Rio de Janeiro Dos and Don'ts

- The nightlife in Rio de Janeiro is incredible. Whether you like Hip Hop, Trance, or Rock, Rio's many bars and clubs will fit your style. Most of the clubs included in our packages have multiple rooms with different styles of music. - The best part about Rio de Janeiro's nightlife is the people. Not only are they some of the sexiest on earth, Rio's locals love to party and are very friendly. - Unlike other huge party cities, Rio's nightlife is spread out all over the city. The hottest clubs are not in the tourist areas like Miami's South Beach or L.A.'s Sunset Strip. If you are not a local, it will be hard to find the hottest spot each night of your stay and if you do find it, it will be difficult to get past the huge lines and bouncers, who do not speak English.

go lie on the beach (watch your stuff, not just the local asses) eat at the pig and go to Help

Don't carry a camera. Yep, you heard right. That is what our front desk admonished when I tried to leave to take pictures. I was stunned and dismayed. No camera? What is the point of being in Rio if you cannot take pictures? The problem is that teens and young hoodlums from the slums prowl the beaches and snatch anything that is worth selling...an expensive camera makes a great target. So, to solve the problem, I bought some fruit at a local mini-market and used the thick, no-see-thru shopping bag to carry the camera, only taking it out when I took pictures. On the beaches, the problem seemed not nearly as serious as warned. I took pictures of surfers and sat in one spot for quite a while. Some of them came over to look (digital) and when I told them I took pictures of surfers in South Carolina, some of them took up station next to me and behind me. That way, no one would be tempted to come and grab the camera with its telephoto lens. Wow! Contrast that with the fact that a day later some radio and telelvision students were doing a class project on crime and asked me to talk on-camera about the Japanese tourist who had been shot in the face and killed right in front of her Copacabana hotel earlier that day. Curiously, the police cruise around in cars and their presence is not obvious. Contrast this with Salvador de Bahia where street crime is almost unheard of, probably because you see policemen in pairs on every street corner in the areas where tourists and visitors are likely to meander. So, in Salvador I could carry my camera openly.
