5Great night
Really fun night. Vicente (Lully's husband) mainly looked after us and was charming and helpful. Pick up and drop off was smooth and entry to the venue was speedy and easy. Great atmosphere, loved it.
5What an energetic night
What a night. The Tour operator picked us up in time and brought us to the Salgueiro Place. Our group had a reserved table (which we actually didn’t need cause you’re standing from minute one). The evening was powerful, loud, lots of music and dancers and always with the lovely tour guide Lully - her energy is impressive 🥳 in the place you can eat some snacks and have drinks. At around 1:15 AM it ends and the transportation brings you back to hotel. Maybe you’ll be dancing Samba in the sleep 💤
5Salgueiro Samba Night with Sully
Lully was the best host and may be one of the happiest Cariocas I’ve ever met. We had so much fun at the samba night and it was great to watch everyone learn the new song for 2026 Carnival. If you get a chance to experience the samba school, definitely go with Lully!!!

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).
