Default Re: Planning Girls Weekend in Rio

AWESOME! Thanks so much! I will give Piria a try - is it very close to the beach? There were not very many hotel options near Ipandema, so I thought we had not other choice but to lodge by Copa (since we hope to have a Oceanside view from our hotel). We plan to stay 4 days and 3 nights - last week of August. Is Christ the Redemer and Sugarloaf Mt in the same area? I had plan to visit one on Thursday and one on Friday, but if they are in the same location we might just visit them both in one day. We will be there over the weekend - do the museums and tourist spots close early on any days. I want to make sure that if something is closed on the weekend - that we are sure to complete that activity on Thursday or Friday during the day.

I can't wait to try the Samba schools you have recommended - are they near Copa or Ipandema?

You are sucha great help!
