All Eyes on Rio as the Games Hands Over

10 Aug 2012
G Adventures announces 2013 Rio Carnival trips

2013 is the year to dance in the sand in Rio de Janeiro. The world’s attention will turn to the Brazilian city as the Summer Olympics is handed over on Sunday and it gears up to host the FIFA World Cup 2014.

G Adventures suggests travellers get ahead of the trend and attend the one event that can be relied on each year to draw crowds to the coastal city and its famous beaches – the colourful celebratory parades of Rio Carnival.

Travelling with G Adventures takes the hassle out of planning as each of its two packages to the Carnival Parade include entrance to the Sambadrome, as well as an experienced Chief Experience Officer (CEO) who is on hand to help travellers make the most of the experience and local culture.

A six-day standard http://www.gadventures.com/trips/rio-de-janeiro-carnival-experience/TSZRCN/2012/" target="_blank">Rio de Janeiro Carnival Experience is priced from $2,009pp based on two people travelling together and staying in a standard-level hotel from February 7, 2013.
