Specialist tour operator, Journey Latin America highlight their stimulating ‘Rio Carnival’ itinerary taking in ‘The Greatest Show on Earth’ which happens from Friday 28th February to Tuesday 4th March 2014.
 

Carnival is a wild 5 days of celebration, 40 days before Easter – it is hugely entertaining and showcases true Brazilian culture. It is a euphoric event in which people dance, sing, party and generally enjoy the performance. The mainfeature of the impressive Rio Carnival is the all night Carnival Parades, in which the best 12 samba schools, parade through the Sambadrome in their dazzling costumes with adorned floats. The procession is amazingly lavish and on such a grand scale it’ll blow all other carnival experiences out of the water.
 

Claire Milner of Journey Latin America says, ‘Carnival belongs to Rio. The words are joined at the hip. It’s the biggest and the best festival of self-indulgence, sprawling over a weekend of over-the-top partying!’
