On this behind-the-scenes tour of the backstage area at the Ciudad do Samba, we'll discover how the Rio de Janeiro Carnival is organized.
The Sambódromo parade takes place once a year, but the magic is created every day. On this tour, we’ll go inside the workshop of the prestigious samba school Acadêmicos do Grande Rio, located in the Cidade do Samba.
On the day of the activity, we'll meet at the entrance of the Ciudad do Samba. Accompanied by a local guide, you’ll learn the fascinating history of this popular tradition through its exhibition hall and get an up-close look at the creation of its impressive floats.
During the visit, you’ll have the unique opportunity to try on authentic carnival costumes to take unforgettable photos. To top off this experience, you’ll participate in a traditional caipirinha tasting, Brazil’s signature cocktail.
Finally, after 1-5 hours in the backstage area of the Rio de Janeiro Carnival, we'll say our goodbyes to end the tour.
You can book up to 5 hours in advance if there are any seats left. Book now and guarantee your spot.
