Step into the heart of Brazil during the world’s most spectacular festival — the Rio Carnival. Over five unforgettable days, Rio de Janeiro comes alive with colour, music, and dance, where samba rhythms pulse through the streets and the energy of thousands of revelers fills every corner of the city. Experience the dazzling parades at the Sambadrome, where elaborate costumes glide past to the beat of drummers, and immerse yourself in a celebration that is both exhilarating and contagious.
Beyond the Carnival, explore Rio’s iconic sights and natural beauty, from the sweeping views atop Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado Mountain to the sun-drenched beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. Glide above the city on a cable car to Sugarloaf Mountain, taking in panoramic vistas of turquoise waters, verdant hills, and the sprawling metropolis below. Along the way, indulge in Brazil’s vibrant cuisine, sip a refreshing caipirinha by the ocean, and stroll the mosaic-lined streets to truly feel the pulse of a city where celebration is a way of life.
Whether you’re a Carnival first-timer or a seasoned festival-goer, this immersive journey offers a perfect balance of iconic sightseeing, cultural exploration, and unforgettable party experiences — all in the city where celebration never ends.
