Cities

Rio de Janeiro

Rio is built between granite peaks, rainforest and a chain of beaches, so the landscape is visible from almost anywhere in the city. Beach neighbourhoods, the hills and the old centre each work differently, and the cable car and cog railway handle the viewpoints. Four days covers the main peaks, two beaches and a samba night.

When to go

See all seasons

Autumn: Cooler and drier in the south-east; good coastal weather.
Winter: Dry season in the Pantanal and the best wildlife viewing.
Spring: Warming up, rains returning inland, quieter beaches.
