Ride a custom open-top 4×4 to Búzios' most dramatic headland viewpoints, watching up to 23 beaches unfurl along the peninsula. Knowledgeable local guides share stories of Brigitte Bardot's legendary visits and the fishermen who still work the same coves.
What to expect
Your driver-guide collects you at the pier in a vintage open-sided Jeep and heads for the Orla Bardot promenade before climbing to the lighthouse mirador, where the full sweep of the peninsula is breathtaking. Stops include the bronze Bardot statue, the fisherman's colony at Manguinhos, and the wild Praia Brava cliffs. Local cashew fruit juice and queijo coalho are served at a hilltop rest stop. The full loop takes about three hours.
Good to know
Tours depart throughout the morning; 09:30 start recommended. Wear comfortable shoes and light clothing — hilltop breezes can be strong. Private booking ensures flexible departure timed to your ship's schedule.
