of the popular surfing spots in the city. Prainha Beach is bordered on the sides by rocks, high cliffs, and cool evergreen mountains adding to its breathtaking beauty. This beach is surrounded by a tropical rainforest. Make a trip to this must­visit beach to explore the wildlife that hides within the rocks.

If you are looking for that cozy feeling of isolation, come to Prainha. There are numerous splendid views in store for you.

The best time to visit Prainha Beach is on weekdays to avoid the crowds that flock to this beach on weekends. The beach has black sands of volcanic origin, a couple of cute kiosks, restaurants, and enormous waves.

6. Angra Dos Reis

Angra Dos Reis translates to “Creek of the Kings.” This amazing archipelago made up of 365 islands was discovered in 1502. Angra Dos Reis is located 168km to the south of Rio de Janeiro, at an altitude of 6m.

This amazing port makes a great destination for a day trip thanks to the abundant markets, churches, buildings, and gorgeous isolated beaches. There are endless opportunities for adventure in Angra Dos Reis. This city does not disappoint; you will feel like you’re in a totally different world.

You can either make a trip out to the sea or head inland to explore the beautiful treks and the towering waterfalls.

Available tour : Angra dos Reis and Ilha Grande: Small-Group Fast-Boat Tour

7. Cabo Frio

Cabo Frio translates to “Cold Cape.” Cabo Frio is sandwiched between lagoons, sand dunes, and the sparkling Atlantic Ocean. It was discovered on the 13th of November 1615 making it the 7th oldest city in Brazil.

This fairly large town is frequented by visitors who come to see the colonial houses and of course, the beaches. The main beach in Capo Frio is Praia do Forte which has a 7.5km coastline allowing plenty of space for holidaymakers. Other beaches include the Praia das Dunas, and Arraial do Cabo.

8. Ilha Grande

Ilha Grande translates to “Bid Island.”

The underdeveloped Ilha Grande used to serve as a prison island until 20 years ago. Today, the area is fiercely protected. Ilha Grande is made up of hillsides, lush tropical forest, and breathtaking beaches with abundant wildlife. All these features make this island a must­go day trip for every tourist. Once you get to this tranquil island, you will find it very hard to leave.

Besides the fact that this island is home to some endangered species such as the brown howler monkeys and the maned sloth, it also boasts one of the top beaches in Brazil: Lopes Mendes.

9. Sugarloaf

Sugarloaf is one of Rio’s best-known landmarks and one of the country’s top attractions. The peak of Sugarloaf Mountain towers at 396m above the harbor. Sugarloaf is known for its cableway which allows panoramic views of the city. This landmark was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2012.

Sugarloaf got its name from its conical shape. It’s perched on a point on the shore that extends out into the ocean and surrounds the harbor. Sugarloaf is connected to Rio by a low-lying strip of land.

Recommended tour : Sugar Loaf Mountain Half Day Morning Tour

This small colonial town that is located 125 miles to the south of Rio is named after a local swamp fish. Paraty’s town center is full of well-preserved colonial buildings and historic monuments.

At the back of the city is the Bocaino Mountains, which are not only delightful to the eyes but also provide the perfect natural setting to explore the jungle.

Paraty is slightly further away (a 4-hour drive) from Rio compared to other day trip destinations, but you will fall in love with this beautiful city and its cobbled streets.

If you have extra time, make a stop by the sugarcane plantations.

11. Maracana

Any avid football fan must visit Brazil’s largest stadium which can accommodate more than 78,838 spectators. The stadium is used to hold matches as well as concerts.

The Maracana stadium is named after the River Maracana. The stadium includes an arena called the Maracanazinho which translates to “The Little Maracana.”

Suggested tour : Maracana Stadium 3-Hour Behind-the-Scenes Tour

The culturally­rich village of Buzios is located just a few hours away from Rio. Once a fishing village, Buzios has now been transformed into a sophisticated place full of breathtaking beaches and an epic nightlife.

There are 23 beaches lining the peninsula, making it a popular spot for surfers, divers, and snorkelers. The Eastern side tends to be a bit windy while the Western side is calmer and more tranquil.

Buzios’ close proximity to Rio makes it a perfect day trip destination. The beaches are not the only attractions in the village. There is also the Emerencias Reserve which is home to the beautiful endangered golden monkeys.

13. Jardim Botanico

This botanical garden is located at the coast of Corcovado and covers an area of 350 acres. This ecological sanctuary combines a scientific laboratory and show gardens.

The 5 best day trips from Rio de Janeiro

Sep 30, 2023 • 5 min read

On a day trip from Rio, you can head to the beach or check out smaller nearby cities © JohnnyGreig / Getty Images

The undulating landscape that surrounds Rio de Janeiro is studded with wilderness-backed beaches, ancient sites and fascinating smaller-scale urban hubs.

But the fact of the matter is that public transport outside the city lacks efficiency. Trips to destinations that, on paper, appear potentially close – such as the cobbled streets of Paraty or the island charms of Ilha Grande – could well take most of the day, realistically requiring at least a night’s stopover.

With that in mind, here are five amazing day trips from Rio de Janeiro – three doable using public transport, plus two for those with their own set of wheels.

1. Head to Ilha de Paquetá for an island escape

Travel time: 1 hour 10 minutes

As you stroll the sandy simplicity of peaceful Ilha de Paquetá , it can be difficult to believe that a mere hour or so ago you were in central Rio.

This small island of fruit trees, pastel-hued buildings and golden sand is just an hour-long ferry ride from Praça XV in the city center. The island is gloriously car-free, and the most popular way to get around is by bicycle. Rent one from the main street in front of the ferry terminal. 

A short cycle from the ferry is Parque de Darke de Mattos, a leafy public park with trails leading to viewpoints such as Mirante Boa Vista, from which you can look back to Sugarloaf Mountain. One Sunday a month, the streets erupt with samba, and the rhythmic festivities continue well into the night.

How to get to Ilha de Paquetá from Rio de Janeiro:  Ferries leave every 90 minutes from Praça XV (Quinze) de Novembro in Centro, starting around 7am.

2. Catch a wave at Prainha

Travel time: 1 hour 

West of Rio, the unfurling shoreline becomes wilder and increasingly more secluded. Those with time on their hands have endless swathes of rustic coast to explore, but if you’re looking to step out of Rio for a quick slice of tropical beach life, Prainha  is one of the more accessible beach options. 

Lush ascending greenery hugs this wedge of white sand, and its dramatic backdrop is matched by some seriously powerful waves. Prainha is a regular hangout for Rio’s more experienced surfers, and its beauty is no secret – weekends and holidays see the cove fill with Rio residents taking a break from the city.

Large rock formations and strong currents mean that only the most confident swimmers venture out of their depths; the beach has no lifeguards. A scattering of rustic eateries provide simple refreshments.

How to get to Prainha from Rio de Janeiro: Catch the orange “surf bus” that passes through Copacabana and Ipanema or take a taxi. The beach is also accessible by bicycle.

3. Eat fresh seafood in Niterói 

Travel time: 10 minutes

An 14km (8.7-mile) bridge connects Rio with its little sister city of Niterói, and it takes just 10 minutes by bus or 20 minutes by ferry to get there, making it an easy day trip.

Locally renowned fish market Mercado Sao Pedro on Av Visconde do Rio Branco sits a few blocks from the ferry dock and is frequented by many of Rio’s top chefs sourcing their menus. Upstairs, several small restaurants serve affordable seafood. For an agreed price, chefs here will also prepare fish you’ve purchased in the market.

Renting a bike is a pleasant option in Niterói, and a 15-minute cycle from the market is the futuristic-looking  Museu de Arte Contemporânea . Famed Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer designed this looming flying saucer of a museum. The contemporary exhibits can be interesting, but go for the sweeping architecture and panoramic views of Guanabara Bay. 

How to get to Niterói from Rio de Janeiro:  Take a bus from Novo Rio Bus Terminal (Av Francisco Bicalho). Boats leave from the Praça XV ferry terminal. 

4. Explore Brazilian history in Petrópolis

A little more than an hour’s drive north of Rio, at a cooling elevation of 2749ft, sits the city of Petrópolis . Known as the Imperial City, Petrópolis is a stately reminder of Brazil’s days of empire. Created under the instruction of Emperor Dom Pedro II and designed by German engineer Júlio Frederico Koeler, the city was initially populated by German immigrants. 

Don Pedro’s chunky pink-and-white palace is now home to the Museu Imperial , where a collection of objects from his rule is on display. To see contrasting architecture from the same time period, take a turn around the glass and iron Palácio de Cristal .

Down the road is Brazil’s oldest brewery,  Cervejaria Bohemia . Swing by for a brewery tour and a swig, plus a limonada for the designated driver. 

How to get to Petrópolis from Rio de Janeiro:  Take Elevado Professor Engenheiro Rufino de Almeida Pizarro in São Cristóvão from Av Pres. Vargas and follow the expressway Via Expressa Pres. João Goulart/Linha Vermelha and BR-040 to Av Ayrton Senna to Petrópolis.

5. Find your perfect beach in Cabo Frio

Travel time: 2 hours 30 minutes

About 150km (93 miles) east of Rio de Janeiro is the small coastal city of Cabo Frio. The intricately weaving shoreline means stunning beaches are in plentiful supply, and each has its own personality. Favorites include Praia do Forte and Praia das Conchas for their bright blonde sands and smooth turquoise waters.

Fans of surfing and other water sports flock to Praia do Peró and Praia das Dunas. 

A short boat trip away is Ilha do Japonês (Japanese Island), where paddleboarders and kayakers glide over shoals of colorful fish.

For an extended road trip with a hefty dollop of glitz, drive for less than an hour further up the coast to the resort of Búzios . This idyllic fishing village has been liberally injected with cosmopolitan chic. Stop for swanky cocktails and sunset dining.

How to get to Cabo Frio from Rio de Janeiro:  Take Via Elevado da Perimetral in Caju from Túnel Rio 450 Anos and Via Binário do Porto. Follow BR-101, Via Lagos and RJ-140 to Rua Alex Novelino in Ville Blanche, Cabo Frio. Continue straight onto Rua Alex Novelino.
