Why take this tour?

Only 65 kilometres from the City of Rio de Janeiro, in the spectacular mountains of the Serra dos Orgaõs National Park is Petrópolis, the first and only Imperial City of the Americas. Due to its mild climate, topography and exuberant vegetation, Emperor Don Pedro II build his Summer Palace in this city. In this tour, we will visit the most important attractions such as: The Old Quitandinha casino, a symbol of glamour and fun in the 1940s. The Imperial Museum, once the Summer Residence of the Emperor, it has been transformed into the most important museum in Brazil. The Cathedral of São Pedro de Alcantara impresses its visitors with the stained glasses and the neo-gothic architecture. The Crystal Palace, a romantic present that Princess Isabel received from her husband. Santos Dumont's house reveals the eccentricity and genius of its owner, the father of aviation. The Bohemia brewery (the first brewery in the country) could not be absent on this tour. Como to visit Pretopolis with us!
