The samba dancing night with Lauren was amazing- she teaches you how to make caipirinhas, dance samba, and then takes you to samba area that no tourists know about. It's a very local, personal experience. I highly recommend Casa Bromelia and its tours!

Description

I’ve been taking visitors to feel the soul of Brazil for years! Together we’ll experience what defines Rio – samba.

We’ll start with a demonstration of how to make a Brazilian caipirinha cocktail. I’ll then introduce you to Brazilian music and teach you some basic samba steps to get you ready for the party.

Afterwards, we’ll head downtown where we’ll hear live samba music, mingle with the locals, eat street food on the stoops of old Portuguese homes, and feel the passion of the music that defines this culture.

The event takes place in an incredible colonial neighbourhood, rich in charm and history. We’ll all stick together, so you’ll be able to relax and take in the energy of Brazil.

The back street party was awesome!!
The back street party was awesome! You get the experience to see how a real local party is! Lauren is so fun, friendly and knowledge, she will teach you different things about the locals.... this experience is great if you are traveling by yourself to know better the night life in Rio. Loved the caipirinhas....
Fascinating Samba Experience in Rio
Lauren made a wonderful Samba tour with us. She led us to places we would never have found by ourselves. She is a wonderful person who is openminded and comes in contact with people very easily. It was a pleasure to be with her and we can recommend the tour for everyone who is interested in the vibrant life of Rio and its music. Thanks to Lauren!
