For travelers, the “Wonderful city” is one of those places that complete any bucket list. Book a flight to Rio...
Drink coconut water Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon, Barra da Tijuca — Rio is so special that its beaches are known worldwide. If you’re in Praia Vermelha, you might just pass by Chico Buarque; and if you go to Christ the Redeemer, you’ll see it all, including the rocky masses and Sugarloaf Mountain.
Do the samba Social contrasts are evident, but the festive spirit is just everywhere. Beyond the great "carioca" Carnival, samba and forró dances go on all year, mostly in Lapa and Gamboa. If you try the effervescent Maracanã on a game day, don’t forget to relax afterwards drinking a "caipirinha" to the sound of some bossa nova.
