Day 1 – Rio de Janeiro
The spectacular beauty of Rio is compelling. This glamorous metropolis is kissed by the sun, scalloped by gorgeous wide beaches, and dotted with dramatic mountains. Yet its history marked it not as a playground but as an important port-for the shipment of gold, gemstones, and coffee- and as a seat of colonial power.
Rio’s beaches define its culture: vibrant, joyful, beautiful, and every beach has its own flavor: from great lady Copacabana with its volleyball nets and out-door cafés to the seductive Ipanema; from São Conrado with its hang gliders to the hip, expansive Barra da Tijuca.
