My experience of Rio during Carnival= triple expensive, triple potential danger, triple crowds, triple everything.

For someone that wants to see Carnival, I say go the week-10 days before and watch the practices, I hate crowds.

I feel the same for 2 days after Christmas until the first half of January in Rio......the 1st  3 weeks in Dec is heaven in Rio, as a consumer.

Thank you for the feedback! When do the crowds leave for carnival?

Going to Rio for the first time in February for carnival.  I really just want some suggestions about where to go, what to avoid. Where to stay. Any help would be nice
