As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
From gorgeous beaches and soaring mountains to the vibrant culture and delicious food, there’s so much to experience in this one of a kind metropolis. Here’s a list of some of the best things to do in Brazil’s second most populous city, Rio de Janeiro
00:00 Overview
00:35 Ride the Cable Car up Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar) in Guanabara Bay
Sugarloaf Mountain is one of Rio's most prominent landmarks. This centerpiece to Rio’s UNESCO World Heritage designation not only looks amazing from the ground, but also offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape from its nearly 400 meter peak.
01:12 Take the train to Christ The Redeemer Statue (Christo Redentor)
Christ The Redeemer is the world famous statue atop Corcovado in the Tijuca National Forest. It’s one of the 7 Wonders of the World and is probably the first thing people picture when they think of Rio de Janeiro. While you can reach the 710-meter summit a few ways, including a strenuous hike, the best option might be taking the Corcovado Rack Railway from Cosme Velho.
02:00 Visit the magnificent beaches: Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon, Barra de Tijuca & more
Rio de Janeiro has some of the most stunning beaches in the world. Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon & Barra da Tijuca and just a few of the many magnificent beaches. Play beach volleyball or foot-volley, enjoy the Atlantic waters or simply people watch as you soak up the sun. There are both roadside food vendors & folks walking up & down the beach selling shrimp skewers, corn, coconut water, caipirinhas & more, so you’ll find plenty to eat & drink at the more touristy beaches.
02:47 Explore the sprawling Rio de Janeiro Botanical Garden (Jardim Botânico)
The enormous 350-acre garden is home to thousands of species of plants from all over the world, including orchids, cacti, fruit trees and over 900 types of palm trees. You can explore the Japanese garden, the Amazonian section, a bee sanctuary and the famous row of massive palm trees.
03:30 Hike some of Rio's majestic mountains like Dois Irmoas, Pedra da Gávea & Pedra Bonita
04:25 Visit the Lapa neighborhood's Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón) & Carioca Aquaduct.
04:59 View the cityscape from the observation deck at Mirante Dona Marta
05:22 Visit Flamengo Park (aka Aterro do Flamengo, Eduardo Gomes Park, and Aterro do Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes)
Flamengo Park is one of the largest seaside parks in the world & is popular with both locals & tourists. The park has beaches, lakes, soccer fields, basketball courts, tennis courts and even a skatepark. It’s home to a variety of trees including coconut, mango & palm trees and is a favorite for birdwatchers. Flamengo Park is also where you’ll find Rio’s Modern Art Museum, Municipal Theater and Cultural Center.
05:56 Tour some of Rio's culturally enriching museums: Museum of Tomorrow, the National Historical Museum, Copocabana Fort, Rio’s Aerospace Museum, the Fevela Museum, the Brazilian National team museum among many others. (Museu do Amanhã, Museu Histórico Nacional. Forte de Copacabana / Museu Histórico do Exército, Museu Aeroespacial, Museu de Favela, Museu Seleção Brasileira - CBF)
06:19 Watch a match at Maracanã Stadium (Estádio Jornalista Mário Filho)
Maracana stadium famously hosted world cup and Olympic matches, as well al the local Rio football clubs Flamengo, Batafogo and Fluminense.
06:39 Partake in the Carnival festivities (Sambódromo, Sambadrome Marquês de Sapucaí)
07:24 Explore Tijuca National Park & Forest (Parque Nacional da Tijuca)
Tijuca is one of the largest urban forests in the world & contains several rivers, waterfalls, mountains and caves, along with hundreds of species of animals & over 1000 species of plants.
07:52 Visit the Lagoon District (Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas)
It’s one of the most expensive neighborhoods in South America.
The Lagoon District is home to luxury hotels, restaurants, and shops. It is also home to a number of cultural attractions, like the Museum of Image and Sound and the Parque da Cidade.
08:30 Take a Favela Tour
Favela tours in Rio de Janeiro are controversial. Some think they're exploitative and unethical, while others think they're a way to learn about the favelas and support the local community & economy.
Some tours focus on the history and culture of the favelas, while others focus on the social and economic challenges locals face.
If you're considering taking a favela tour, it's important to do research and choose a reputable tour operator, ideally a local. Not all favelas or favela tours are equal, but they all carry potential risks. That said, a proper favela tour can be a culturally enriching experience.
09:09 Take a helicopter tour
If you can swing the price, a helicopter tour of Rio De Janeiro is an unforgettable experience.

SAINT LUCIA - Most beautiful island in the world? - TRAVEL GUIDE to ALL top sights in 4K
Saint Lucia is the ultimate honeymoon destination. It has the most beautiful nature and is the absolute highlight in the middle of the Caribbean. There is also plenty to do for backpackers and traveling families. In this video I show you why every traveler should visit Saint Lucia at least once: it's just a place that can hardly be beat!
After Saint Lucia we visit many more gems in the Caribbean. Whether they will match with Saint Lucia remains to be seen! With the best views of the gigantic pitons, overnight stays in tree houses in the middle of the jungle and the most beautiful snow-white beaches, Saint Lucia is high on the list of the most beautiful islands in the world. We sleep in Soufrière, visit the Diamond Waterfalls, hike the Tet Paul Nature Trail and visit the beaches Anse Chastanet, Sugar Beach and Jalousie Plantation Beach. From the west, we drive our small jeep through the rainforest to the south and east, before relaxing at an all-inclusive resort in the north.
This year we travel all over the world and after the Canary Islands, Oman, Cape Verde and Martinique, Saint Lucia is our fifth destination. Follow us on this world tour, first in the Caribbean and then to many more beautiful destinations! We travel non-stop all year round and film everything.

New Orleans - City Video Guide
New Orleans, Louisiana, is a port city straddling the Mississippi River. Its mix of cultural influences makes 'The Big Easy' one of the liveliest and most popular destinations in the USA.
Lined with bars, clubs and restaurants, the French Quarter is known as the birthplace of jazz. It's also where you'll find Bourbon Street, one of the most famous party streets in the world.
Many of the city's main attractions are also found here. Start your day with a coffee in Jackson Square, which is lined with grand old buildings including St. Louis Cathedral.
Cross over into the former Warehouse District, now packed with galleries and chic boutiques. Here you'll find Memorial Hall, Lousiana's oldest museum, dedicated to Civil War history.
New Orleans' distinctive cuisine often gives a fiery kick, and specialties like gumbo are available everywhere. But music is what feeds the city's soul, and at the jazz or blues clubs around Frenchman Street the good times roll on and on, late into the night.

A Visit to New Orleans - Exploring the Sights and Sounds of The Big Easy ????????
New Orleans is a great place to visit no matter what is you're into! It's easily one of America's best cities for tourists! ⚜️
With lots of history, amazing food, jazz, ghosts, vampires, Voodoo and so much more, New Orleans is an amazing city to visit at any time of year! Obviously Mardi Gras is the busiest time of year to visit and who doesn't love carnival!
We stayed in the French Quarter, the historic part of New Orleans, where a lot of the action happens. In the daytime, check out historic Jackson Square with The Presbytère, Cabildo and St Louis Cathedral. As it gets dark, take a ghost tour. We went on the Ghosts, Voodoo, Vampires and Witches tour and really enjoyed it. After it gets dark, check out a jazz bar or party until the early hours on Bourbon Street. The French Quarter is busy at any time of day or night.
I'd recommend a visit to a plantation if you're in New Orleans. We visited Oak Alley, the filming location for Interview With A Vampire and an interesting, and emotional, place. It tells the story of Louisiana’s sugar cane plantations and the slavery which kept them going. It's definitely worth seeing.
The Audubon Aquarium of the Americas is a great way to spend an afternoon, especially if you have kids. New Orleans is not the most child-friendly city though.
The Garden District is also well worth a visit too. You’ll see the filming location for American Horror Story: Coven. New Orleans has quite a few familiar filming locations you might recognise like that hilarious Bourbon Street scene from Girls Trip.
The food in New Orleans is AMAZING! Make sure you try a beignet from the Cafe Du Monde and pick up some praline. Actually, pick me some up too and send it to me!
Overall, I loved New Orleans. There's a great vibe and a cool atmosphere that spreads out from the French Quarter. Easily one of my favourite places I've been to.
