There is no better way to get inside Rio’s Samba Culture than this. Although the famous Carnival Parade happens once a year, the ongoing work on the backstage happens every day. You will go to the Cidade do Samba (City of Samba) and visit the Acadêmicos da Grande Rio warehouse and contemplate their costumes, allegories and curiosities. A guide will lead you through a tour where the Carnival Spirit will get inside of you. Learn about the history of Samba and Carnival Parade in the Exposure Room. And after seeing so many carnival costumes, why not try them on? Feel like a local, get your camera and share this moment with your best shots. In the end, make a toast with the traditional Caipirinha drink to celebrate the Samba Spirit! And of course, don’t be shy and try a few steps and shake your hips in this contagious and popular dance.
