Serra Verde Express
The Serra Verde Express is a train to the coastal town of Morretes. It makes for an excellent day trip and is the main reason to visit Curitiba. The views from the train are unforgettable.
The ride departs daily at 8:15am, descends through some of last remaining Atlantic rainforest and offers some spectacular views (not to mention it is one of the few train rides in Brazil). On Sundays the train continues to Paranaguá, although the last bit between Morretes and Paranaguá is not very scenic.
There are three price levels of the tickets, offering different levels of luxury: one-way tickets are R$28 for economy class (hard to come by), R$53 for tourist and R$84 for executive class. Buy the cheapest ticket you can get since there really is not much difference between the cars. The return ticket is about 30% cheaper. In addition to the regular train, there's a special tourist train, the litorina, which only runs on weekends. One-way fare for the litorina is R$126.
