What you can expect

Make your way to the City of Samba and its warehouses to begin your guided tour. Visit the Academicos da Grande Rio depot, where the majestic platform decorations are built. The fascinating display of creativity features a wide array of colorful, shiny, and extravagant costumes used in the parades.

Learn the history of Carnival and the samba as you proceed to the Exposure Room. Later, try on one of the unique costumes and get your photo taken dressed as an authentic samba dancer.
