Samba School Rehearsal Visit

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Rio de Janeiro or the port and make our way to a samba school in Rio de Janeiro.

Brazilian samba schools start practicing their Carnival dances and performances many months before the event. Composing the songs, creating the costumes, and assembling the allegorical floats takes time and, of course, rehearsing the complicated choreographies, known all over the world.

Luckily, some schools open their doors to the public so that visitors can see first-hand their Carnival dance rehearsals, meet the dancers, and enjoy the magic of one of the world's biggest events.

We'll attend a rehearsal of a samba school at its headquarters (quadra) and immerse ourselves in Brazil's most carnivalesque culture. Afterward, we'll join the dancers in a colorful party full of music and fun - enjoy the samba capital like never before!

After four hours of unstoppable experience, we'll take you back to your starting point.

Pickup Info

The tour includes pickup from hotels in the south area (Leblon, Ipanema, Copacabana, Leme, Botafogo, Flamengo) and has meeting points in the downtown area of Rio de Janeiro. If you're staying in other areas, please let us know in order to determine a new meeting point.

You can also enjoy this service from the cruise port.

Please note

The itinerary could be affected during Carnival celebrations. In that case, we'll contact you to inform you of possible changes.

Samba school rehearsals at their headquarters do not take place throughout the year. It's not possible to know well in advance when these rehearsals begin or end. If there is no rehearsal option at the headquarters on the chosen date, we'll contact you to offer equivalent alternatives.
