Rio is renowned as a tropical, beach city, but there is so much more to discover beyond its sandy shores!
The nightlife here is cosmopolitan and vibrant
With bars open until 3 AM and nightclubs buzzing until 6 AM. The Mérola Luxury Concierge Brazil team ensures you have VIP access to exclusive events such as private boat parties, authentic barbecue gatherings with locals, intimate performances by famous DJs, and last-minute reservations at the city’s most sought-after restaurants.
Authentic Experiences with Mérola Luxury Concierge Brazil
At Mérola, we pride ourselves on offering premium, authentic experiences. One such program is the Vidigal Experience. This unique adventure takes you to the ‘non-touristic’ areas of Rio, specifically the famous slums, or favelas. You’ll ascend Vidigal Hill by van or motorbike, arriving at the starting point of the Dois Irmãos hike. The trail offers breathtaking views, and after the hike, you’ll indulge in a traditional Brazilian dish called Feijoada and a refreshing caipirinha at a local restaurant. To top off this cultural immersion, you’ll craft a personalized kite with the guidance of a local expert.
Local Experiences with a Luxury Twist
Start your day energetically with a helicopter tour offering stunning panoramic views of Rio. This exhilarating flight is just the beginning. After landing, immerse yourself in the city’s beauty through your five senses. Explore the best paradisiacal beaches, rent a stand-up paddleboard to discover nearby islands, and conclude your day with a culinary delight at a famous restaurant in Restinga da Marambaia, featuring live dance performances and breathtaking sea views.
