Rio de Janeiro

Tenk på Rio de Janiero, tenk på karneval. Tenk på sambarytmer, solskinn, gjestfrihet, farger og ekte feriestemning.

La Cidade Maravilhosa

Tenk på Rio de Janiero, tenk på karneval. Tenk på sambarytmer, solskinn, gjestfrihet, farger og ekte feriestemning. Rio, som også kalles Cidade Maravilhosa ("Den vidunderlige byen"), er Brasils nest største by, og vi vil gjøre alt som står i vår makt for at du skal få en vidunderlig dag borte fra MSCs cruiseskip!

Med så mye å se og gjøre, er det viktig å få mest mulig ut av tiden i land. Våre utfluktspakker dekker de viktigste severdighetene og gir deg de beste tilbudene i Rio.

Mange som besøker Rio for første gang vil gjerne se byen hovedlandemerker, f.eks. den enorme Jesus-statuen (Christo Redentor) på toppen av Corcovado-fjellet (Sukkertoppen). Det finnes også en monolitt i granitt i byen.

Er du glad i naturen, vil Tijuca-skogens skjønnhet gjøre deg stum. Den måler hele 32 kvadratkilometer og er den største urbane skogen i verden. Det er utrolig mange flotte attraksjoner i Rio, ikke minst byens berømte strender. Copacabana og Ipanema er to av de vakreste hvite sandstrendene og simpelthen perfekte for et solbad.

Er du klar for en skikkelig byopplevelse, bør du bli med på rundturen i Rio de Janiero (fotballtilhengere: samme hvilket lag du holder med, er en tur til verdens største fotballstadion Macarena et must).

Den livsglade stemningen og de mange spennende bydelene vil utvilsomt gjøre Rio til et høydepunkt på din cruiseferie i Sør-Amerika.
