Our visit Rio De Janeiro travel guide documentary, before the Olympics of 2016, covers some of the top attractions including a food guide (best restaurants and street food), top museums and Rio at night. We also cover off-the-beaten-path activities you won't find in a typical Rio De Janeiro tourism brochure or Rio De Janeiro, Brasil city tour.
25 Things to do in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil Travel Guide and Top Attractions Transcript:
First up, we started with the city’s most iconic sight: Christ Redeemer. We boarded the train as soon as the station opened and made our way to the top of Corcovado Mountain. Sometimes the statue can be shielded by fog, but we lucked out with beautiful blue skies and panoramic views of the city as far as the eye could see.
For a bit of colour, we headed over to the Selaron Steps, which is a tiled staircase created by Chilean artist, Jorge Selarón. Initially Selaron would scavenge construction sites looking for tiles, but in later years as his work gained notoriety, travellers began donating tiles.
Since we chose to stay in the neighbourhood of Ipanema, we ended up spending quite a bit of time at Ipanema Beach. We noticed that this beach was really popular for beach football, volleyball, and surfing. And of course, what makes this beach so iconic are its two mountains, known as Dois Irmãos. If you come here on a clear day, you can catch a killer sunset.
No visit to Rio de Janeiro would be complete without heading up Sugarloaf Mountain, so when the skies finally cleared that’s exactly what we did. We paid for our tickets and boarded the cable car for a somewhat unnerving ride up. If you’re scared of heights, this probably isn’t the attraction for you, however, if you manage to make it to the top you get some really cool panoramic views of Rio.
Copacabana Beach is the most famed beach in all of Rio de Janeiro and if you were to visit on a weekend during the summer months you’d find that the place is packed beyond belief. We happened to be here in winter so things were a lot more relaxed, but that didn’t stop visitors from braving the waters.
We did a favela tour to Babilônia and Chapéu Mangueira. On our tour we saw lots of street art, learned about life inside a favela.
And that is a wrap! We hope this video will give you guys some ideas of things to do in Rio de Janeiro on your visit, and for those travellers who have already been there, feel free to add your suggestion of cool activities and attractions in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Brazil video series showcasing Brazilian food, Brazilian culture and Brazilian cuisine.

Is Rio de Janeiro SAFE to Travel in 2024?! What to do in Rio, BRAZIL?
We both agreed that Rio de Janeiro is the most beautiful city we have ever been to: Rio is the perfect balance of scenic mountains, bustling city and party beach vibes. But unfortunately it doesn’t have the best reputation safety wise and the crime rate is amongst the highest in the world.
So in the couple of weeks before coming here, we were half excited and half scared. Is it safe here? Can we use our camera, drone or even phone without looking over our shoulder.
After spending a whole week here we are ready to share our own story of Rio de Janeiro and things to do with you!

The bustling city of Rio de Janeiro has been one of Brazil’s most popular and frequented tourist destinations for decades. Its vibrant city centre is bursting with culture and pulsating with a deep sense of history and heritage. Rio, as it is commonly known, is the second largest city in Brazil and the third largest metropolis in the whole of South America.
It is the most visited city in the Southern Hemisphere, which is no mean feat. This makes for an impressive, memorable attraction for visitors from all over the world.
Rio de Janeiro is hot for most of the year, and rain is frequent during the period between December and March. The coastal areas are cooler than those situated inland due to the cool breeze blowing off the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. The average annual temperature is between 21 and 27 degrees Celsius. The landscape and vegetation in and around this metropolis are magnificent, providing a visual feast that has inspired authors and screenwriters the world over.
Because of its many cultural and historical attractions, Rio has implemented fabulous infrastructure to cater to the needs of its visitors. This includes world-class accommodation and plenty of tours. Rio de Janeiro was one of the Host Cities™ for the 2014 FIFA World Cup™, welcoming millions of people as they make their way to this international sporting event. In addition, it did host the 2016 Summer Olympics™, inviting sportsmen and –women, as well as their millions of fans, to focus their attention on this bustling destination. Major efforts have been made to minimise social inequality and modernise the economy of Rio de Janeiro to further improve its global standing. This makes for a very special destination.
During your time in Rio, you are urged to see the following fabulous attractions:
• The incredible surfing waves off Prainha. Whether you conquer them yourself or just watch the water-bound athletes skimming effortlessly over and under them, these waves are impressive.
• Tijuca’s lush, dense rainforests, which boast a number of hiking trails for those wanting to experience the fauna and flora first hand.
• Laze on the shores of Ipanema Beach or one of the many other beaches for which this city is renowned.
• Marvel at the sheer scale of the statue of Christ the Redeemer as it overlooks the city far below.
• Take the cable car up Sugarloaf Mountain for spectacular views.
• Stroll down the famous Avenue Nossa Senhora de Copacabana.
• Take an official walking tour of Rio, learning fascinating facts about its historical and modern-day heritage.
• Wander amongst the more than 5 000 species of plants and trees at the Jardim Botânico (Botanical Garden). The palm species alone exceed 900.
• Sports enthusiasts simply must experience the Maracanã stadium, which seats 100 000 spectators and has been the venue of many a heart-stopping match between international football greats.
10 Fascinating Facts about Brazilian Carnival
Here are some interesting facts you probably didn’t know about Carnaval. Number 8 is my favorite.

Here are some interesting facts you probably didn’t know about Carnaval. Number 8 is my favorite.
Every year Brazil’s Carnaval brings millions of people to this incredible festival full of parades, culture, excitement, public street parties and celebrations. Carnaval is the biggest week long party in the world. Video 113
1. Rio De Janeiro’s Carnival is registered in the Guiness Book as the biggest carnival in the world.
2. In Brazilian Portuguese, it’s written as ‘Carnaval’ but for the majority of the rest of the world, it’s written as ‘Carnival’; and both are correct!
3. In Salvador alone, estimations state that approximately 2.5 million people participate in the festivities every year (1.5 million being tourists). This festival has a large positive impact on Salvador’s local economy.
4. Salvador is the “the biggest African city outside Africa” with 83% of the people claiming black ancestry. The difference between Carnaval in Salvador and Rio de Janeiro is that Salvador is an incredibly vibrant public street party with huge blocos and cultural events. While Rio’s main event is the parade in the Sambadromo where spectators watch elaborate floats.
5.In Rio’s Sambodromo, the Samba schools are judged on their elaborate floats, costumes, dancing and music. This is a very important competition and some schools spend over 4 million dollars on outfits and preparations.
6.The Carnaval in Brazil is always held 40 days before Easter, ending at noon on Ash Wednesday.
7. There are more than 2 million people on the streets every day during the carnaval.
8. Brazilian Samba derived from a mixture of African and European influences. Brazilian Samba is one the most popular dances in South America. The dance has evolved over time to become a cultural identity for Brazilians. And I recommend you try it. Don’t worry if you can’t samba; just move your feet, have fun and smile. Brazilians want you to enjoy their culture so don’t be shy.
9. Carnaval is celebrated all over Brazil in their own unique ways. But the biggest celebrations are held in Rio, Sao Paulo, Salvador, Recife, Olinda and Manaus.
10. The word Carnaval is represented as the last period of feasting and celebration before the strict spiritual period of Lent. So, all that dancing, parading and fun is really just to say goodbye to steak dinners for a while.
Carnival is a chance to let people set aside their everyday lives, adorn themselves with costumes, masks and allow themselves to experience an amplified sense of social unity, art, music, and excitement. We are an American family living in Salvador, Brazil. I know from experience that Brazilians want to share their culture and beauty with you. So put Brazil’s Carnival on your bucket list and make it a priority to come and experience the world’s biggest party.
This is Pelourinho, the historical district in Salvador. This is my favorite place to go for Carnaval and to take visiting family or friends during other times of the year. It tops the charts for one of the best afro Brazilian cultural experiences. It’s also the most unique, vibrant, colorful, celebration and is great for families and kids. I highly recommend it.
We moved our family of 7 from Nevada, USA to Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. We came to experience Brazilian culture, learn Portuguese and start a business. We opened a trampoline park called Big Jump on June 30, 2018. We post weekly adventures so please Subscribe and click the bell for updates on new videos. Thank you so Much!

Is Rio de Janeiro safe is one of the most common questions i get asked. We always hear on the news that these countries are dangerous and that there are a lot of political issues. As long as you are careful, and don’t do anything that you shouldn’t do. Technically it is not as safe as Europe, Australia, United States or other first world countries, but it’s just about being street smart.
In Rio de Janeiro, Copacabana is the most famous place in Rio de Janeiro, but I don’t necessarily recommend that you stay here. Overall don’t walk around with expensive stuff on you and don’t walk on the streets at night.
Today it’s quite easy to get a visa to visit Brasil. Uber is legal here and is widely used in Brasil which cost me approximately 40 usd to get from the airport to the beach.
If you want to have internet or a phone while you travel in Brasil or Rio de Janeiro, I recommend that you buy a sim card at the airport, it’s easier than to do that in any kind of store.
The most popular time to visit Brasil is in February, when the biggest carnaval takes place in Rio de Janeiro. During high season, prices are much higher and everything is more complicated. Brasil is south of the equator so it’s summer there during the “normal” winter. Which means that high season is from December - March. It gets really hot during summer here so ensure you get a room with AC as it get way too hot otherwise.
Let me know if there is any other countries or cities you wanna hear about, I have travelled to most countries in the world and keep doing so, so you can just comment below if you have any questions concerning any country or city in the world. I am happy to share some of my life as a wandering trader.
