Carnival in Brazil
Tour Description:
Carnival in São Paulo and Rio, with three nights of coastal reset in between? Oh. Yes. Start with bloco buzz and big-city colour, slow it right down with Paraty’s beaches and cobblestones, then finish in Rio with Christ the Redeemer, the Sambadrome and Carnival at full volume. Brazil doesn’t do half-measures, and neither does this trip.

Included Experience
Sao Paulo: Sit down together for our first meal as a crew, swapping stories and getting a taste of the city from the get-go. Easy vibes, good food, and the perfect kick-off to what’s coming next.
Sao Paulo: Hit the streets with a Local Guide and dive straight into São Paulo’s bloco scene — think live samba, bold costumes, and a crowd that doesn’t stand still. This is Carnival in its raw, street-level form, where locals lead the vibe and you’re right in it with them. Expect music, movement, and pure feel-good energy from start to finish.
Rio de Janeiro: This needs no introduction. Tick this iconic statue off your #travelgoals bucket list. And don’t forget your camera.
Rio de Janeiro: This legendary stadium is where the Rio Carnival parades have taken place in full action for years. And guess what? We got you entry tickets to witness it all IRL. Get ready for an ocean of samba dancers who'll showcase their talent to win the Carnival Champion award. Costumes encouraged!
Rio de Janeiro: Ever heard of Favelas? They're growing neighbourhoods in Brazil. And on this tour, we'll visit Favela Cantagalo near Rio. We'll check out the Portal of Saint Roman, walk through alleyways, see the 10 paintings of the Houses-Screen, and even stop by a few viewpoints along the way. You'll even visit the Museu de Favela-MUF, a historical museum about memories and cultural heritage of favelas in the world. It's a collection about 20,000 residents and their ways of life, and how their stories are an unknown but important part of Rio de Janeiro's history. Trust us, you don't wanna miss this one.
Rio de Janeiro: It ain't Rio Carnival if there ain't a Bloco. Yup, today we'll join a Bloco (street party) and bust a move to some Brazilian beats.
