Best Brazil Packages: Rio de Janeiro

This enormous coast city is famous for its stunning sunny beaches, relaxing parks and gardens, lively sports, and stimulating nightlife. Río maintains a strong cultural side offering much sightseeing, such as historical buildings, museums and some very famous landmarks.

Ipanema beach is the place which is jam packed with tourists when the summer season starts in Rio. All over the beach you will see people just having a nice tan, playing beach volley ball or swimming. Beach events are very famous at Ipanema as tourists and locals come together to play games like beach soccer, beach volleyball, foot volleyball, etc. If you are a good at surfing, body boarding, skim boarding, then Ipanema beach is a good place to be. But stay away if you are a novice, as the waters can be quite rough. If you are eager to visit Capoeira, then Sunday is the best day as the lane is open only for pedestrians. Other highlights include Hippie Fair where you can buy some Brazilian handicrafts or musical instruments and the Street Carnival.
