Highlights

Spend a day at Petrópolis, a mountainside retreat that once served as a summer getaway for Brazil's royalty. On this guided tour, wander through the treasures of the Imperial Museum and then visit the burial place of Dom Pedro II and his family. Marvel at the Crystal Palace, built as an extravagant gift to Princess Isabel. You will also meet the ancient Gothic Cathedral where Princess Isabel was buried along with the tombstones of D. Pedro II and his wife.
