Botanical Gardens

Immerse yourself in the lush greenery of Rio de Janeiro’s botanical wonders with a guided tour of the Jardim Botânico and Parque Lage. Founded in 1808 by John VI of Portugal, the Botanical Garden spans over 140 hectares and boasts more than 6,500 species of plants, including exotic bromeliads, orchids, cacti, and rare Amazonian flora. Walk beneath the majestic Avenue of Royal Palms, visit the Casa dos Pilões Museum—a historical gunpowder factory ruin—and discover the ecological significance of this tropical paradise nestled at the foot of Corcovado Mountain.

From there, we continue to Parque Lage, a charming cultural and historical park featuring a stunning mansion with a courtyard café, art exhibitions, and serene gardens set against the dramatic backdrop of the Tijuca Forest. A perfect tour for nature lovers, history enthusiasts, and those looking for a peaceful escape within the city.
