And of course, let's not forget about that year-round tropical climate!

Whether you’re looking for a luxury beachfront resort, a budget-friendly hotel, or a stay in Rio’s charming, historic centre, you’re in the right place. Here, you'll find all the answers on where to stay, what to do, and when to visit, ensuring your family gets the best out of this incredible destination. So, let's get you started on your journey to Rio de Janeiro - Brazil's marvellous city.

Things to do

From a picturesque cable car ride up to Sugarloaf Mountain to a leisurely walk through the historic trails of Tijuca National Park, Rio de Janeiro is filled with thrilling family adventures. So, here we have suggested places and activities that will inspire you and your little ones during your family holiday in Rio.

Easily accessible yet absolutely thrilling, the Rio Star Ferris Wheel is a must-do for every family. The air-conditioned cabins offer a soaring view of the city along with some much-needed respite from the tropical heat. After disembarking, head over to AquaRio. Here, a mesmerising tunnel takes you right into the heart of the Oceanic Enclosure where you’ll get up close and personal with exotic marine life, ensuring both education and entertainment in equal measures.

No trip to Rio would be complete without exploring its iconic outdoor attractions. If your family enjoys nature, a visit to Tijuca National Park, full of breathtaking green landscapes and waterfalls, is highly recommended. Don’t forget a visit to the monumental Christ the Redeemer statue, giving your family the chance to gaze upon one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World.

Finally, let's not forget about Rio's sun-kissed beaches. Offering tons of sand for castle-building, warm turquoise waters for swimming and a myriad of vendors for your food and drink needs, these beaches are perfect for lingering family afternoons. So, dig out those bathing suits and soak up the sun, sea and samba of Rio de Janeiro.

When to visit

As a city blessed with tropical weather, a visit to Rio de Janeiro will provide you with a sun-soaked adventure year-round. However, blending perfect weather conditions with a family-oriented travel schedule requires a bit of planning.

If a beach-centric holiday is your goal, then December to March should be your go-to months. Please note, this is also the peak tourist season aligning with the Brazilian summer. For a more relaxing experience, the months of April and May offer warm, but not excessively hot, weather and quieter beaches. If your family is keen on experiencing Rio’s world-famous carnival, the festivities typically occur in February, but do remember that it can be quite crowded during this time. June to September, the Brazilian winter, offer cooler days and fewer crowds, fitting for city exploration and museum visits. But whatever your preference, Rio de Janeiro's all-year-round appeal ensures a delightful family holiday, no matter when you choose to go.
