No trip to Brazil would be complete without sampling the Rio Carnival. Brazil is world famous for its incredible carnivals and celebrations, but Rio Carnival tops the lot. With over 2 million people PER DAY on the streets of Rio, during the 4 day event, the Carnival is the biggest in the world, and draws half a million foreigners and tourists. If you fancy partying away with the locals, and with your fellow travellers, this is the ultimate place to be.

Christ The Redeemer

We finish our tour with the most famous attraction in Brazil. Of course, I’m referring to the world famous statue of Jesus Christ, located at the peak of Corcovado mountain in Rio. The statue is 130ft tall, need we say more? It’s an absolute icon of Brazil, and a testament to the religious faith of the city. If you are visiting Brazil, there is no way you can go without visiting this world famous monument.
