Book a Rio hotel near the beach

One of the most popular areas for visitors is Ipanema. With the mythical beach of the same name around the corner and some of Rio de Janeiro's best restaurants and bars nearby, you will be sure to enjoy yourself here. If you prefer a quieter area, Leblon is known to be one of Rio's safest neighbourhoods, while the area is more convivial and based on local residents rather than tourists. Leblon also has its own restaurants of renown and pleasant, more laid-back bars; perfect if you are traveling with the family or just want to chill out. If you choose to book a hotel in Copacabana, you have, in addition to the iconic beach, a location close to the seafront with all its restaurants, bars and nightclubs. Chic and elegant Lapa has also experienced a huge boost and is one of the city's hottest areas. Here you will find plenty of boutique hotels and cool bars.

Activities and adventures in and around Rio de Janeiro

A lot of what Rio is about is caipirinhas on the beach, but keep in mind that the city is surrounded by fascinating nature and breathtaking views that just cannot be missed. In addition to the given tourist destinations, the Christ Church on the Corcovado and Pão de Açúcar, just north of Copacabana, offers a lot to see and do. A 1, 2 or 3-day hiking trip on Ilha Grande provides amazing experiences and the opportunity to see a beach consistently voted to one of the world's most beautiful, Lopes Mendes. Here you will find unspoilt and incredibly beautiful seafront where you can escape the city's tourist masses. Other wonderful experiences include the long hiking trails in Tijuca National Park, mountain climbing in Lagoa or riding the cable car over the rainforest to Sugarloaf Mountain. Back down in the city, do not miss the legendary Maracanã stadium.
