Rehearsals for the parade at the Sambadrome for groups A, B and Especial take place from the middle of the year and the school courts open the doors for revelers of all ages to heat up the tambourines. The court rehearsals bring together young people, the community, tourists and celebrities in crowded parties, where the battery queens and school muses tend to be a fixed presence.

This isn't a tourist show—it's a chance to experience São Paulo's samba culture through the eyes of a local DJ and music enthusiast.

I keep the groups small to create a relaxed and personal experience where you can connect with locals, discover neighborhoods beyond the tourist trail, and experience the city as it's truly lived. Whether it's your first time hearing samba or you're already a fan, you'll leave with a deeper connection to Brazilian culture and memories you won't find in a guidebook.

The Rio de Janeiro Carnival is undoubtedly famous throughout the world, but not everyone really knows the history of what is considered the greatest show on the planet. The history of the carnival is really interesting and is still alive today because it mixes with the history of Brazil and the city of Rio, with the phenomenon of slavery, with the culture, religion, music and folklore of African origin. In this tour of approximately 7 hours we want to tell you a little about all this and to do so we will start from an area of the city center known as "Little Africa" where the history, culture and art of those who have unfortunately had to suffer the tragedy of slavery gave life to the wonderful spectacle of the Carioca carnival.

There will be no shortage of surprises on this unforgettable day!
