Amazing place, travelled on my own and stayed at the Miramar. Can’t wait to go back
I loved, the sights, the people are very friendly and the food is great. Two thumbs up!
It’s simply just the best city in world. You won’t know if you don’t go! Just do it for yourself once in your life. I promisse you won’t ever regret it!!!
Rio, you photogenic city, you. It's really no surprise songs have been written about this city (yes, you'll probably hear "Girl from Ipanema" frequently). People will tell you to be careful in Rio, but it often makes you feel so relaxed (depending on the neighborhood) that you sometimes forget the warnings. This is how much people like Rio: I met a wedding party from Germany here, and although this was the wedding destination, neither the bride nor groom...nor anybody else from the party was from Brazil.
