Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro is one of the world's most visually spectacular cities — a place where dramatic granite mountains plunge directly into the sea, where the world's most famous urban beaches stretch for kilometres beneath a blazing sun, and where the largest carnival celebration on earth transforms the city into an explosion of music, colour and joy every February. Christ the Redeemer on Corcovado and Sugarloaf Mountain are among the most iconic sights on the planet, and they look exactly as magnificent in person as they do in photographs.

For leisure, sport and student travellers, Rio delivers an exceptional combination of natural grandeur and cultural vitality. Surfing at Ipanema, paragliding from São Conrado, capoeira demonstrations in Lapa, a funk baile party in one of the hillside communities, a Maracanã football match experience and the extraordinary biodiversity of the Tijuca Forest — all within a single extraordinary city. Eutouria designs Rio experiences that reveal the depth and beauty of Brazil's most beloved city, always with the safety and insider knowledge that makes the difference.
