Just one side of the island is accessible by vehicles. To get to the other side there is a raft ride and a 4x4 trek cutting through the Atlantic forest, on the way back. Guaranteed fun!

During the day we visit the beach of Castellanos and a couple of others.
Lunch would be on one of the beaches.

Rio de Janeiro
After breakfast……..guys tighten your belts coz, we gonna hang glide over Copacabana today.
This truly is one of the most beautiful experiences of Rio you can have.
This is optional and for those easy going guys we have tons of other options like going to the center of Rio and getting to know the day to day lives of `cariocas´ (people from Rio are called Cariocas), or visit beautiful botanical gardens, museums or the local theater which has amazing colonial architecture.
We have all options for lunch ….like street food (Acaraje is our favorite! Its basically Brazilian vada), or any of the umpteen number of restaurants that offer the whole range of Brazilian and international cuisine.
Nothing like relaxing on Ipanema after lunch.
Head back to the hotel by 6pm coz, the nights young! Freshen up. Wear your Latin lover t-shirts and lets hit the night at Rio Scenario. One of the 100 places to visit in the world according to CNN.
This is Rio culture at its best. You will fall in love with this place.
