Can’t make it to Rio for Carnival? You can still rock the night away at a top samba school, which practices throughout the year for the legendary parade. Hit the courtyard of Academicos do Salgueiro and sling hips to some of the best Afro-Brazilian samba music you’ll ever hear. Learn all about samba schools from an expert guide, and then mix it up with the people of Rio on the dance floor. This lively night of music and dancing comes with round-trip hotel transport.

This excursion was proved as an optional tour on our Viking cruise. Having been to the Carnoval Parade in 2017, we were very interested in knowing more about how the schools produce such an unbelievable product. This tour provided just what it promised and was a highlight of our Rio de Janiero visit. If you have already seen the other major attractions, this is definitely worth your time. And if you ever have the opportunity to see the Parade, don't pass it up!

The samba show is very nice. However the service offered in this deal is rather useless. It is better and cheaper to take a taxi (or use Huber), you will not have to drive around in a minivan fron hotel to hotel. At the Salgueiro Quadra's entrance, buy your own ticket, about 10 USD. Don't worry if you did not book a table, anyhow you will walk and dance the all night. When the show starts everybody is standing close to the dance floor. Take again a taxi when you wish to go back to your hotel. The area in front of the Salgueiro Quadra's entrance looks fairly safe.
