Best way to see Rio is by... by AGHIOS
Best way to see Rio is by helicopter,hired one for a half a day cost about $500. Local currency is the Cruzeiro Real, but I have no idea of the exchange rates.The Christ statue is situated on Corcovado mountain and you can go up by car or there is a train that goes most of the way. We found it best by car as there is the Tijuca National Park half way up where you can stop and have lunch.
