About this tour

Our tour begins at 8:30 with pickup at your hotel for head towards the BioParque Rio, a unique experience in the conservation of biodiversity. It is situated within Quinta da Boa Vista Park.

This site, once known as the Rio de Janeiro Zoo, has been transformed into a space dedicated to respecting and protecting local wildlife. It now hosts conservation and research programs aimed at breeding endangered species and reintroducing them into their natural habitats.

Today, the park is home to over 1,000 animals representing 140 species, housed in open areas without traditional cages. Thematic zones provide immersive experiences that connect visitors to diverse ecosystems.

We start by observing iconic Brazilian species such as jaguars, tapirs, and golden lion tamarins. The enclosures are designed to mimic their natural habitats and encourage natural behavior.

Next, we visit the aviary, where parrots, toucans, and macaws fly freely in a controlled environment. This section offers a close-up look at the vibrant birdlife of Brazil.

Interactive areas cater to visitors of all ages. For those traveling with children, the park offers a dedicated space where kids can learn through play. Accessible pathways and clear signage make the experience enjoyable for everyone, with rest areas and on-site cafés providing local and international dining options.

BioParque Rio is ideal for travelers interested in learning about Brazil’s biodiversity and contributing to environmental conservation efforts. Through this tour, you’ll gain insights into the importance of preserving local wildlife while enjoying an engaging and educational day.

Book your spot today and become part of the effort to protect Brazil’s natural heritage.
