In this video you can enjoy the cab ride - train driver's view from the famous historic tram line in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the Santa Teresa Tram (Portuguese: Bonde de Santa Teresa) departing from Carioca station to Largo do França and going back to Carioca station in 4K/60 frames per second. Join us for a ride aboard the iconic Santa Teresa Tram (Bonde de Santa Teresa), a historic tram line that connects Rio de Janeiro’s bustling city centre with the charming hillside neighbourhood of Santa Teresa. Established in 1877, this heritage tramway is one of the oldest in the world and holds a special place in the heart of Rio’s history. The tram is recognized as a national historic monument and runs on a unique 1,100 mm gauge track. One of the highlights of the route is crossing the impressive Carioca Aqueduct, a 17,6 metre high structure built in the 18th century as an aqueduct. It’s a stunning sight as the tram glides over this historic landmark, where 1,435 mm standard gauge electric trams used to run beneath it. The line spans 6 kilometres (3.7 miles), offering scenic views as it climbs from Carioca Station to the Dois Irmãos terminus. Electrified since 1896, it’s the oldest electric railway in Latin America. After a brief suspension in 2011-2015, the tram returned with modern replicas of its vintage cars, maintaining the nostalgia and charm of the original service. This tram is not just transportation; it’s a journey through time. With every turn and climb, you’ll experience the cultural and historic significance of the Santa Teresa neighbourhood and its surroundings.
