Cheap Rio de Janeiro Hire Car & Car Rentals

Rio is one of the only cities worth enduring the age-old (and somewhat dreaded) tradition of shopping for a new swimsuit. The beaches in Brazil are legendary, and Rio de Janeiro is a haven for sun seekers from around the globe.

But Rio is more than just bone-white sand and scantily-clad revellers. It’s also the land of samba and football. Not to mention that famous statue. Grab one of Wotif’s Rio de Janeiro car hire deals, and it couldn’t be easier to explore the lush Brazilian coast and beyond.

Go Cruising

Cruise over to the Urca district in your Rio de Janeiro car rental, then put it in park and hop on the cable car leading to Morro da Urca. From there, take a second cable car to the top of Sugar Loaf Mountain.

Not enough eagle-eyed views for one day? Jump back in your car and head 28km west to Tijuca National Park. At the top of Corcovado Mountain you’ll spot Brazil’s most iconic landmark: the Christ the Redeemer statue. It’s just one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. No big deal (psych, it’s a very big deal).

Road Trip!

Carnival of Brazil tired you out? You’re not alone—that’s a lot of feathers and dancing. Arrange car hire in Rio de Janeiro and head east to Cabo Frio to unwind. This beach town is 150km from Rio, and if charm is at the top of your priority list, this is your spot. Cabo Frio is the seventh-oldest city in the country, but you wouldn’t much notice that these days, with all the bars and developed beach areas and what not. Have fun!
