Be prepared for a dazzling display of color and dance when you visit the Plataforma Samba Show. Here is all the heady atmosphere of carnival with brilliant costumes, infectious rhythm and dazzling footwork.

Discover the fantastic fusion of Portuguese, Indian and African influences that has moulded Brazil’s music and dance. Gasp at the eye-popping spectacle, feel the electric energy, and tap your toes to the ferocious beat. This is an experience you shouldn’t miss on your visit to Rio.

Opt for an authentic Brazilian barbecue before the show, or just enjoy the performance. Either way, it will be a night to remember!

Itinerary

There are two options for the thrilling Exotic Plataforma Samba Show: With Dinner and Show Only.

Exotic Plataforma Samba Show With Dinner:
At the start of the evening you will be picked up from your hotel (or the cruise port) in an air-conditioned coach at a time pre-arranged with the tour operator.

You will be taken to a restaurant to enjoy a typical Brazilian barbecue dinner featuring grilled meats and local delicacies. Drinks can be bought at the restaurant but are not included with your ticket. Dessert is also payable direct.

Following the meal, enjoy prime seating for the Plataforma Samba Show – an 80 minute to 2-hour spectacular bringing you all the color and atmosphere of the world-famous Rio Carnivals.

In a feast for the eyes and ears, the talented musicians and graceful dancers will reveal the heady mix of Portuguese, Indian and African influences that has created the vibrant Brazilian popular music of today.

At the end of the Show, you will be taken back to your hotel or to the cruise port as required.

Exotic Plataforma Samba Show Only:
This option includes the show but does not include the dinner.

At the end of the Show, you will be taken back to your hotel or to the cruise port as required.
