No moment is more electric than a World Cup goal..
Known for its beautiful beaches, carnival celebrations and lively samba music, Rio de Janeiro is the place people go when they want to vivir la vida al máximo! The city welcomes visitors each year with open arms, warm hospitality, pulsing rhythms and incredible food. So it makes perfect sense that the 2014 World Cup would be held here. Be part of the action and scream your head off in the Estadio Do Maracana, one of the largest stadiums in the world which can hold crowds of 200,000 fans. At night, rest up for the next day’s matches in well-appointed and comfortable accommodations..
Before the games begin, take time to explore the historic sites and sparkling beaches that attract many to Rio each year. Optional tours include a visit to the botanical gardens that house over 6,500 species of beautiful exotic plants, as well as monuments of historical, artistic and archaeological significance. A zodiac boat ride through Guanabara Bay will have you skimming past famous sites like Sugar Loaf, Copacaban and Ipanema. Tour Corcovado and see the famous Christ the Redeemer statue, or try hanggliding off one of the nearby mountains. Once the matches begin, see all the action in person at the biggest sporting event in the world!.
