Rio de Janeiro restaurants have a world of epicurean surprises in mind for you! This is a city that loves to eat out, and dining is an occasion to spend as much time as possible over your meal and with your company. For those wanting a location with the highest density of great restaurants, we recommend a stroll along Rua Dias Ferreira, a street in the Leblon area of Rio de Janeiro. Here you'll find some tasty dining options and menus. But, every neighborhood features their own eating establishments, and many, if not all, are worth a stop. As for cuisine, seafood and Brazilian recipes are everywhere, but you'll also discover French, Italian, Japanese, and Mediterranean restaurants in Rio. And, dining is as expensive, or inexpensive, as you like in this city with everything from world-class five-star eating establishments, to those ever present street vendors along the beach and the city streets. The choices are all yours with Rio de Janeiro restaurants!...click here for a list of Rio De Janeiro Restaurants.

Rio de Janeiro hotels make planning where to stay an ocean breeze. The best selection, and greatest concentration, of hotels are along the Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon beaches. These high-rise accommodations offer great views, beach access, and are priced from moderate to super luxury. Staying a little further from the beach will save you money, and you're still only steps away from the Atlantic Ocean. And, if being near the ocean is not on your agenda, try the beautiful and historic neighborhoods of Flamengo, Catet, and Gloria. These areas are also a lot less tourist-ridden. Downtown offers many high-rise hotels, but nighttime can be a bit bumpy in this area. You won't find bed and breakfasts, historic inns and boutique-style rooms, mostly the somewhat modern tower type buildings. But you will appreciate the great locations, negotiable prices, and the huge variety of amenities. Rio de Janeiro hotels have a great room waiting for you. Let's get your reservations done today!...click here for a list of Rio De Janeiro Hotels.

Rio de Janeiro nightlife is legendary. From the samba music pouring from the nightclubs, to the quiet romance of a moonlight stroll on the beach, there's nightlife for every speed, interest, and budget in Rio de Janeiro. Start the night on the beach sipping cocktails and people watching. Then, start strolling the streets to find incredible bars, nightclubs, live music venues, and dance halls. The nightlife goes on until the wee hours in Rio, with many establishments staying open as late as 5:00am. Just in time to watch the sunrise over the beach! The most excitement can be found in the dance clubs and live music venues. Brazilians do not get through a night without samba music blaring and dancing freestyle, or in old-fashioned ballroom style. That's right- ballroom dancing is still big in Rio. But wherever you go, you're in for an energetic, exciting, and enthusiastic night. We've listed some popular Rio de Janeiro nightlife spots for you to check out....click here for a list of Rio De Janeiro Nightlife activities.

Rio de Janeiro recreation has it all! With a mild climate, its coastline along the Atlantic Ocean, and the majestic Sierra de Carioca Mountains, there isn't a recreation imaginable that isn't available in Rio de Janeiro. Many come for the beaches and water sports. Swimming, fishing, boating, sailing, surfing, parasailing, and kayaking are all waiting for you to join in. Plus, just lounging on the beach and people watching is perfectly acceptable as well. As for you landlubbers, Rio has great recreation for you, too! Golf courses are scattered throughout the area, but many are private courses, so your best bet is to check to see if your hotel has been given privileges at the course of your choice. For the more adventurous types out there, the cliffs and peaks of the mountains provide ample opportunity for hiking, rappelling, and hang gliding. Whatever your interest, stamina, and price range, Rio de Janeiro recreation will get you moving! Check out our list of some of the most requested activities....click here for a list of Rio De Janeiro Recreation activities.

Rio de Janeiro tours are a great way to get to all the sights, stories, and secrets of this great city. Tours are in operation year round, and many offer numerous excursions to choose from. The ever-present Gray Line Bus is ready to get you around with all the other tourists, and do fairly good job of filling you in. But we prefer the tours offered by the locals. Their expert knowledge and love of their city can give you a true experience of all things Rio! We highly recommend the customized guided walking excursions offered by Cultural Rio. We also like the motorcycle excursions offered by Rough Trip, as well as the no frills, but highly interesting boat cruises offered by Saveiros. And of course take to the skies with the thrilling, but short, helicopter rides offered by Helisight. Rio de Janeiro tours are the best way to get the best of the city!...click here for a list of Rio De Janeiro Tours.
