Hey there! Nice to know that TPR members are visiting Brazil! Being in São Paulo is easy to go to Hopi Hari. The park is located about 40 minutes away from the city. By public transportation is almost impossible to get there, but you will find a bus service that takes people from São Paulo's principal shooping malls and metro stations to the park. You will pay about R$15,00 ($6,00) for the bus, R$42,00 ($16,00) to the park entrance and you will spend like $6,00 with food... The bus leaves São Paulo about 9 AM and returns to the shopping malls and metro stations about 8 PM during the week and 10 PM during weekends and vacation. To visit Intamin 8 Looper is a little harder. You will need to get a bus or plane ticket. Rio de Janeiro is about 600-700km from São Paulo! I've never been there. Hopefuly we'll have a TPR member from Rio that will be able to help you with this trip! Feel free to contact me, I'll be pleased to help you to plan your Hopi Hari visit! João

I don't have any picture... but this is from the official web site, you can have an idea of how it looks like! The translation is "Oscar's trash cans spins in all directions." http://www.hopihari.com.br

It seems that you guys like these pictures! I'm glad to show you some good stuff from Brazil! Well... here are some more for you to see... There is this huge foot on the base of the Pyramid that covers Vurang The theming on this flat ride is nice! Katapul!! More Katapul pictures! Rio Bravo! (Mean River) Dirty water... Here is a view from the car on Vurang, when it goes out of the Pyramid... The theming on Intamin Tower! And that's me going to fly on Skycoaster! Over that huge lake! that would be me on the left in the Intamin Tower... the picture is not so good, it was taken with my mobile phone...

That park would be Beto Carrero World. Nice park too!

I have a POV from the backseat... It's really shaky!!! I'll put it on the Videos Forum...

I believe it is exactly the same model! It's veeeeery very funny! I just love it... there are some nice airtime over the hills and great turns! The first drop kick ass!

Hey guys! Here are some pictures from my last trip to Hopi Hari at São Paulo, Brazil... Hope you like them! Take a look at the dark clouds in the sky... BIG STORM! More pictures in the next page... I put Katapul's POV (ex-Thunderlooper, King Cobra, etc) and Montezum at the videos forum... João Zamperla's Buffalo coaster... funny! The lake, Katapul and Skycoaster Intamin's Free Fall at the back - La Tour Eiffel Torture machine! Montezum and Ekatomb (Top Spin) Montezum - first drop from the road The first drop - the roughest ride EVER! Montezum - the lift hill Viking ship empty! BTW, it was like that in all rides, all day! Until it got raining, about 3 PM, I could ride everything like 20 times! Intamin's dark/spinning coaster - Vurang Wild west area... ghost town! Katapul again... and skycoaster! Katapul Where is everybody? Park empty! I guess is because of the rain coming...
