The parades begin at 21:30. **P.S.** The times are not completely defined yet. We will confirm the exact schedule closer to the parade dates when we finalize the arrangements.
We are going to pick every tourist up at wherever they specify at the time of the booking as long as it's within the city limits. Tourists who are close to each other at the main area of Rio, will be picked up one after the other by our guide. Tourists who are staying logistically out of our sequencial pick-up planning, should have an exclusive driver and vehicle dispatched for the pick-up at their places and ride to meet the rest of the group. After pickup from your hotel, travel to the Sambadrome, a specially-designed structure, and watch the Carnaval celebrations throughout the evening. Tickets give access to a cabin that offers an open bar and open food with a rich buffet with the best of gastronomy including hot and cold dishes, options of typical Brazilian dishes, samples of international cuisines, seafood and a buffet of richly prepared desserts.

About Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro sweeps between mountains and ocean, a city of famous beaches, granite peaks, samba rhythms and a carnival known around the world.
Christ the Redeemer stands with open arms atop Corcovado, looking down on the city, and cable cars climb Sugarloaf Mountain for views across Guanabara Bay. Below, the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema are the stage for daily life, with volleyball, kiosks and the wave-patterned promenade, while Leblon and Arpoador extend the strip.
Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
