Rio Carnival Backstage Tour
At the selected time, we'll meet at the Carnival Experience in Rio de Janeiro's Cidade do Samba. We will explore how this popular celebration is planned.
We'll visit the backstage areas that are not normally accessible to the public. In these rooms, we'll learn how the elaborate costumes are created and admire the floats that parade through the Marquês de Sapucaí sambadrome.
Next, we'll proceed to the exhibition hall to learn about the history of samba and the Carioca carnival, celebrated for over a century. This venue captures the atmosphere of unity and emotion that defines Carnival, an event considered a way of life.
The visit will continue to one of the backstage dressing rooms, where you'll have the opportunity to try on some of Rio's carnival costumes. A professional dancer will provide a short samba lesson to engage everyone.
Finally, we'll enjoy a delicious caipirinha and conclude this experience after an hour and a half of touring the backstage areas.
